Re: No Newsmax live

Jump to solution

Yes, the big box to click on was missing today, but if you go to the menu on the left,

you will find a live TV option that worked just fine today!

In addition to Pluto, you can also find it on Roku, Xumo, DistroTV, & Youtube!

I can get the sound but no picture by using the live tv button on the left side. Uninstalled, restarted my system, reinstalled and it is still the same.

I don't believe Roku censored Newsmax but the app on Roku does have to update. Try to go to left menu and scroll down to live tv sometimes I have to try several times but it usually works. I hope this helps.

With sound and no picture it seems your tv wasn't in sync with input device. Try turning off for about 20 seconds and reset to input device if that doesn't work try doing the same with Roku device. This works with me most of the time.

I live in the UK and use the FIRE TV app to watch it. it also stopped working today. It required a login, which I registered for. but it does not accept the login. I have had to watch on my laptop

When the Newsmax app is not working, it's a problem at Newsmax, not Roku.

In addition to Xumo, you can find Newsmax on:

The Roku Channel

Pluto

Plex

DistroTV

and even Youtube!

Re: No Newsmax live goes on

Hmm... two years later & the Live Feed still dropping out of the app. Happening on multiple Roku's. Fiddle around with the menu it long enough usually gets it working.

I actually rarely use the Newsmax Channel/ standalone app anymore.  I just watch their LiveTV on RumbleTV or use the Roku Channel LiveTV ch. 150.
