TCL 55s425  /// ROKU TV 7135x

S/N YNOOMY902308       ///    Device ID   KMK97M902308

Software/Build      9.4.0  ///  4200-30   (up to date per update check)

I am not a regular user of this TV.  I have been told this started happening a few weeks ago and has become an increasing problem for the  2 "users" of this TV.  I was asked to take a look last night when it happened again.  It appears that when trying to stream content coming in as HDR (the notification appears in the upper screen left (my right as i view it)  the screen turns into a green block as the video. They reported that it has been happening with AP and D+.  Everything else as far as i can tell is fine. Antenna(no cable) OTA and other streaming seem to be unaffected.  I tried changing videos/content providers and channels, but if i went back to the HDR content it happened again and again...until it didnt and then they watched their movie.  I hunted around forums last night and again this morning finding some similar related content regarding Roku devices, but not the Roku TV grabbing up the info i would need to post.  Hoping there is a solution or one to expect.

No one has come to me and said they had a problem since i posted.  I did find an image on line of exactly what our screen looked like when i was "called to action".

Hi @maypo,

Thanks for the follow-up.

This may be related to a hardware issue. Have you contacted your TV's manufacturer directly to report this issue and request additional support?
You can reach them here: https://support.tclusa.com/televisions or at 1-877-300-8837.

Thanks,

Mary

I have not. Started my journey here.  Everything else works fine all the time, only experienced that issue a few times over a couple weeks and only with the HDR content.  Searching around some more someone with a similar problem labeled it a "handshake issue"   where the signal was not properly recognized.   I did see a video where someone with the problem unplugged the TV for a short period of time and then plugged it in again and all was fine, but apparently he has to do that recently.  That picture i copied in was not a TCL tv having the same issue we have experienced. I cant remember what brand it was though.

Are you also saying that there is no roku hardware in the tv or its licensed and not really yours and that is why i need to go to TCL?
