April 2025 Paramount plus error has occurred during playback
Paramount plus “error has occurred during playback” started on our Roku about 2 weeks ago. I’ve read through all the threads about this issue dating back to June of last year.
I’ve done a router restart, a Roku system restart, made sure Roku software is up to date, and made sure the Paramount+ app is up to date. This error pops up when watching Live TV on Paramount+.
All of our other streaming apps work fine. I’d love to hear how to resolve this so I can enjoy The Amazing Race without hassle.

I am having the same issue. I tried what it said in previous threads about removing the app and restarting the device. It did not work. Paramount plus worked at this location on this device just a couple weeks ago. Here is the requested information:
