Solving playback issues

[REW]

While watching several episodes of a several programs the video and audio suddenly jump back several minutes and play a scene that I have already watched. Currently watching an episode of HUNTER and it has done it 3 times in the first 15 minutes of the show. What gives?? Shurely the folks at Roku didn't screw up that bad when loading these videos in there system.

You didn't say what app you are using. Roku has thousands, so narrowing it down a little will help.

If you're talking about The Roku Channel, keep in mind that many will be curated content from other sources, particularly Filmrise. Those will have a Filmrise logo at the beginning. If there's an issue with those, it's actually from the content source. Regardless, that's not a good experience.

Let us know the app so we can offer the best suggestions.

I am using a Roku Express model 3930X.  Software version 10.0.0 build 4209-AE.  Software shows to be up to date. Most times I am on Roku Channel and some of the shows do show the Filmrise tag.

Have you tried removing the channel then re-install it? If not, we suggest giving it a shot. To ensure the process is successful, make sure to restart your device before adding the channel back in. We would recommend doing this from the Settings menu by navigating to Settings > System > System restart > Restart.

For detailed instructions, refer to this Support link: How do I resolve channel playback issues?

Keep us posted on how it goes.

All the best,

Removing channel and reinstalling it did not help. I removed channel, did a total power down for over an hour and reinstalled the channel.  Must be something screwy with the shows I was watching. I have started watching some other programs on Roku Channel and they are working OK.

 Thanks for the help!!

I am having the same problem.  It has happened more than once while viewing a movie on the Roku App on a Roku TV.  The last time it was the worst.  While watching "The Maiden Heist" it jumped back scenes several times and jumped ahead several times.  One time the credits even came up before the end of the movie and then it jumped to the last two scenes of the movie.  The plot of the movie became very confusing and hard to follow.
