Click on the app, asks you to log in every time. No virtual keyboard is displayed so I must go to the app on my iPhone to type login, use the remote to move to the password, type with the iPhone app then submit using the remote submit

Thanks for post @johnsonkmrj

 

Channels on Roku are developed and maintained by the channel developer themselves. We suggest reaching out to MLB.tv support team to see if they have any additional settings or options within their device that may allow the functionality you are looking for.

They blame Roku! Please get together people and make it work. Pontius Pilot defense is weak for the ecosystem

@johnsonkmrj-

To activate the virtual on-screen keyboard, highlight the entry field on screen (username or password) and press the OK button on your Roku remote.

Thank you for the reply, but on line of code to display a mandatory virtual keyboard for the user should be added. Too many back and forth actions
