The Roku Channel doesn't work

Jump to solution

The App loads normally. When I select a movie, it goes to the next page. When I press ay, there's a beep and the screen stays the same. No playback. I've deleted the app, reset the stick and reloaded the app and it makes no difference. Any help will be welcome. All the other apps work perfectly.

Hi, I replied to your message but you haven't got back to me. Could you please. I find it very frustrating that I can't watch the Roku channel as it is one of the important reasons I bought the Stick.
