Hi Rey

I've only been noticing this on ITVX for the last couple of weeks.

Re: ITVX black screen after an advert break

After several emails with ITVX support, they said: Our engineers couldn't replicate your issue, but have asked that you update your device's software version to 12.5.4178 which may indeed resolve your issue.

However, I have just checked and the latest software available is 12.5 build 4174, which is already in use.

Anyone seen a later build?

Re: ITVX black screen after an advert break

This problem does not seem to be unique to Roku devices, also reported on Sony, Samsung TVs and Sky. Only on ITV X, other channels have not had this problem on my Roku device.

Have believe it is an ITV X bug, go back to the beginning of a program an6 start again seems to fix it but maybe have to do it several times to view a complete program.

Hi,

Are other Members still having issues with this problem ?

No sign of any up dated software patch to sort this.

my current version: 12.5.5 build 4174-E6 was last updated 13/03/2024

Checked today says  "Up to date"

Re: ITVX black screen after an advert break

My Roku is going to black screen after the 3rd advert on an hour long  programme. I have to reload ITVX and press resume where it then works. Never had this problem with my  Apple box
