Hi @matt_mosley2006,

Welcome to the Roku Community!

We understand that you're having playback issues with Netflix and YouTube on your Roku, and we want to investigate further to address the issue properly.

• Is this happening only to Netflix and Youtube? If not, kindly specify the affected channels.
• Is your Roku device currently connected to the internet? If so, we suggest Restarting your Router.
• What is your current Software Version? Check it under Settings > System > About.
• Can you provide us with a Video of the screen showing the issue you're experiencing?

In the meantime, you can try these suggested troubleshooting steps for the affected channels:

1. Remove the channel: navigate to your Home screen, move to the right, highlight the app, press Star*, then select Remove channel
2. Perform a system reboot: navigate to your Home, select Settings > System > Power (skip if unavailable) > System restart
3. Re-install the channel: navigate to your Home, scroll and select Store, look for the app, then press Add channel

For more detailed information on how to solve a playback issue, you can visit here: How to resolve a channel playback issue.

Please keep us posted about any developments regarding your concern.

All the best,
Emman
