I have four Roku devices. Today all four of them started having an issue when starting to play either Hulu live TV or recorded live shows, it will play for about 30 seconds then freezes then goes back to the beginning of the program. I tested it on my Samsung smart TV, and Hulu is working fine there. It is also working fine on the smartphone. It is only having the issue with Roku devices. And it started happening on all four Roku devices today. I am assuming that it has something to do with a recent update. My devices are Roku Express and Roku Ultra.
