After 3 minutes, the Hulu App crashes and sends me back to the home screen

After 3 minutes, the Hulu App crashes and sends me back to the home screen. I’ve tried reseting the roku, I deleted Hulu and installed it again. I dont know what else to do.

What happens is that every time I put anything on Hulu. It could be a series, a movie, etc. After approximately 3 or 4 minutes, the app closes and it sends me back to the home screen

Re: After 3 minutes, the Hulu App crashes and sends me back to the home screen

After removing a channel, best practice is to restart your Roku to clear its memory before reinstalling the channel. Did you do this?

Restart via Settings > System > System restart (for Roku TVs: Settings > System > Power > System restart)

I just tried it and it didnt help. I also noticed that its happening with other apps as well. The only app in which it doesnt happen is with Netflix.

I dont know if I’m gonna have to buy a new roku, but this one is new so i dont get why this is happening Smiley Sad

I found out what was happening. It didn't work because my TV was too old for the Roku. I tried the Roku on a newer TV and it worked perfectly. 

Long story short, I had to buy a new TV to get the Roku to work, and it did. Hope this helps
