Solving playback issues

[cvertu]

Hello,

Since 18.08.2024 the ITVX app (ver. 3.17 build 0) has been crashing upon launch after the display of the ITVX logo on my Roku model 3941RW2 - Roku Express 4K+ with software version 13.1.4 build 1510-E4.

Restarting the router, clearing the app and Roku caches did not help.

Could you please look into this problem and advise?

Hi, @cvertu 

Thanks for posting here in the Roku Community.

We appreciate you for letting us know about the issue you have encountered with the ITVX app on your Roku device, and we're here to assist. We recommend performing the troubleshooting steps below to resolve the issue.

1. Navigate to the channel tile on the Roku home screen, press the star (*) key on your remote, and choose "Remove channel".
2. Next, restart your device from Settings > System > Power > System Restart (If you do not see a Power submenu, skip to the next step).
3. Once your player/TV starts up again, go to "Streaming Store" on the Home screen, and add the channel back once more.
4. You may also refer to this link: How to resolve a channel playback issue | Official Roku Support

If the issue persists after performing the provided troubleshooting step, you may want to contact the channel provider's support directly and inquire further about this issue. They can provide a workaround or there might be a need to update their app on the Roku platform since most channels on the Roku platform are designed and maintained by the channel providers themselves

We hope this helps, and let us know on what you find out.

Best wishes,
Kash

Hello @tash,

Thank you for your reply. I did perform the troubleshooting steps you suggested, yet the problem still persists.

I had informed ITVX of this problem on 18/08/2004 and they still haven't been able to find a solution.

If you try installing this app, you will see that it wouldn't function on your Roku either.

Kind regards,

Can

We understand the issue was not resolved after the troubleshooting steps provided. No worries; we're here to investigate this issue further.

We need more information on the issue for us to isolate it even further; kindly provide the following:

We are looking forward to your response.

Thank you @RokuEmmanuel-D

I have only 1 Roku device.
The Channel version & build is the latest, i.e. ver. 3.17 build 0

Kind regards,
