Solving playback issues

[Hdpalms]

I bought a Roku express about a month ago. Setup was simple and it worked fine. Yesterday went to use it and it won’t work. If I unplug it or reset etc the power light comes on, blinks for a minute then turns off. Nothing appears on the tv screen at all. I have spent hours reading online and tried replacing both cords, different power adapter, tried it on a different tv and everything else I could find to try. The result is the same every time. 
I have now spent an extended time trying to figure out how to start a warranty claim and can not find anything useful. Can anyone tell me where to start?

This page should tell you.

@Strega That must be the same article I found online but when I click on the link it just takes me to Roku support and I can’t see any article.

[Strega]

Hmm.  It looks like that page works from the US, but not from a few other countries that I tried.  Where are you, and does the country selector in the lower right corner of most roku.com pages agree with you?

@Strega I am in Canada and the location at the bottom says Canada.

@RokuTakashi  - I just wanted to mention that your step-by-step link does not work, if the person clicking it is in Canada, or several other countries I tried.  You should probably ask your website people to do something about that.

@Strega thank you for your responses.

i have found roku warranty service a scam.   no way i can initiate a simple replacement on their website spent more time looking for how to replace a broken remote than just buying a new one.

While I do like my Roku - will never buy one and will tell friends not to buy either
