@cm17883  Thanks for reaching out. The issue you are referencing is a Hulu channel (app) issue, and not an issue being caused by your Roku device itself. Hulu is currently investigating this, and working on a resolution for the issue. Once they release an update with a fix included, this should address the issue you're experiencing. Feel free to follow up with Hulu support for more help and further status updates here: https://help.hulu.com/s/article/how-to-contact-Hulu?language=en_US

 

Thanks,

Tanner

No.  It happens with HBO and several other apps do this until I restart.   Then it works for a while.

It seems like almost all that replied have NOT received a viable solution. Roku puts it on Hulu and the other channel’s companies & those companies say “oh well”. I might have to return my Roku and settle for my laptop plugged into the TV. The fact that I can never get to a real phone conversation with anyone at Roku is insane.

Hi - this issues seems not to be resolved. I had roku now for 4 month it it started this “kick out to home screen” about 2 weeks ago. I did restarts, factory resets, but nothing changes this behavior. 

Any escalation advice on this? When you call roku you cannot get a person on the line. 

 

Thx!

This happens with Pluto, Hulu, YouTube, news, you name it. App does not matter. I have 350mbps so bandwidth should also not be the issue here.
