Re: [OS 12.0] Recent update broke Game Mode on Roku TV

Any updates?

I'd like to add a few things to my previous comment. 

I've noticed that different video sources have different timings between "skips" or glitches. For example, when you hook up a GameCube with HD adaptor to the HDMI port, the skips happen more frequently than the video source I was testing. TO BE CLEAR - I have tested ALL video sources on another TV and NONE of them skip - this is ONLY happening on this TV. The skips seems to be around 4 seconds apart with this source, instead of 10. I've also noticed there there's a sort of rolling effect. It looks like a screen tear between the skip and the most up to date frames, if that makes sense. It is absolutely ugly and distracting and I cannot believe there still isn't a fix for this. 

Please resolve this.

Re: [OS 12.0] Recent update broke Game Mode on Roku TV

This is the first time this has happened to me. But my Tv keep saying no signal. What is going on? Reading these comments and the issue hasn’t been fixed yet???

Re: [OS 12.0] Recent update broke Game Mode on Roku TV

I'm having the exact same issue, we just got a 40' Hisense Roku tv and while I was playing my switch I quickly noticed an unbearable constant stutter happening with game mode on every 10 seconds or so. If you turn game mode off, it fixes said stutter, but then the input lag is so bad it makes games practically unplayable, and I want to put in advance that I don't see a point on giving the exact tv information like the ID and whatnot when clearly many people have been having this issue.

There's something wrong with the software, my old Roku didn't do this and nobody was having this issue until the recent update, so clearly theres something on your end that needs fixing. Please do remedy this situation asap, otherwise I'm going to have to move on from roku seeing as I can't even enjoy playing games on it anymore.
