    @hulu_support @cole_fine Same issue here! Live channels are down. Trying to watch on Roku and all channels are stuck on a loop. Also tried on the iPhone app and get error code p-dev318.

    Never mind a 3 hour #SmackDown whatever is going on with @verizon or my @Roku TV. I can't get rid of this damn playback error. I even did a whole damn factory reset to my TV and still getting error code PLYB_122 for over a month. My TV is BARELY 5 years old.

    @YouTube Fix your Roku app. I don't want to scroll though my history looking for videos ONE AT A TIME. And there were already tabs for Watch Later, etc. More button presses isn't better. Want to fix something? Put Subs and Library higher on the menu than Gaming, Music, etc...

    @Roku @caseyrosewilson Latest update on Roku has brought on tons of issues. Can't remove finished listings from continue watching, completing episodes goes on to random programs, etc. And periodically it just resets itself. How about rolling back to stability?

    Not having any issues with Roku Channel, Pluto TV, Peacock, Tubi, freevee, etc. Just checked with a friend who has YouTube TV. No issues there. Might be time to switch.

    @hulu_support Hulu live is down AGAIN on all platforms - Roku, app, etc. I've tried all of your steps and nothing works . . . the problem is on your end not the customer!

    @DebbieBelin @EpochTV @SiyamakKhorrami Roku TV has streaming Epoch News channels. Please help them do well. & Watch NTD as well. Their news office was Firebombed, showing they are over the Enemy Target

    @Roku @raizalicea Roku is still broken. My continue watching has necroed shows I've completed over a year ago, and still has items i cannot remove. I get it, you guys have no real competition so there's no reason to worry about quality or reliability.... Just outsource it to programmers that know

    Oh my gosh, #AppleMusic is so trash. I'm on a free trail, and the **** barely works. I mean, I guess you need to use it on an Apple product 'cause I can't log into itunes on my PC, it won't log into my Roku. Anyone else have issues with Apple Music?

    @JackODonohue @NESN @NESNsucks Hi, this issue was fixed in the Roku version 3.9 update.  Please update your Roku device to the new version and restart.  Thank you

    @Roku WTF?! Remote control batteries go dead every 2 weeks. Can we fix this? I've never seen anything like this in my life. Multiply this times 4 ROKU tvs in the house. Getting ridiculous. Is Amazone Fire any better? anybody chime in. Thx,

  • JRCsystems
    JRC_Lanoka (@JRCsystems) reported

    Hey @Roku and @prageru @DennisPrager - Did you know that apparently Roku is #blocking Prageru app? The app starts, but #anything you try watching crashes immediately and leaves you back at the main screen. Tried updating. Tried uninstall/ reinstall. Doesn't work!

    @Ask_Spectrum I noticed a bill for $115 MORE on my Spectrum. Turns out, without getting my permission, anyone can add TV services from their TV. Spectrum blamed @Roku - NOT Roku's fault! This is 100% Spectrum ALLOWING my credit card to be billed. Yo Spectrum, FIX IT!

    @hulu_support Well, my hulu live is 3 hrs behind on both ROKU and the HULU app on my LG TV. But the app on my phone is good. What's the problem?

  • Zaack23
    What good are notebooks? (@Zaack23) reported

    @LMDhusky2023 @discoveryplus @FIAWEC Discovery+ isn't stable on the Roku either. It simply does not adjust bandwidth ever; I proved it on the PC with some technicals and Discovery's answer was "use tethering on your PC to force it into mobile mode." Which a) won't work and b) what ********?

    @Ask_Spectrum @Roku funny the last rep I posed this to hadn't heard about this problem. My brother was going nuts & pressed every button & found out you guys moved it. It's now the 10 second rewind button. So never mind. But you can add this bit of knowledge to your repertoire.

    @PlutoTV I'm having a lot of issues with your app on my @Roku . The app freezes during commercials and I have exit to Home. My ROKU is running software version 15.1.4 Build 3321. Yes I've restarted the unit and no it doesn't help. Your app is version 5.45 Build 3 I've cleared the ROKU cache, removed & reinstalled your app.

    This entire @F1 and @Apple agreement has been fine broadcast wise but it's this entire bullshit around it being forced into another subscription, lagging latency when using a smart TV, and crap. Just give me my F1 app on @Roku with a single sign in and one reasonable subscription

    @RokuSupport @Roku HELP!!! - My subscription support ticket (#13949322) was escalated but I haven’t received any updates. Can someone please check the status and advise on next steps?

    This is a total first world problem, but I lose my mind that it takes 12 minutes and 85 clicks to finally get to the show I’m trying to watch and one accidental step of my dog to wind up on Roku Greatest Hits.

    @Fightincowboy @Crunchyroll My back button isn’t working anywhere on any Roku remote. Multiple TVs with the same issue. @Roku
