Re: Roku express + keeps crashing

Hi @Jubinokitsune,

Thanks for letting us know about the issue that you are experiencing.

How are you powering the device? Is it plugged into the TV USB port, or is it plugged into the wall outlet with the provided cables? Please try to connect to a power outlet in the wall using the USB power adapter that came with the Roku.

Please try doing this and see if it helps with what you're experiencing.

Thanks,

Mary
