Playback content out of order

I am attempting to watch Ninja (2009) on the Roku Channel on a Roku TV. The movie is constantly skipping backwards and forwards to different scenes at random. I have restarted both the TV and my router. These did not resolve this issue. Please assist.

@notadoctor 

Ninja (2009) is also available for free on Plex, Tubi, Pluto, Crackle, Fawesome, Redbox, Imdb, and Filmrise.

From the Roku Home Screen, use the Search feature and type in Ninja.

You may find that one of these alternate free Channels/apps will stream the movie better if you are experiencing an issue with it on the Roku Channel.

I watched a couple of mins on both Roku Channel and Pluto and did not see issue.  You can also try restarting your Roku (Settings/System/System Restart).  I have found that issues with the Roku Channel may require restarting your router as well.

Re: Playback content out of order

This doesn’t solve my problem. Am I going to hear from someone who works for Roku?

@notadoctor  AvsGunner is very knowledgeable. He gave you tons of options on how to watch Ninja for free. I am a huge Scott Atkins fan. You don’t need to watch it on the Roku channel. It’s free on Thriller movies, Plex, Vudu, Redbox, Crackle, Watch Free Flix, Tubi, Filmrise, Fawesome, IMDbTV, Filmrise Action, PlutoTV, Action Movies and Sci Fi Movies. You have 16 different channels to watch it on. Take your pic. if watching it on the Roku channel is not working for you then pick one of the other channels and watch it. It’s that easy.

I’d really prefer to get this Roku channel playback issue sorted, so please don’t respond unless you have information on how to do this.

There isn’t anything anyone can straighten out. I just watched 15 minutes of Ninja on Roku channel. No issues.

So you aren’t having playback issues? I’m so glad we could get that sorted out for you. Is there anything else I can help you with?
