Hi @Louis_Nenda,

Saw your post!

We are currently aware and our engineering team has been investigating this issue closely.

In the meantime, please help us with the required details below so we can send additional information for the investigation to our engineering team, and once more information is available I'll be sure to let the Community know:

• Roku device model, serial number, device ID, and software OS/version (these can all be found in Settings > System > About)
• does this issue occur on a specific channel? if so, what channel and what version/build is the channel (this can be found by selecting the channel on the Home screen and pressing the * button)

Same problem.  Brit box constantly crashes. Ready to dump Roku.

It is not Roku with the problem.  It works on all my other streaming channels, and it only started when they began putting some new "live" connections.   I goto search, put in the name of a show and go in that way, and can move around once in.  I got a months credit when I contacted them.  I do not understand why they have not fixed it.  I have Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu and two more but no problem.  My TV is a Sharp, several years old and wonder if others are having the same issue have the same tv?

I see there are others with the similiar issue of Roku kicking out Britbox; however, I do not see the answer I received from Britbox. The two Support Rep's I chatted with stated Britbox has a fix for this issue. The fix must be approved by Roku before it is loaded. For me, this issue has been ongoing for 2 months. I do not care where the fault lies, I just want it resolved. I am tired of paying for a service I can't stream. I am ready to chunk my Sharp Roku TV and devices try another brand.

Hi JW6828, I have been doing this also, it works for some shows but not others, and I cannot move around once the show ends I need to exit and search another show.

[jw6828]

I got the same story, that a fix had been made but they did not know when it would be applied. I go to the app every day and manually check for updates. I did find that searching for the show I wanted to watch gives me a link to go in and watch. While I am getting sick and tired of doing this, it does give me a way in. And they gave me a month free due to the problem. I am guessing you paid for whole year. I have checked all the other streaming apps that I use and they work. It seems to be Brit Box. I also noticed it started when they put the new "Live" line of programs up. With the expertise they should have I do not understand why they don't put it back like it was and work out the problem. I worked in IT many years, now retired I still remember we used to just go back to the working version of a program if something went wrong. I wish I knew how many of us are having this trouble. Not that it would help, but it would be interesting. I am tempted to use my daughters Firestick to see if she has the same trouble. I also have a LG tv with Britbox on it but my wife has control of that one. After this month I am going to cancel if not fixed
