Re: Roku channel NOT working at all

I have been gone for 5 days.  Upon returning home my wife just happened to check on a movie offered by the Roku Channel.  It seems that without any changes or action on my part (aside from posting on this forum), everything associated with the Roku Channel and Roku Express has decided to work.

I am still on the same fiber broadband system, fiber modem and WiFi router.  In the meantime, I noticed that there has been a change in the Roku Android app.  If Roku has been in the process of a system upgrade that impacted streaming, it would have been nice to have been informed.

Re: Roku channel NOT working at all

One additional note: the Roku Channel has been recently upgraded with a new look/new graphic to the opening page for each title with a new design/ graphic for the play button. Seems to me that the functionality of the new play button is not working. Thoughts, Roku?

Yes, My Roku Channel stopped working. I get the live TV  and streaming options but none of the channels or shows work when I select them.

Please be aware that we are currently investigating and working hard to resolve the issue affecting a subset of customers.
Can you please provide us with the following information:

  • What version/build is the channel (this can be found by selecting the channel on the Home screen and pressing the * button)
  • Tracker ID when this issue occurs (when you see this issue arise, press the Home button five times, followed by the Back button five times, and provide us with this ID).
  • steps to reproduce the issue you are seeing / behavior that you see with the channel
  • Your location
  • Who is your ISP (internet service provider)?

Network IP 192.168.1.136

issue ID 29-312-458

ISP provider Firefly Fiberoptic

My location Afton, VA 22920

Recap of issue: on Roku Channel only. For all titles, with title page open, clicking on episode play button does nothing but revert back to title page. Content will not play. This issue repeats unchanged over many attempts over several days. I have rebooted my router, restarted my Roku device, deleted and reinstalled the Roku Channel app numerous times, all to no avail.

No Roku live, I have reset router and total reset of Hisense tv. Even removed and a complete setup. This happened last week also. I assume that tech reset at some point as they could not resolve issues while I was in chat .
