Roku Streambar - dynamic wallpaper gone

Jump to solution

For approximately a month now, all of the dynamic wallpaper disappeared from my Roku Streambar, save Roku City. I used to have the seasons dynamic wallpaper downloaded, but it is no longer an option.

Is there a way to get these back? It's not the end of the world, but I am disappointed in Roku to have this happen. I can't imagine it was taking up a bunch of room or caused maintance issues. 

Nothing wrong with leaving well enough alone.

My dynamic wallpapers are also gone.

I've had my Roku HD 4K streambar for almost a year. And, during that time I was able to access all six winter, spring, summer, and fall dynamic wallpapers. But, for some reason, they were removed about two months ago. 

The six dynamic wallpapers are still available on my two Roku ultra devices,

I'm not sure you understand what's being asked? They are permanent dynamic wallpapers, not temporary ones. 

The six dynamic wallpapers are: "Winter is Whimsical", "Fall is Fantastical", "Summer in the Bay", "Spring in the Park", "Winter in the Park", and "Fall in the Park".

I have done multiple restarts. Pulled the plug multiple times. I have both Wallpaper Animations, and Seasonal Wallpapers "ON". The problem started before my streambar updated to the software version 13.1.4. So, I don't believe it has anything to do with the update.

Unfortunately Roku, I believe the problem is something only you can fix. So, please fix this issue with the dynamic wallpapers. I love being able to change my home screens wallpaper.

Thank you!

Same here. Suddenly those same wallpapers have disappeared for me as well, but they remain on my other Roku devices. Never understood why it seems that nothing stays the same from device to device, even if you're signed in on all of them. Would be nice if stuff didn't disappear and it was a much more seamless experience across devices.
