Hello. I am the owner of TV Delmarva. After discovering this issue I immediately contacted our hosting service tech support. They have given me a timeline of a couple of weeks to implement a temporary fix, and a couple of months for a more permanent fix. Here’s their response to me, as to what they believe is going on, on Roku’s side of things.
“Hello Colin,
The situation currently is that Roku has likely disabled an internal service that is checked when a live stream begins, causing an app error that is exiting the app to the Home screen. This is my opinion based on the facts surrounding the issue. A vast majority of Direct Publisher users globally appear to be impacted.
We've helped dozens of customers submit Roku partner support requests and Roku is stating that they are no longer providing partner support for Direct Publisher and will not acknowledge or fix the issue. It appears they have de facto terminated Direct Publisher approx. 30 days from their press release despite stating it would be operational through Jan 2024.”
Hopefully we will be back up soon. In the meantime, if you have a smart tv with a browser, our channels are available to stream at tvdelmarva.com
Thanks for watching!
