Solving playback issues

@Aebp 

Thanks for the reply.

In some cases, removing the affected channel and reinstalling it helps. To ensure the process is successful, restart your device before adding the channel back in. We would recommend doing this from the Settings menu by navigating to Settings > System > Power (If you do not see a Power submenu, skip to the next step.) > System restart.

For detailed instructions, refer to this Support link: How do I resolve channel playback issues?

Let us know if there's any difference after.

All the best,
Kariza

I am having the same issue but it's with the Roku SoundBar. No matter what app, on first device on, it will exit anywhere from 30 seconds to a few minutes and go back to home. Then if I go back to same app, it will work without any exiting. I have contacted Roku support and tried every possible thing. Changing routers, adjusting settings, factory reset, factory reset + reinstall apps, changed batteries in remote, everything. Now the issue has been sitting escalated from Roku front line support for over a week. Extremely disappointed in Roku - fantastic soundbar but I almost never want to use it now because it's so annoying knowing that every time I want to watch something, I will have to go through the annoying process of waiting for an exit, then restarting the app and show. This def seems like a Roku hardware and/or software issue.

I came here because Roku Support has went silent for over a week with no response. Is there anyway you can follow up to at least let me know the status? My issue ID is: 92-112-217

I am having this same problem  and none of the answers they are giving are helpful at all. This seems to be a Roku tv issue, and they need to fix it. I am getting tired of watching something  and constantly  getting kicked out!

Hi @Piglet1

Thanks for reaching out to the Roku community!

Can you please provide us with more information regarding the issue you are experiencing?

What brand and model number is the Roku TV. What specifically are you seeing? What are you doing when this issue occurs? Does it happen on a specific channel or when watching specific content?

With more information, we will be able to assist you further.

Hi Nimfa, thanks for the update but I have not yet heard back from Roku Support and the issue persists.
