Re: Remote skips or jumps over multiple channels
Try unplugging the power cord from the Roku. Wait a few minutes or more and plug it back in. I had this problem in early July and I did this. It's been fine every since. I unplugged the HDMI cable at the same time. I doubt that was necessary, but I figured that it couldn't hurt.

Re: Remote skips or jumps over multiple channels
I’m having the same issue. It started about a month ago and it’s happening on two different Roku’s in two different rooms with two different remotes. I changed th batteries so it’s not that. It’s very annoying and seems to be an unaddressed bug.

Re: Remote skips or jumps over multiple channels
Thanks, buddy! I have a Roku TV: TCL model 55R615. Same problem with remote jumping. Suspected this was a software issue as only happened on 2 channels, PBS and Tubi. Bought new remote, same problem on same 2 channels. Unplugged power cord from the TV & the power source. Plugged back in & problem disappeared! 🙂

Re: Remote skips or jumps over multiple channels
It's not the remote. Unplug the power cord from the Roku device. Wait a few minutes. Plug it back in and you should be fine. This happened to me in the beginning of July and I've had no problems since.

Re: Remote skips or jumps over multiple channels
@AlicePavywould you mind checking the Settings / System / About page on the TVs and posting their hardware model numbers and their uptime. After doing that, you can go to Settings / System / Power / Restart device and reboot the TVs and the channels should start working correctly.
