    @AustinBMedia_ I can't get the screen mirroring to work from my phone to Roku. I had to drop links from one studio when my phone and Apple TV could not find each other in order to login.

    @Roku Customer and technical service are proving poor performers with a streaming issue I have had with them for over a month now. Any other streaming platforms y'all love?

  • GarciaDesert Rodrigo Garcia (@GarciaDesert) reported

    @paramountplus tried watching Star Trek into Darkness on your @roku app. Colors are washed out😭. Same for all Indiana Jones movies. Tried on two separate tv’s with same result. TV’s only 1080p, reset Roku, tv. I played same content on different app without issues.

    @TeamYouTube I have YouTube tv app on iPad. Roku. Fire tv. Lg tv. All up to date.The problem @KeyJayandMax is 4 hours long and it changes channels between hours 1-2 and hours 3-4. YouTube tv used to combine them into a 4 hour episode but now it doesn’t. It just keeps recording hours 1-2.

    Sitting, bumping, touching it, anything to do with a Roku remote is the worst!

  • EireEyes Sandy Smith (@EireEyes) reported

    @discoveryplus your app is the only one of mine that goes to black screen every few minutes. I’ve tried uninstalling, rebooting my #ROKU & reinstalling. Doesn’t work. This is my favorite channel and the one that gives me the problems. What can I do?

  • BlantonDavid David Blanton (@BlantonDavid) reported

    Happens with all streaming devices. Not an isolated issue with one device. Tested with Roku TV, Roku streaming player, Amazon Fire Stick and Google Chromecast. Doesn't happen when watching YoutubeTV app or casting app to TV. Please help!

  • Rusty_Gladd Rusty Gladd (@Rusty_Gladd) reported

    Apple TV: doesn't work on a Mac, doesn't work on a Roku, only works on a Windows PC.

  • zedzd3d Zed's Dead (@zedzd3d) reported

    @PrimeVideo How is your PS5 app so incredibly broken? It loses network connection in the browser constantly. Netflix and AppleTV work perfectly. And on my Roku it works perfectly too so it’s not my network or apps, only your one app and only on PS5. 🙄🙄🙄

  • ARBurtonWorld ARBurtonSaysTimeToRejoin (@ARBurtonWorld) reported

    Techy tweeters, has anyone succeeded in curing the "HDCP" error screen using a Roku Stick? Help gratefully received before I hurl the wretched thing to the bottom of someone else's garden....

  • hydeandgeek Hyde (@hydeandgeek) reported

    @roku What good is offering a free HDMI extender to your Roku Stick owners if the page doesn’t work? I enter my info and hit continue and… nothing.

    @RokuSupport none of my roku boxes are working. They won’t connect to the WiFi for some reason. I’ve restarted everything multiple times but they’re still not working. Oddly enough though my roku tv is working fine. Any ideas?
