Re: Roku channel won’t play anything

Hi @Tlmiz,

We'd like to coordinate this with our Roku team.

Share some details.

  • OS and build version (Press Home 5x, Back 5x)
  • What exactly happens when you play content on the Roku Channel?
  • Picture or Video showing the issue.
    How do I insert an image in a post? 
    Upload the video to Google Drive then copy and paste the link

We look into it.

There’s no error, I hit play and the screen just quickly refreshes. 

version: 14.5.4, build 5924-91

The Roku Channel in Roku TV is not working

Try doing either a system restart or unplug the power for a minute and see if that helps clear the cache.  Also, check your network connection on the TV.

Re: The Roku Channel in Roku TV is not working

I see the problem everywhere. None of the solutions work and they want a screen pic of the error. Roku says they are working on it. I believe Roku has a huge problem they are trying to keep on the down low. I see ONN TV’s with Roku doing this and TCL with Roku built in doing this. Roku apparently cannot and will not solve the issue and hopes it goes away. Now I need to buy a new TV and not with ROKU.  As business practice.

Re: The Roku Channel in Roku TV is not working

Hi everyone,

Please describe what happens when you try to play content in The Roku Channel. Does it return to the home screen, freeze, or stay on a loading screen? A picture or video of the issue would be helpful for our investigation.

Keep us posted.
