Channels & viewing

Yes, I've done all the fixes recommended by Roku but none of them worked.  The only thing that works for me is to reboot the Roku Ultra devices when the pink screen happens. Frustrating that Roku can't seem to diagnose and resolve this technical issue after so many have reported it. I will admit it's hard for me to reproduce as it's very random and occurs across various apps/channels -  so doesn't appear to be app/channel specific.

I too have the Pink screen problem. It's happening nearly every time I switch on my tv now. The only fix I have is to unplug the USB to the tv and that restarts the Roku. It's not a particular channel its the whole Roku box that has this problem. Very annoyed they don't seem to have any answers.

So after having this pink screen screen problem for a couple of months something interesting happened - my tv died! Looks like it was the backlight - or one of them, which causes there to be no picture but with sound.

Anyway, I got a new tv yesterday and hey presto - no pink screen on the Roku! I have no idea how this makes sense, anyone have any ideas?

This happen to me twice with my roku ultra 2022 I bought from amazon just this month. The only way to get out of it is by changing the input (hdmi 1(where roku is connected) to hdmi 2 and back again to hdmi 1) this will sort of restart the system or by unplugging the power supply. Good thing it still within the return window. I am returning it today and will just wait for any update before buying again. I am roku fan and I love my rokus. I even have the full on soundar, 2 speaker and subwoofer in my living room.

I have many Roku's and have only ever had this happen on the two Ultra's I have.  Interestingly enough it has not happened now in quite a few months - and I haven't changed anything... Very odd...
