Playback Issues - Audio/Video & Power

[yoandme2]

My streaming stick + works fine except that when it starts up it always jumps to the Sling app instead of starting on the Home page.  I have been thru all the settings and cannot find out where to set this.  I do not  have the power on options found on roku tvs.

Thank you

When you turn off the tv, is the Roku running the Sling app? Turning off the tv (or switching the tv to a different input) does not turn off the Roku so it keeps running whatever it was running at the time.

No, I am usually on a different input than Sling when I turn off the system.  It does not start up on that input, only Sling.

I have never gotten an answer to this problem and the issue still exists.  Any help will be appreciated.

I just got my streaming stick + and remember getting prompted at setup for what I wanted to be the startup screen.  I am now looking to change that but I can also not find it in the settings.  There has to be a way other than doing a complete reset and starting over.

Thanks for the post.

If you are looking to add channels to your Home screen, feel free to visit our Support page here: How do I add channels to my Roku® streaming device?

In addition, if you are looking to remove any channels from your Home screen, visit our Support page here: How do I remove channels from my Roku® streaming device?

Thanks,

Thanks, I can add and remove channels fine.  I want to change the startup screen when I bring up Roku.  The default is the Roku Home screen but during installation I chose the Roku Channel.  I would now like to alter that choice but can't find how to do that.

You can't choose a startup channel.  It always starts at the Home Screen.  With a RokuTV you can pick the startup input, but that's it.

That is not my experience.  During install I chose to have the Roku Channel to be my startup and that is what it is now.  I would like to change it back to the Roku Home screen but can't.  If I delete the Roku channel it does start up with the Roku Home screen but if I add the Roku Channel back it then becomes the startup screen again.  I spoke with Roku support and they are looking into it.

Well that's news to me.  I just set up a new Roku (an Ultra, not a stick) and I didn't get any such option.  Let us know what they say.
