Re: [OS 14] YouTube TV freezes when fast-forwarding

Update:  Bought the Google streamer 4k.  Left it in its bag uninstalled near the Roku.  Since then no problems with fast forward, and I used it extensively yesterday during the NFL games.  Last O/S update was 10/9, yesterday was 11/17.  Seriously.

Re: Fast forward freezing on YouTube TV

Thanks for posting here in the Roku Community, @WAHOOWA!

We understand that you're still experiencing trouble with the YouTube app during playback, and we'd like to assist you with this.

Could you please provide your device details below so we can include them in the ongoing investigation?

  • Roku device model, serial number, device ID, and Software Version. (these can all be found in Settings > System > About)
  • Tracker ID (when you see this issue occur, press the Home button five times, followed by the Back button five times, and provide us with this ID)
  • Channel build version (Highlight the app from the Home Screen and press the Star * Button)

We are looking forward to hearing from you. 

All the best,
Emman

I had to press Home 5 times and Back button 5 times twice to get the tracker ID to appear, so hope it's the correct tracker ID.

Re: Fast forward freezing on YouTube TV

This happens to several of our TV's (not just this one).  TV's use Roku Ultra's or 4K sticks.  

Streaming speeds range around 100Mps to 600Mps.  This has been happening for many months.  Even tried lowering the video quality w/ no luck.  IMG_3847.JPGIMG_3848.JPGIMG_3849.JPG

Re: Fast forward freezing on YouTube TV

Still haven't heard anything from you. I guess no one gets Roku for Christmas this year 😞
