The Hidive channel won't play on Roku

Hidive has stopped playing on my Roku device. When I click on the channel icon I get a blank black screen. I have already tried the delete the channel, reset the Roku, reinstall the the channel steps. No luck. I am using a Roku Ultra 4800k 2020.

I tried this solution (twice) and I'm still having this issue. Every other channel works fine, but when I select Hidive the screen just goes black. It comes up just fine on my phone and computer.
