Greetings from the Roku Community, @anandaruchira!
Thanks for letting us know about the behavior you've encountered in which your Roku device pauses on and off while streaming.
We recommend starting here to troubleshoot channel issues. Follow these steps in order:
- Navigate to the channel tile on the Roku home screen, press the * key on your remote, and choose 'Remove channel.'
- Next, restart your device from Settings>System>Power>System restart (If you do not see a Power submenu, skip to the next step).
- After your Roku device restarts, visit the Roku Channel Store and add the channel again.
If the issue persists, please refer to the Support article here for additional troubleshooting steps: How to resolve a channel playback issue | Official Roku Support.
Please keep us posted, and we'll continue assisting you from there.
All the best,

Re: Pauses on and off by itself
I have noticed some obscure reports (around 2 that I've noticed) of pausing/unpausing that seem to require some combination of: Roku mobile app, Samsung phone, and maybe Bluetooth headphones. Do any of those conditions apply to you?
