Airplay screen mirroring stopped working immediately after automatic software version 14.1.4

I use airplay screen mirroring almost every day.  Yesterday when I tried it software version 14.1.4 build 7709 was automatically being installed.  I waited for it to finish and then tried screen mirroring from my ipad.  It looks like it is connecting and then bounces back to the airplay screen.  Audio works just fine.  I have tried all of the trouble shooting tips I have found and nothing seems to work.  Is there a way to fall back to a previous build?

Need to reboot to get Airplay working

I own two Roku Premiere’s. Both need to be rebooted before Airplay will work to mirror my devices (iPhone and iPad). The Roku’s are 5 years old. I am thinking I may need to upgrade to new Roku models. Has anyone else had this issue. 

thanks

Hello Emman:

Model:
3920 Roku Premiere
Software version:  14.1
We noticed this happening about 3 months ago. To get it to connect as I say I have to reboot Roku. I am living with this but very frustrating. Sorry I didn’t provide a video but hope you can help.
