@dannyfrankel How about an article on why Paramount+ has so many technical issues? Roku users have been unable to stream programming in 4K HDR since December, Samsung users have had continuing random "Program not available in your territory" errors.

Has anyone made the switch from a fire stick to Roku? Was it better/worse? Reliability issues or anything? My fire stick is basically a dud and I can't take 20 minutes of rebooting every day just to watch 1 hour of TV.

Our Roku TV quite literally just turned 3 years old and died last night. Called @BestBuy customer service and was just now told “I really wanted to help you but it’s out of warranty so I can’t. Have you tried calling Xfinity?” … so Xfinity is why my tv won’t turn on? 🤔

@Clarknt67 @hbomax Is it a Roku TV or a Roku device? I had to delete all the crap channels I never use because evidently they suck up enough bandwidth just sitting there that it screws up HBO. I was having the same issue as you but it hasn't recurred since I culled the useless channels.

Doing my remote job, today is admin task day. I have low volume Roku music streaming, these videos are amusing & delighting me to no end. Remote work. If I didn't have it, I would simply not have any scratch. Which is fine, too. But that would pain my immigrant raised ego.

@DIRECTVhelp Are there plans to improve the DIRECTV STREAM app on Roku? Content is inconsistent and repeatedly stops to buffer. Never had this issue with my Hulu Live TV plan.

@TCL_USA bought a new roku tv. Less poplar apps don't work. Contacted TCL. Their "fix" is to do a factory reset of TV every. time. I want to use said apps. Well, that's one way to fail on user experience & get me moving on to other companies.

I can’t get my headphones to work with the Roku app so naturally I tried to scratch my eyes out

Took me this many days to remember I can watch it on the ESPN app on Roku because we have Cox internet. I blame all the brain stir frys that have been my work days for over a week.

But I can’t fix everything 🤷♂️

@hulu_support Using a Roku streaming stick. Plugged into wall outlet for power, was previously using TV USB. Only error message is from TV, input lost. As stated. Happens on Hulu live. Was on TBS West.

Welp, I had trouble with the CR Roku app at home last night but something is definitely up with the work wifi this morning, rip me.

The worst thing about a Roku TV is that there's no "jump" button to get back to the previous TV channel (over the air antenna TV)

I keep getting an HDCP error on my new @Roku and follow all the steps to get it fixed but nothing is working. It's really starting to pass me off.

How can @MiLB TV still not be available on Roku, Fire, Samsung, etc? It should (and easily could) work exactly like the MLB app. Why is this so difficult?

Pros to Roku TV as a 4k monitor: more resolution than I need even at 200% scaling Cons to Roku TV as a 4k monitor: Spotify web player makes it freak ******** out in such a way that the only way to fix it is unplug and replug the HDMI cord and reset my windows how I wanted them

@DuarteFranch I have my nice TV set to lowest quality. Same with Roku. Might as well use an old big-*** TV and sell the rest.

@fuboTVsupport It's possible that your app for Apple TV 4K is misbehaving. I've swapped my Apple TV with my Roku, same HDMI connection to the display, and so far so good. And yep, I've rebooted the Apple TV, it and the fuboTV app are up to date, no help. Gonna enjoy the show now.?.

@MJ6String @askparamount Being resourceful and having options, I found a workaround -- using our ROKU stick to access your app on this TV. Our other two Samsung "smart TVs" don't have the same problem. I'm guessing it has more to do with the model of TV vs. a failing on the part of Paramount+

@JAT_1950 I think Aang could do it. Redeem her that is. But it'd have to be Aang alone. Not as the Avatar and the Princess but as two master benders. Especially because Aang could Avatars like Kyoshi and Roku help, particularly Roku.

@TeamYouTube support needed For some reason on my Roku TV the YOUTUBE app is no longer allowing us to increase or slow down video play speed. Some sort of glitch I wasn't sure if you're aware of. Desktop works fine but Roku TV app won't allow for example 1.5 playback speed
