-
C:\hris\Kasten (@Chris_Kasten) reported@DIRECTV Stream has potential. But the app is absolutely hot garbage on Roku devices. Usually stalls out loading a channel and I have to repeatedly reboot until it deigns to work. Seems fine on iPads and Fire sticks.
-
Lillian Seldeen (@singingdogranch) reported@AmazonHelp Issue with Prime Video playback. Getting HDMI cable error message on @Roku. Have replaced cable and rebooted but issue persists.

Jeff Miller (@volbeest) reported@comcast xfinity x1 Disney+ runs for 60 seconds then quits. Comcast tech support says to call Disney?!? Are you serious? Ditch Comcast cable, and get a Roku Stick. You will have a glitch once in 6 months, but unplug it and it’s back to perfect!
-
Rob powers (@RobPowers9) reportedCome on @Roku @hulu_support fix your issues. Why is Hulu going back to Roku home every 2 minutes?
-
Stewie (@Stewie0424) reportedFolks help me out please. What’s a good choice? Amazon Fire TV Stick or Roku Streaming Stick 4K/Roku Express? Need it to watch World Cup and I am unsure. I am going with Amazon Fire because I heard it’s relatively cheaper, but I want to hear out and weigh my options. TIA!
-
Sharon Selzer@🏡 (@SharonSelzer) reported@bml_khubbard @JoyceWhiteVance We had to get a plug in Roku in order to get the Xfinity app for our porch TV. Problem is, almost every morning I have to stand on a chair, unplug it, and plug it back in to restart the Roku.
-
Jeremy Dailey (@toast14) reportedHey @flosports - would it be possible for you to fix your @Roku app so it could stream everything correctly? My computer streams some of the hockey feeds better than the Roku does.

Haldalorian, NAFO Adjacent (@haldalorian) reported@hbomax I’m not able to stream the Nov 11 episode of @RealTimers. I get kicked out of the app every time and taken to Roku home screen. No error notification, just crash. Ep extras, other titles work fine.
-
C:\hris\Kasten (@Chris_Kasten) reported@DIRECTV Right now you have your website so broken with the constant redirect/reloads it isn't usable (or loadable) in any modern browser. What the heck? But if that's yet another page essentially saying to restart router, restart roku, and generally not addressing the issue, I'll pass
-
Alenoosh Baghramian (@alenoosh_ab) reported@Roku #roku you keep charging my credit card for subscriptions i did not sign up for. I even changed my credit card and removed payment method from my account you managed to find my new credit card number and start charging. Nothing seems to work to STOP the changes. Any suggestions??
-
ילד של בוקר (@Kurokamiism) reportedShape after the arrival of Dante, the Toriseishin and Roku, the Demiurge. But what she felt there was no need for such a display. Down the stairs and out the doors of the Dilphilyaian Castle, she noticed the sky held a murky sapphire color, the clouds resembled broken crystals
-
Adam Trevor (@Adam_Trevor70) reported@espn how often do I need to login to your app on Roku? This is getting ridiculous.
-
TheMusach (@TheMusach) reported@paramountnet your app for Roku is not working. Of course the paid paramount+ app is fine. Can't understand why you continue to make one of the best shows out there so freaking difficult to watch #YellowstoneTV
-
UNtitled (@wearethematrix) reportedDoes anyone use @Roku Ultra and have issues with captions? I keep turning them off. But they keep coming back.
-

James d (@jamesd3rd) reported@PrimeVideo the Roku app isn't resuming shows. I've restarted the device and it changed nothing. If I'm watching a show that has multiple seasons, I constantly have to scroll back to the season I was watching then to the episode. It's resuming where I left off. It used to work.
-
J (@J82039289) reported@DisneyPlus Disney still have not corrected technician issues with the show American Housewife. The 5 series will not run on a Roku device and stops abruptly when viewed on an iPad.
-
James 🌿🦒 (@DrJamesDoes) reportedMe: That new Daniel Radcliffe movie, Weird looks good. *spends 15 minutes trying to work out whether Roku is available on Firestick and how to watch the movie before giving up* Me: Never mind, maybe it'll be on regular TV sometime. There's plenty of stuff I can watch instead.
-
Patty Lou (@pattygress) reported@HBOMaxHelp @hbomax 11/15 Bill Maher Realtime still crashing to homepage on Roku when you try to watch entire show. The Realtime clips work just fine. No need to respond I have done all your suggestions and sent you all my information on Sunday.

Skotty B Good (@skottybgood) reported@Roku I have a new 4k stick that keeps restarting. Help
-
Jennifer L Vitucci (@jenletcone) reported@ThatUmbrella The device or the channel? I have noticed that the midrange devices work better and longer than the premium ones though, I haven’t had much experience with the streaming app though. A bit concerning as I want to watch Weird and that’s on Roku I think 🤔
