    @peacock seriously needs to fix their subtitle problem on @roku. The subtitles just drop off and stop. I tweeted about this years ago. Luckily I am not hard of hearing but for people are, they cant watch the movie/show!

    Fix: On my TCL Roku TV whenever I would turn a movie on Disney+ it would turn to a dark almost black screen. after I turned the Backlight down from 100, it worked.

    For years I had my elderly mother perfectly able to operate her @Roku TV. Now the software is so convoluted and dumb I can't even figure out how to fix it for her anymore. It just wants to stream everything with no antenna channels. It was fine and they broke it with software.

    I'll NEVER buy another @Roku TV. Mom's is 8 years old and it was fine. Turn it on, it had all her channel numbers on antenna. Recently it's "updated" with no channel numbers, no way to just have antenna channels, and she wants to replace it because it's "broken". Garbage product.

    @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.

    Anyone else have issues with @Roku remotes? 3rd time replacing it and now the one I bought in January is broken and they won't replace it either!

    @Roku @jjscomedy Roku, we shouldn't have to connect to the internet to watch OTA channels. Please fix this. If there is an internet outage, which does happen, then Roku users are screwed from even our local OTA channels.

    @Roku Are you guys having some kind of outage? One of my devices failed to update... I factory reset it and now cannot add Apps. Your web site says there is a known issue. How about an update?

    @Roku - your latest updates have really borked antenna live TV recording. Almost unusable. Rewind works until it doesn’t, sometimes just wipes out the buffer, doesn’t show the cursor/scrub time on the timeline, no more thumbnails while scrubbing? Ouch.

    @Roku hey guys if you could fix your ******* app every time when I'm listening to music on my phone through the app it disconnects so how about you guys get off your *** and fix the ******* app thank you.

    @Roku Your captcha is garbage, your website is garbage, and I've tried a dozen times to recover my password but keep getting looped back to your goddamn captcha. Please fix your garbage!

    @Roku I had the worst experience with Aileen in support chat. She was very rude and unhelpful. I love Roku but this is making me very unhappy. I have an overheating device and she said she had to confirm it was overheating before she could help. I mean im telling her. 😞

    @roku What is wrong with your VIAPLAY app? It works fine on my Fire TV. FIX it, or cancel and refund my money. DM for details.

    @MLBTV FIX YOUR ******* ROKU APP. JESUS

  • a9ymous
    no, i don't think i will, thanks (@a9ymous) reported

    @Roku stop continually making the Live TV interface worse, it's one of the reasons we got this RokuTV (pause/rw terrestrial TV). and fix your subtitle support, constantly having to go back to the main menu and unselect/reselect Always On.

    @Roku I was going to join today but your app doesn’t say much. Yiu cannot chat because of bats in Apple phones. Does it work on Verizon ? I have no idea what a subscription is or how much it is. Get a new a manager. I’ll find something else I guess.

    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 ********?
