Paramount Plus works for shows and movies but live sports will not play. I have updated the app and I keep my player. I have same issue logged into CBS Sports with my paramount account.
I have a fiber gigabit connection and I don't have problems streaming live sports through for example ESPN. It's not a bandwidth limitation.
When I start Paramount lives sports, soccer matches, I just get a black screen that says live guide at the bottom.

FYI. I got it to work. Seems an ad blocking issue. Specifically paramount+ needs to be allowed to get to pubads.g.doubleclick.net. It is ridiculous that this is needed but I setup my firewall to allow outbound access for Roku devices and now live games load properly.

@Dom_P Since live sports depend on advertisement revenue I am not suprised that live sports will not play with an add blocker enbabled.

same problem. Two different Roku devices do not work with live soccer streaming on P+ (Serie A and UEFA). Replays of past soccer games work fine.

Re: Paramount Plus Live Sports Not Playing
It's working for me now after I allowed traffic to the ad site listed in the other site. Their implementation on that is extremely clumsy to say the least but it is what it is.

Re: Paramount Plus Live Sports Not Playing
Hi,
I have a paramount + premium subscription with my Roku Account, CBS sports requests login www.paramountplus.com/roku and enter code. After entering code it asks for TV Provider, but Roku is not listed. So how do I get Cbs sports with my paramount+ over roku account?
Thanks

Re: Paramount Plus Live Sports Not Playing
I owe you a massive debt of gratitude! Have been mad all season that the EFL stream weren’t working. Spent so much time messing around looking for a solution, and this did the trick! May good karma flow over you!!!
