BizarreTV -
great work on posting that video! A picture is worth a thousand words indeed! I watched it carefully to confirm or reject a suspicion, even installed a
frame-by-frame Chrome extension to better see what happens at the very end of "system update".
My suspicion was that player was running out of memory because of a particular issue (known for a year) where some misconfigured NDK apps (typically games) erroneously consume undue amount of storage. That however does not seem to be the case because:
- You don't have a lot of games installed and only a moderate number (80 or so) of channels
- At the end of the "system update" there was no frame popping up (for fraction of a second) of trying to install the new channels
I am guessing therefore what is happening is the web service which the player checks with is returning there is nothing to install. That would not be a firmware 7.1 issue but rather something on the back end, in the "web team" territory - a Roku department which in my experience is by a good magnitude more troubled and troublesome than the core firmware team. Those be the same people which broke the "vanity code" updates of your other topic.
