Re: Channel No Longer Loads Correctly
This is happening on all Roku devices/TVs. It's happening on different networks on different homes. Rebooting the router/modem has no effect.
This is a Roku-based issue that apparently is affecting many DP-based channels.

Re: Channel No Longer Loads Correctly
Unfortunately it is most likely that Roku doesn't care. We are not a source of profit for them. They forget that many of us are actual Roku account holders for many years. Have promoted them for years. We subscribe to and pay for paid channels. We can with some effort switch to Fire and move our accounts to there. Basically, seems they dumped us over profit and not over community.

Re: Channel No Longer Loads Correctly
Our DP channels not loading content (all of them):

OTEL Talk
OTEL Universe
Champion Now
Life Altering Events
Latin Wave TV
WOM TV
Our associate DP channels not loading content (we maintain all of them but ISSA):
ISSA TV

In short: none of the DP channels I go check are loading the content.

Re: Channel No Longer Loads Correctly
- Both Direct Publisher Channels that I manage. Muskegon Channel, and Channel 96 Muskegon.
- Other channels appears to be fine.
- Over the last weekend it started.
- Screen cap https://vimeo.com/868038732/6fa59e1650 , and to add, you can search for contents and they do appear in search results and play.
- Roku device is linked to account correctly and activated.
Thank You.

Re: Channel No Longer Loads Correctly
We are also experiencing the exact same issues as everyone else (six Direct Publisher channels). The app loads, fails to populate the home screen with any videos, then displays only a "Search" and "About" options. The search option actually works and videos can be played from the search screen. It's not a feed issue, or network issue, or individual channel issue. It is obviously a Direct Publisher platform issue. We've contacted Roku support and received the same response as everyone else (sunsetting DP, no support). However, in over 20 years in the media business, I have never seen a top-tier company like Roku abandon a platform before the planned sunset date. I sincerely hope that is not the case here. Many of us work with small teams and have to prioritize based on deadlines. And we would very much appreciate Roku's support in adhering to the original sunset date of January 2024.

Re: Channel No Longer Loads Correctly
Eunice,
I appreciate the effort you are putting into these questions. However, it is clear this is not an "us" issue. It is a "Roku" issue.
If you're able, please shift your focus to the real problem at hand; scores of DP channels are dead as a result of a back-end decision made by Roku, and as a result, many of us are struggling to maintain our client relationships.
The fact Roku has told many of us we're on our own is not a feature. Regardless of the reasoning behind the DP-ending for January 2024, Roku should have the integrity to support us as we work to migrate.
Thank you.

Re: Channel No Longer Loads Correctly
If any of you have spent any money advertising on Roku to garner more installations, as we have quite recently, I would recommend requesting a refund from Roku.

SOME people care, but it remains to be seen if they can get the people running and controlling things to "see the light". . . .
I'm in the beta testing of things program so just to try to make things more widely known listed out the problem there. I have received these 2 things back. Hopefully somebody will get moving on the problem, which is OBVIOUSLY on the Roku management and support end and not on people and their individual Direct Publisher channels.
