Roku Branded Commercials Freeze
When a Commercial plays for a Roku brand - a device or programming by roku, the playback freezes at the end. With or without the option to purchase, the Roku brand commercials freeze. To unfreeze requires backing out, or Home and playing to continue the program, usually resulting in an additional full commercial break. This problem has become intolerable as it is frequent. Any solutions?

Re: Roku Branded Commercials Freeze
I have been having this issue as well. It is an issue across multiple channels, no shows in particular as it's all of them. It's typically the last ad in a set that will freeze until the channel is exited, causing the set of ads to play over again when returning to the program.

Re: Roku Branded Commercials Freeze
Happens on the Roku Channel. No specific show. When the commericla break is near the end, it freezes. Only way to fix is to go out of the show then back in. Next commercial break, it will do the same thing.
