Re: Netflix playback stuck at 24% on Roku TV

Hi @Rolled_gold78,

Welcome to the Roku Community!

Thanks for letting us know about the playback issue you're having with the Netflix channel and for trying out some troubleshooting steps. If this is happening with all the content you're accessing, you could try connecting your Roku TV to a different network, like a mobile hotspot, to see if that makes a difference.

Let us know how things turn out.

Regards,
Rey

@Rolled_gold78 -

When reinstalling Netflix, did you restart** your Roku to clear its memory cache after uninstalling but BEFORE reinstalling the channel?  Without the restart you may not get a clean reinstall.

Depending on your Roku model number you'll find the "System restart" option under either "Settings > System > Power" or under "Settings > System".   If you don't have sufficient control to use the menus, or if it is just more convenient, you can also restart by pulling the power plug for a short while, then plugging it back in.

**On a Roku TV with "Fast TV Start" enabled, turning the TV off/on only puts you in/out of a low power standby state, it does NOT give you a complete restart.  Use the methods above.

Re: Netflix playback stuck at 24% on Roku TV

Did any of the solutions work?  I am having the same exact issue, stuck at 24% and I’ve done every suggestion I can find on here.  I’ve rebooted TV, changed network, cleared cache, deleted Netflix, unplugged the TV, reinstalled the app, etc.  nothing seems to get me past 24% and I’m frustrated enough that I’m about to just cancel my Netflix subscription

Has there been a solution found for this issue ? I have tried all the troubleshooting steps and it still is stuck on 24% . Netflix is working on every other device in my house on the same network

I am also having the same issue.  it's been going on for months on my newer 65 inch Roku TV.  No other app is giving me the same issue.  All other Roku's in the house work just fine.

Re: Netflix playback stuck at 24% on Roku TV

None of what was suggested worked. How is this still a problem. At this point o would be better off tossing out all these Roku tvs of mine and just getting something else. Kind of ridiculous to have the same problem with zero solutions for years
