Streambar going bad? Missing letters or colors out of whack along with audio issues.

I have posted on here previously about the issue with crackling, audio levels going up and down, etc, similar to the dozens of others with this same complaint. Now, I am having problems where the colors are out of whack or only some letters of words show when others don't. (I have pictures, but can't upload them) A simple reboot fixes it.

Wondering if I need to just get a new one. I don't believe our TV is the issue, because this all only happens when watching/using the Roku.

Out of curiosity, have you tried unplugging and replugging the HDMI cable at both ends? It's possible some bad connection is causing issues. Or even replace the cable with another one.
