Unable to play series and some movies on AMC+

Trying to watch a continuing series on AMC+ but all it does is jump right back to the same screen over and over again. Can get no farther than the play episode screen or blank screen ???

SImilar issue with AMC+ on my Roku devices. The AMC streaming live channels do NOT work and neither does the selected shows/movies from the main AMC+ Channel. It's been days & support has been NO help!

Just last week it worked fine but still today it’s not doing anything. I reached out to AMC but they can’t do anything since it’s through Roku. Guess I’ll just keep putting in new help tickets until they get it right.

Re: Unable to play series and some movies on AMC+

AMC+ is working now but……I keep getting a message between episodes and in middle of streaming that more than 4 devices are watching and I need to stop streaming on a device to continue watching. This is at 3:45 in the morning and I know no one else is watching anything. I don’t even have 4 devices on my account!

Re: Unable to play series and some movies on AMC+

Yes, I preformed all troubleshooting steps provided. I am attaching a photo of what pops up after each episode and at times during a movie. Each time I need to back out of the Roku channel, go back in and hope it works. I’ve tried hitting “retry” several times and it does nothing. I know for a fact I am most likely the only person/device on AMC+. Possibly my son who is on vacation might be using it on his phone, but I doubt that.
