Any other advice instead of one that looks like a general bot response the trouble shooting that you are saying works is in the manual and the 1st response that comes up on Google not really much help

Same issue with my TV. Same issue for over a year and no permanent fix. Ridiculous. This my last Roku product.

 Now this **bleep** is happening on youtube tv app as well whenever you open the scores & stats popout menu. It is the exact same kind of screen that causes the issue on the regular youtube app with comments. This seems like a roku issue to me. If you clear the roku cache it works fine for maybe a week, then it comes back. Fix this **bleep**!

Hi, @RBM86 

Thanks for posting here in the Roku Community.

We understand your concern with the YouTube TV app on your Roku device. 

For issues like this, it's better to be raised with YouTube's support directly since features such as opening comments, scores & stats are part of the app's functionality. This is more likely a bug within the app itself that the channel provider can address with a workaround or an update to their app. 

You can contact them at YouTube Help - Google Help

We hope for your understanding in this regard.

Best wishes,
Kash
