    @rumblevideo I have a brand new @Roku tv and canโ€™t watch your podcasts on any speed but 1 fix that ****!

  • Cakefacethedad
    David Cornell (@Cakefacethedad) reported from Rome, Latium

    Dear @Spotify and @Roku , It has come to my attention that @Google is regulalrly attacking my Roku streaming device. The first time I installed a Chromecast in the house, my Google Play functionality immediately disappeared from my Roku player. I was forced to use the YouTube app, but could only see movies I had purchased, no TV shows. Recently, I tried connecting the Chromecast to our new wifi. It said I needed to donload the Google Home app to change the wifi, so I did. From that point on, anytime I watch a podcast on Spotify, the video will not work. None of this is a problem on my phone, sitting in the same room, usung rhe same accounts on the same wifi. The common denominators here are me installing or updating something on my Google Chromecast and instantly having a major, negative change to my Roku streaming box. How is this legal? Why is Google allowed to attack my Roku player and disable functionality from other apps?

    @TCL_Global @PlayStation Turns out it was @Roku's new screen Trial. If this issue happens to you, go into TV Settings > Home Screen and disable the Screen Trial that is listed in there. Fix my issue right away.

    @fuboTV @Roku @AskAmex Amex, fuboTV and Roku will not cancel my subscription. They each say via bot chat that the other has to do it. But no one will. Can you just block payment? Or where/how can I get help to cancel my subscription?

    @CordCuttersNews Great! I will make sure after I throw this POS TV down the stairs that I never buy another @Roku TV again. Every update makes my TV more useless and unusable. Can't wait! ๐Ÿ˜’๐Ÿ˜‘

    @Roku Thanks for the response. Yup. Tried that. Doesn't work. And the buffering is constant. It only happens on the Blaze App. It makes it completely unwatchable.

    @Roku @TheRokuChannel Keep getting connection issue error and telling me to check my connection, then it dumps me back to main Roku menu. Connection is fine. I have no problems with other apps, just with Roku Channel. I have checked for updates and rebooted. Still getting error.
