When I turn on my TV, I get the message “Pause live TV has been disabled.” I purchased a new USB, inserted it and formatted it but still get the same message when I turn the TV on. Any idea what’s going on?
Hi @scubachick,
Welcome, and thanks for your post to the Roku Community!
We understand you are having trouble getting the message "Pause live TV has been disabled" on your Roku device.
Live TV Pause requires a USB 2.0 compatible flash drive with at least 16GB of storage. 16GB is the minimum size required to hold 90 minutes of paused TV. USB drives that are more significant than 16GB will not increase the amount of pause time.
If you have already added the Live TV input to your TV, use the following instructions to enable Live TV Pause.
Note: Unplugging the USB drive will automatically disable Live TV Pause.
Some television systems may have a screensaver feature that can affect Live TV Pause. To fix Live TV Pause buffering, follow the steps below.
