What just happened to my program on iMdb?

I was watching iMdb on my Roku, and at noon, my wifi reception cut out. After I rebooted my Roku and modem, 

iMdb was gone from my channel list, and searching for it resulted in ‘no channel found’. What’s going on?

Roku does not control tut content or the behavior of IMDb. Amazon owns IMDb and they are incorporating it into the Prime channel. It’s actually been part of Prime for awhile. Also IMDb is renamed Freevee

Thanks! I found freevee and loaded the app. That was eerie, especially since I had been watching X Files! Lol

IMdB gone from home page

Hi. I have been  watching the free IMdB channel. Today I went to watch it and its gone from my home page! I tried to reload it, but its no longer listed anywhere, including the channel search. Anyone have any idea why? I tried to update the system, but it said it was up to date.

IMdb TV is owned by Amazon. They just rebranded to FreeVee.

You should see FreeVee in the same spot where IMdb was in your menu.

Hi @dinorocks

Thanks for the post.

For more information about IMDB TV's availability and functionality, you'll want to contact the channel's customer support team to inquire further. Many channels on Roku are developed and maintained by the channel provider themselves.

We appreciate your understanding.


All the best,
Kariza
