"The ROKU Channel" app was working perfectly fine on my Samsung TV. However, as of the update pushed out with a build date of "01/09/23, 22:48:24", my shows have become completely unwatchable. The issue occours when ads play. The issue isn't them playing, it's when they're over and the show is supposed to resume. All that happens is the last ad freezes at the end and nothing further happens. While I am able to go back and select to "resume", this generally results in my show starting back from the beginning every single time, thereby making it completely unwatchable.

Edit Note: Client Version "bef334b"

                  App Version   "1.1.47"

Thank you for having this checked out. I'm looking forward to being able to enjoy my shows again.

I’m having the exact same problem with that Roku app build, also on a Samsung tv.

As of the yesterday, I was able to watch a couple episodes of one of my shows. The issue issue is still occurring to a degree. Exact scenario is as follows...

Start episode, encounter adver mark, ads play successfully, at end of ad run it freezes.

Have been able to continue episode with the following procedure...

Hit back button on controller, wait 10 seconds after screen appears, select resum.

This procedure seems to work but is required at each ad mark. Also, while it seems to not restart the episode by doing this, it does usually bring the timer back by roughly 1 minute. (Approx)

I have the exact same problem on Samsung TV.
