@TCL_USA @RokuSupport TCL again fails to offer support. Don’t buy TCL with Roku. Roku, not TCL, asked a couple questions about my problem and gave up. TCL sent an email saying, oh, we see someone is helping you with your issue (no they did not) so we won’t do anything, good luck.

@SinabuKaru Really? Huh. I've had a G TV for a few months now and we love it. But never used Roku before either. Not had crash issues though.

@RokuSupport hey Roku, any idea why captions don’t always work on @hbomax for the show Succession? It started when the “stay tuned for more at the end of this episode” and the previous episode recap started. Captions work for other shows

Is it normal when streaming using a roku with the the spectrum app to lose your hi def and buffer 30to 40 times an hour?

@TBSNetwork you’re app is horrrrrrrible. 2nd week in a row I can’t watch AEW because the app will not load on my roku device. All I get is error messages.

@kcarr2015 I’m watching on Roku Channel. Why? It said this terrible old print was in HD. 😜 I don’t think things through sometimes. First ads already! Short though. #FrightClub

@verizonfios Why are you now requiring a username and password every time a channel sign in expires? It used to auto authenticate through my wi-fi. My @Roku TV is useless now.

Worst thing I did during the pandemic was get involved in screenwriting rooms on Clubhouse. Bunch of haters/hacks pontificating and copping major attitude cause they were in the writing room on a show that ran 8 episodes on Roku in 2019…

@Danielleri Oh, sounds totally unrelated to my issues then! As someone else suggested though a Roku might be a solution. I've used console apps for years but the 4K thing made me get a dedicated Roku and overall it's an improvement.

@RokuSupport No error message. It's only the Discovery+ app that does it. We can go into the app, start a show, then it just jumps clear out of the app back to the Roku menu. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app. I've restarted the Roku. I checked for updates and the Roku is up to date.

@Roy_Miller_III @Fan_Prspective If you have Roku, just search for Redbox in the App Store, download it to your device, and add it to your home list of channels. Create a login via Redbox and use your login credentials to stream via Roku. Voilà, you’re in business. 😎

@artworld03 It says it will be gone on June 23. I highly doubt HBO Max would pick it up. They have a higher quality standard for their shows. Maybe Prime, Hulu, Roku

@Tynegall @remsteale @anon_opin must be different to mine then, both the ones i've had work no matter where the remote is, even worked when i tried using it under several blankets and pointed in the opposite direction of the tv. In fact i think my first Roku used it as a selling point

@RokuSupport When I try to play something on the Roku Channel, it immediately pops back to the home page. It worked fine yesterday, but today it would work. What's going on?

@SeanRossSapp I haven't had issues with the BR Roku app but it will be nice if we eventually get an AEW Network type thing to use

Bought my parents a brand new Roku. Installed it Monday. Discovery+ app absolutely will not work. They try to start a show, it plus for maybe 5 seconds, cuts back to the main Roku menu. It's the only app doing it. And, of course, the only app they truly care about. Figures.
