Can't set hdmi to deep color with Express 4K+ on LG OLED C3 TV
Today I found I have a similar issue. On my LG OLED C21 I had this option turned on. No problems until today, when I tried to watch an NBA game on Max. For some reason their games come in Dolby Vision, even I have their basic plan, which supports only HD. Anyway, today I didn't get picture, but only sound. My TV was saying the picture was DV but it was showing a black screen. Not even the cursor for advancing or going back in time. Similar issue encountered on Apple TV+, which has all their original content în DV, but not as consistent as Max. Disney+ didn't seem to have any issues. Same Prime, but that's not DV, just HDR. So, what's going on? It seems to me this maybe just a miscomunication between Roku and my TV. Same game was just fine playing off a Fire TV stick. The Roku firmware is 14.5 on my Roku stick 4k. The TV firmware is 03.51.16 (early March this year).
Screensaver Crashes the Roku Ultra 2024
Same exact thing with the new 2024 4850X. I have the 4800X that I was upgrading from and that unit is just fine, no issues. The new model has the same exact issues. Screen saver crashes the system entirely, sometimes the whole thing becomes unresponsive randomly in an app and reboots and other times just hitting home from anywhere will cause it to freeze crash and reboot too. There’s a new processor in these models and my bet is there’s some memory handling issue or something they need to patch. Very annoying and not a good experience at all. This new one is terrible, I’d never look back at Roku if I was a new customer and I thought this was normal.
Help Roku Ultra 2024 Dolby Atmos
Currently bought new #2024RokuUltra and having issues with Roku identifying any type of Dolby Atmos, Dolby vision, HDR content. I have LG 65CX TV playing Roku through back of TV 4K 120 Hz port and my LG SN9YG soundbar plugged into earc port with HDMI cable. Prior to upgrading, I had the 2022 Roku Ultra and had no issues, the Roku player identified all HDR formats, Dolby vision formats, and Dolby Atmos content. Roku support keeps blaming apps but I bypassed the Roku to play LG TV only through those same apps and content works just fine. I have tried factory reset, changed HDMI cables, enabled deep color format, even turned off volume level. Still nothing. Back to force always on double vision or HDR but can never get Dolby Atmos no matter what settings I try. I've tried these on two different 2024 Roku Ultra models. Roku support also said they would follow up but never did.
Netflix on Roku Streambar constantly crashing
I keep having problems with streaming Netflix on Roku. It's really getting frustrating. First it would freeze or be super laggy. So I restarted the Roku...no difference. Uninstalled Netflix and tried to reinstall but now it won't reinstall. WTF. I've been a loyal Roku user for over a decade but I'm losing patience. I'm ready to move on.
Youtube constant buffering
I had a couple of posts on Youtube constant buffering but I guess they're closed as I can't add this comment to them. I have 2 TCL Roku TVs and a Streaming 4K stick. None of them can play Youtube as it constant buffers. Visited my daughter and she has a Roku Express and it plays Youtube flawlessly. I edited this message. I bought the Roku Express 4K+ and YT doesn't work with that either. However YT does work on my LG TV (so not my network/WiFi etc.). Big mystery to me.
