Roku Channel Failure

Jump to solution

When I select the Roku Channel, the channel logo pops up briefly, then the screen jumps back to the channel list. The device is a TCL 49S517 TV. Both the TV and the channel are on the latest updates.

The same thing happens on the HGTV Go channel. That one is a repeat of a problem that showed up about a month ago. I have reported that in a separate community message and directly to Discovery Networks.

Other channels appear to load and run normally.

False alarm. Problem cleared by power-cycling my Roku TV. Note: The TCL TV does not automatically power-cycle when the set is turned off. It may be necessary to unplug the set or throw the circuit breaker if that's easier.
