Hi @Jing1,

A warm welcome to the Roku Community!

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. For us to better understand the issue you're having, what channel/s are affected by this? Also, is this issue affecting all of the 16 Roku streaming devices?

Your response would be much appreciated.

All the best,
Kash

It's all of Live TV channels not working, even inside the Roku app, movies and Live channels not working. All other apps stream shows ok. If you try to play a Live TV show, it goes to show but never plays. If you're in the Roku app and try to play a movie it just reverts back to the "play" screen, movie never plays. I've reset my wifi and router, reset Roku, removed Roku app, reset power, reinstalled Roku app and reset my connection inside Roku settings and still have these problems.

Hi @KarlosRaul,

Welcome to the Roku Community!

We understand and appreciate you letting us know about this issue. We are more than happy to take a deeper look at the situation and determine what is going on.

Are you seeing messages on both channels when trying to access them? How are you powering your device? Is it connected directly to a wall outlet or a TV USB port on your TV?

We also recommend uninstalling the affected channel, making sure to restart your device before adding it back, and then attempting to use it once more to determine whether or not the problem is still occurring after the restart.

Let us know more about this so that we can better understand the main reason for this behavior.

Regards,

Rey
