Roku TV not showing antennae channels in live TV

Jump to solution

Hello,

Antennae channels are no longer showing on live TV UNLESS I select do not show streaming channels in settings.  When I check the box to not show streaming channels, all the antennae channels are available.  When I uncheck the box, the streaming channels are the only ones that show in live tv.

 

This is a change in behavior where previously the antennae channels were integrated with the streaming channels.  This change happened today, so i would anticipate it's an update bug.

 

Thanks for the attention.

WORKAROUND FOUND!

It's still wrong today, even tried yet another channel scan. No new software to download, either.

I tried another suggestion and disconnected my router.  Tada! All my Cable channels now appear in the guide! To finish the test, I plugged my router back in, checked the guide and they were all still there. I unhid streaming channels, and Cable channels disappeared again. Hid streaming channels and Cable ones did NOT reappear. Time to unplug the router again. Good luck, all!

Hi @laura15,

Thank you for posting here in the Roku Community!

We understand you're having a problem with the antenna channels since they were not showing. We're happy to assist you further. Kindly try to perform a system restart on your Roku device to properly reboot your device's system by going to Settings > System > Power (if this is not an option, kindly skip the step)> System Restart. After doing so, please try to re-scan the local channels.

Let us know how it works.

Kind regards,                                                                                                                                        John

My local channels have also disappeared. Not showing in the guide & when I tried using voice remote it pulls up channel 114 streaming instead of a local channel. I have had lots of problems this year. First started with the program guide listing the channels but in the program description area it showed "No INFORMATION" as the description. Very frustrating & disappointing. Their tech support generally are unaware of any problems or won't admit that they exist.

Just like 90% of what these people do to their customers with their untested updates, this is yet ANOTHER total FAIL.  But unlike most of their other bull, now my ROKU TV can't even get local channels.  I don't have ANY workaround other than going and getting a DTV box, and that ladies and gentlemen, is the day I get rid of this TV and literally EVERY Roku device in this house.  ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

Same problem here with two ONN Roku tvs.  Have to go to settings>tv inputs>live tv>manage channels, and hide streaming channels I order to see antenna broadcast.  Samsung tv in same house is fine.  Bad software update.

Hide your streaming channels in setup and local will appear.  Glitch in software update.

Software glitch in update.  Go to settings and select hide streaming channels.  Local antenna tv will then show up.

Same here...no local channels coming in. TV was off for a couple hours. Turned it back on about 10 minutes ago and a news channel came on when it was on a local.

Same here. I thought it was a TV issues since a year after having my JVC-ROKU TV i have had to do resets almost once per month to fix audio issues or video/audio synch issues or lag issues. Today i noticed that the Antenna Input icon has changed and now all i have is the Live Streaming channels. Figured out that hiding them gives me my local channels back. Frustrating!!! I replaced one of my ROKU boxes with an Nvidia Shield Pro and love it better!!! Sorry ROKU!!!
