    @rumblevideo @Project_Veritas The phone app works fine. Wish you guys would work on your Roku app. many videos I cant find, even when specifically searching for them.

  • ikarams Smaraki Pradhan (@ikarams) reported

    @altbalaji - Your app is not working on Roku in USA. How can I access AltBalaji here? It’s very frustrating.

  • kbenwrites Karyn Ben Singer 📼🖖🌈 (@kbenwrites) reported

    Eh, what a pain. But no problem, I have regular Shudder, too. But the Xfinity device we have in the living room doesn't have the Shudder app available. Still no problem, because I have both a Roku and an Apple TV that do.

  • sfobrian ..:: Brian ::.. (@sfobrian) reported

    @XfinitySupport So, this has to be a known issue with your xFinity Stream app. I can't steam on Roku or my iPhone. Did you even look to see if you are having an issue? Because I doubt it.

  • natsumini なつみ (@natsumini) reported

    @RokuSupport I got a ROKU Outdoor Camera and is setting now but the app I installed in my phone doesn’t recognize the base station which wired connected to the router. I tried many times but it didn’t work. How should I do?

  • kbenwrites Karyn Ben Singer 📼🖖🌈 (@kbenwrites) reported

    The Apple's in the bedroom on a small TV, so I opt for the Roku (which has been dormant since the move) and set it up in my Cinema room because at this point, I've decided it would be cooler to watch this on my projector, anyway. Easy breezy, plug it in, login to Shudder...

    @NitroDawg16 @Roku My Roku worked well for abt a year. Then it started conking out every few minutes. Now its completely dead! Yo Roku -- help! @TheRokuChannel #23DaysofRoku

  • Irbaz1 Irbaz Patel (@Irbaz1) reported

    @ATT @DIRECTV I’m absolutely livid installing Direct TV equipment. The Direct TV Stream boxes are fine, but when enabling Direct TV on a Sony Bravia or a Roku stick, or any Direct TV app compatible device. There is NO practical way to change channels. Sony remote don’t work.

  • kbenwrites Karyn Ben Singer 📼🖖🌈 (@kbenwrites) reported

    But hey, I already have the Roku set up so I figure I'll poke around for other stuff to watch. Except then there's some weird error with Roku where it wouldn't let me activate any of the app channels. Turns out it needed an update.

  • GlowySweetFab Chloe (@GlowySweetFab) reported

    @MikeyGang @Simbas_twin_ @layxsnv Me personally would never have figured this out because you need a USB connection in your TV for Roku devices to work. So it's not just 3 cords and no way in hell does this old *** TV have a USB port. I'm honestly impressed.

  • WorldOLuxe Libby Andrews (@WorldOLuxe) reported

    @rumblevideo is #rumble down? Getting a 505 error when clicking on videos and no videos show at all on Roku

  • BirneyChristine Christine (@BirneyChristine) reported

    @roku tell your customers before they buy your TVs that you don’t work with Netflix because you’re back and developers haven’t caught up

    @DEADLINE Bad news for Juile Plec. Peacock have rejected your TV show that your working on Dead Day despite being greenlifted. I hope HBO, HBO Max, Hulu, AMC, AMC+, Netflix, Apple TV+, Tubi, or Roku will pick it up after it was scrapped by Peacock. Terrible decision from Peacock and exces

  • HughDonohoe O Bibliothikiarios (@HughDonohoe) reported

    Yes it's January, the worst month for retail sales. But $Roku's moat seems to be alive in the U.S. Seeing dominance in the U.S. in TVs (again)... AND... strong dongle sales (again). Roku seems to be keeping ~ 40% market share right now in the U.S. Still number one.

  • RichKuser Pissed Off Patriot (@RichKuser) reported

    @Roku You all clearly, CLEARLY are liars when you say you value your customers and want them to have a great TV experience. You provide ZERO support options to assist anyone with billing/payment issues. You take ones money and run laughing to the bank and provide no support. None

  • gabe_prewitt Gabe Prewitt (@gabe_prewitt) reported

    @BradA53472906 @Edison_1999_ @RacewayFreehold Believe me, I’m the worst. Haha. That’s why I thought I would share. But if you get a Roku (can buy them anywhere).. hook it up to your tv (easy).. get RTN app downloaded and for $10 month you can get every harness track live/replays at tip of fingers.

  • EcnoTheNeato Tim Hale (@EcnoTheNeato) reported

    @vehiclesshockme Roku tv guy here. No problems!

  • TaeoThe TheMageTaeo (@TaeoThe) reported

    @TheRokuChannel HEY! Roku, you need to fix your channel. Incorrect movies are coming up under different titles. Example: "The Librarian: Return to King Solomon's Mines" plays "Flyboys" instead.

  • Just_J0hnathan Just.Johnathan (@Just_J0hnathan) reported

    Does anyone else have issues streaming @rumblevideo to their @Google ChromeCast? At this point I have to watch Rumble videos through @Roku streaming.

  • StLNetworkGuru2 Mex-Cellent The MAGA Latina (@StLNetworkGuru2) reported

    Hey @PrimeVideo @amazon your stupid app keeps crashing Fix the @Roku #PrimeVideo app and quit wasting money on big time movie stars for stupid movies, like shotgun wedding
