@Roku you’ve got to fix the password input system in your TV’s. This is terrible. It takes 5-10 minutes and if I get the password wrong I just quit trying.

My new Roku got an update that supposedly improved connectivity. Funny, since it's been having connectivity problems ever since. I can see it's connected to my hosted network but it still thinks it needs to connect again.

@Square_Peg8 Yeah, but she already plays it, and - as noted - it's tied to her profile. I'm just going to treat it like an intercom. Between my work computer, my home computer, the Roku, and my phone, it's not like I'm exactly bereft of options in my study.

@RokuSupport Multiple apps on our Roku Ultra 2020 now zoom *way* in randomly following the latest firmware update (Sling and Netflix namely). Is this a known issue?

@Roku hello Roku I recently bought a $30 4K stick from you guys! Some thing I’ve noticed is that when I pull up YouTube it seems YouTube is actually bigger than my screen size so the outside is covered.everything else other than YouTube fits my screen. Is there a way to fix this

@mariana_diana44 @VikiStatus Right! I had problems with the app for Roku TV too and the website, only for some dramas (only the Viki Originals seem to work fine). I'm sure is not a problem with my pc or tv if others are having problems too. It must be their servers but they don't solve it @VikiStatus

@RearAdBsBlog @rmoreno1138 This is definitely the cause of the issue. On a lesser note, NESN on any of them is between Directv stream (ATT) or Fubo. Neither of which have worked as well as YouTube tv for me personally. Had to buy a Roku to get the app as neither allow you to cast your cloud to a chromecast

@sundarpichai Sir: I am very upset with your company. Why can't you just work out a deal with Roku. I and others pay $70 USD monthly for access and you won't negotiate keep us. Please work with Roku and keep us. We don't care about prioritizing your search options.

@theanimal23 @funstocks1 @dhaval_kotecha Losing either IS a negative, but I do not think it'll happen nor do I think it'll be devastating as there are other ways to view YouTube on Roku TVs (ex AirPlay) - worst case. And while the outcome is still unknown, Google has a lot to lose too.

@Davo_Mack @indytruckdavy On the 29th November, "AyeTV" will go live, first the ROKU TV platform, then about four weeks later, the same channel should start up on Amazon TV. At last I may finally achieve something for media in Scotland! (With a lot of help)

@LunaticWrench My old Roku just got replaced by another Roku Premiere. I don't know how old the hardware is but they definitely didn't upgrade me or anything. And yeah, that update didn't fix anything.

Was trying to watch movie trailers on Paramount+, but every single one had no video for some reason. Not sure if it's a bug in the app/service or a problem with my Roku.

@BlindedBite This issue has been fixed – if you haven't yet, try doing a system update to get this to work again. Go to Roku>Settings>System>System Update. Restart your device and see if it helps. Let us know how it goes.

@RokuSupport your latest software bricks Roku Ultra and the TV to which it is attached. And you don’t answer any support inquiries regarding the issue

@Roku How do I possibly cancel billing that I did not authorize without an account? there is no number to contact any live person and you can't have any support without an account. This is a shoddy business and someone needs to address this issue for me.
