Re: Paramount Plus Error occurred during playback

Jump to solution

Today, as soon as it started acting funky I had my Roku check for a Paramount+ update, and it appears there was, after that it seems to now be working.

 

My Paramount Plus version is now 7.1 Build 20220315

 

Give it try, maybe it will help at least for the moment.

Mine is not working.  Restarted Roku, update Paramount plus, rebooted modem and wifi.  Paramount+ worked great for two months because I watch all of 1883 and loved it.  This error **bleep** started last week.  Guess I will just cancel.

I just figured it out.  I happened to read that someone had turned on their ad blocker and I remembered that I turned mine on last week.  That's when my trouble began.  Just turned it off and there you go, Paramount+ is working.

This is ad related as I saw the same issue on PC, then figured out on router - saw logs when playing any channel ( movies played fine ), they need the ADS for their sponsors like CBS etc,  added them in whitelist and works

If your router doesn't have ad-blocking then its probably DNS - change to google DNS

8.8.8.8

8.8.4.4

I USE ad--blocking/firewall etc on a Asus Router with Customer s/w Merlin thus could fix it, it maybe hit and miss for some but this is ad-related for sure

As a test, do a Mobile Hotspot on your Cellphone ( AT&T etc ) and let Roku use that instead of your home internet, try and see if that has a difference

You are the only one to suggest a DNS change and that fixed it! You are a life saver.

Nope - nothing to do with ad blocker.  At least on mine.  It's just a bad app
