Roku TV updated to OS 11.0 and GPT partitioned drives don't work

3 days ago updated my Roku Hitachi TV to v. 11.0.0.0 (build 4157).  Now my GPT partitioned drives won't work.  This is a major issue as I have media files over 4 gigabytes.  I reformatted one to MBR partitioned and those work but there is a 4GB limit on those devices.  If someone inside Roku actually monitors these posts and passes along the information, it would be helpful.  Thank you.   Is it possible to roll back to an earlier version and not auto-update?

@Scrubber 

Thanks for the post.

We would be more than happy to investigate this issue further for you. Can you please provide us the following information:
-Roku device model, serial number, device ID, and software OS/version (these can all be found in Settings > System > About)
-does this issue occur on a specific channel? if so, what channel and what version/build is the channel (this can be found be 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)
-steps to reproduce the issue you are seeing 

Once we have this information, we will be able to investigate further.


Thanks,
Danny

Please closing the question for the 100 people who come after you

IT WAS FIXED HOW  ??

I'm confident GPT is the broken part but also am not confident NTFS is supported. 

thanks
