I want to add that Crunchyroll did confirm there is an issue on their end. They would not provide a rough estimate of when it would fixed: only that “they’re working on it”. It’s obviously a Crunchyroll compatibility issue with Roku’s 11.5.0 software so hopefully both parties are working together on a resolution.

Maybe Roku can provide more info on an estimated date of resolution?

Hopefully while they're working on this showstopper (literally!) of a bug they can also do some code cleanup to make the app run faster.  Even on the Ultra, you can count seconds between pressing a button and seeing a change on screen.  On older devices, it's so slow it's basically unusable.

I'm not nearly as think as you confused I am.

I seem to be able to play everything but one episode of one show that was paused in the middle. I'm going with currently fixed on my end.

It seems that a minority of videos will not stream... but most do (!?!)

You're right, the problem isn't quite totally fixed.  I ran into the non-playing issue with the latest episode of Spy x Family.  I tried it over two nights before I finally gave up and watched on desktop.

I'm not nearly as think as you confused I am.

Huh, Spy X Family worked fine for me on the current episode. Haven't had any hang ups once I got past the one episode of Champaloo that was stuck.
