Mine just started doing that two days ago, yes very frustrating. It was also freezing. the main channel thats affected is hulu. Goimg to try the unplugging trick and hope it fixes the issues.

A restart will keep all settings, channels and watch history. Everything is stored in memory (like an internal thumb drive), so powering off and on will not change the contents (like moving a thumb drive doesn't lose information).

Hi @Dwistocki1,

Thanks for reaching out and for your post in the Roku Community!

Our team is aware of this issue. We still don't have any updates on it.

Have you tried restarting your device by unplugging it, resting it for at least 10–15 minutes, then plugging it back in to see if you're still seeing the same issue?

Please keep us posted!

Regards,

Rey

Mine does as well but only on the Disney plus app, none of the others. That's weird

It is also doing the same thing in the Xfinity app. It started for us about mid August.  On both Roku devices.
