Pluto TV Freezes on certain channels

Jump to solution

My tv 75" Class Plus Series QLED 4K Smart RokuTV (model 75R6A5R/75R6AX) has some channels that are freezing on the Pluto TV app. Just to name a few:
1. More tv Sitcoms

2. Pluto Spotlight

3. Pluto Action

I have restarted tv. uninstalled the app. Did a factory reset. Did a system reset. I have fiber internet. Anyone know of a fix? Pluto TV help isn’t helpful so hoping someone here might have some idea

Switch to Firestick...it works there.  I've given up on trying to get Pluto on ROKU.

Agreed with all other postings.  Pluto TV not working on Roku.  Just bounces back to the home screen.  I have three Roku devices.  All different models.  Not working on all three.  Uninstalling and reinstalling does not fix the problem.  The problem is with Roku or the Pluto app not the end users.

I just tried it, and it works for me.  I'm not signed in, so I don't know if that makes a difference.

I'm having the same problem. I just installed a new Roku Express 4K Plus and I cannot get Pluto TV to load properly. It jumps back to the home screen after launching. I have another Roku Express 4K Plus on another TV and it works fine. They each have the same version of Pluto TV, however, the working Roku has a different software build.
