Hi @rcrossenjr
Thanks for reaching out here in the Community.
Does the issue only occur on a specific channel or across other channels installed on your Roku device?
If you haven't tried yet, you can remove the affected channel and then re-install it. To ensure the process is successful, restart your device before adding the channel back in. We would recommend doing this from the Settings menu by navigating to Settings > System > Power (If you do not see a Power submenu, skip to the next step.) > System restart.
For detailed instructions, refer to this Support link: How do I resolve channel playback issues?
Let us know how it goes.
All the best,
Kariza
I threw the tv in a dumpster I will never buy a roku tv again.
Update to my previous post. This also occurs if you initiate playback of an episode within one of these apps and put it on pause. The app will also boot you back to the home screen after 30 seconds of being paused

We are having the same issue. TCL 55"TV. We have the issue only with Prime. I Uninstalled and reinstalled and it will still go back to home screen. A permanent solution would be nice.
Hello @Jared81,
Thanks for your post.
We apologize to hear about the issue you are seeing with your Roku TV. Did you restart your Roku device before re-installing the channel? That step is crucial when performing troubleshooting.
If you haven't tried the suggested order (remove > restart > re-install), we would recommend giving it a shot once again. We also suggest doing the restart from the Settings menu by navigating to Settings > System > Power > System restart.
Does this clear the problem? If not, kindly provide us with the requested information posted above by @RokuDanny-R for us to assist you further.

I am having the same trouble with Hulu, Netflix, Disney+, AppleTV, basically all my channels. I have uninstalled the apps and restarted, checked for updates (all set there) but it still keeps happening. I get about a minute into a show or movie and then get booted out to the Home screen. I can't watch anything right now and I'm getting extremely frustrated.
