Solving playback issues

[PikeBishop]

The reset worked. YouTube now works properly but what a pain in the **bleep** to reconnect the remotes, the speakers and sign in on all the apps. On the plus side the system seems to be more responsive to the remotes.

Well, the reset worked... for one evening! Now it's back to nothing works. When will this be fixed?

Oh jeez, I'm sorry, @KatinVT!

There was an OS update a couple of days ago.  (14.1.4)  Is your Roku Streambar working now?

[KatinVT]

Believe it or not -- I updated that immediately -- and tried. No go! I'm flummoxed.  How about you? Any luck?

I have a Roku Express and every time I go to the YouTube app, I go to navigate to the search bar and it immediately goes black. I tried removing the app and downloading it again but now when I download the app and hit open app, it immediately goes black.

I've not had any problems ever since I reset the soundbar pro. I've done the most recent OS upgrade (?) and everything is still copacetic.

I was the one who first tried the factory reset, and it worked for my device.

When I saw that another update was applied a few days ago, I was worried that the problems would start again, but they didn't.  So I came back here to see if it might have fixed your device.

I'm really sorry to hear that you're still going through this.  I was hoping that it would be solved on this update.
