Re: Roku Channel Won't Play

@AlanAnderson 

Thanks for the update. 

We'd like to look into this issue and help you get back to streaming. Can you provide with us the information below:

  • Roku device model, serial number, device ID, and software OS/version (these can all be found in Settings > System > About)
  • 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)
  • Tracker ID when this issue occurs (when you see this issue occur, press the Home button 5 times, followed by the Back button 5 times, and provide us with this ID)

Once we have this information, we will be able to pass it along to the appropriate Roku team to investigate further.


Regards,
Nimfa

Re: Roku Channel does not play ANYTHING

Why is there not been a true solution to this issue?

Restarting the router/modem does nothing. Factory resetting does nothing. Uninstalling Roku Channel, restarting, then reinstalling does nothing. Everything does not help playback for the Roku Channel. Every other channel works perfectly fine without any issues. Makes absolutely no sense how the Roku channel does not work on several Roku devices. I've spent thousands of dollars on Roku devices to find out if it's merely one device and it's not. A select few live TV channels within the Roku channel will play but that's it, not a single TV series or movie will play.

Seriously would like to understand why this has not been fixed.

Still no fix in 6 days. Should I be opening a service code with ROKU? Would that be of any help at all?

Re: Roku channel not loading streaming content

same issue.  All other channels will load and stream program content. Roku channel does not, it merely tries, then resets to same screen . I have tried all the same stuff as BOB-no difference.

Since this is only on Roku channel I have not done a factory reset, but every thing else--reboot, software update check, removed and reinstalled roku channel, reboot, reboot, reboot.

Would not recommend stock in roku!

12 days and counting. How patient should I (and others) be? 2 weeks? a month? half a year?

Re: Roku Channel Won't Play

3 weeks and still no answer to why I can't get Roku channel programs. I just tried again and it still faills the same way. 

Sending photos once again. Please figure this out and respond.
