  • HeyIanEvans 𝙸𝚊𝚗 𝙴𝚟𝚊𝚗𝚜 😷💉💉💉 (@HeyIanEvans) reported

    @normwilner To clarify, if the distributor has an app, some will accept Indee links? I can't cast with Indee without serious audio sync issues and they still haven't developed anything native for Roku or Chromecast.

  • Bribreen63 BBreen (@Bribreen63) reported

    @MSGGOHelp Airplay to Roku has been awful lately. Constant freezing and or just cutting out completely. It’s really quite terrible. Can’t understand why there isn’t an app for Roku.

  • sheilaemabry Sheila Mabry (@sheilaemabry) reported

    @EdmondsChad @XfinitySupport Now you should cancel Comcast and start streaming with Roku! Sorry about the tree issues but glad y’all are safe. 🧡

  • mcbass34 Marc Bass (@mcbass34) reported

    @james_on18 @BallySportsKC @Royals I have yet to get the app to work this season. The app is total trash. I’ve tried on my I-Pad, I- Phone, and Roku device at work. So apparently the only way I can watch the Royals is if I’m at home and can watch on my tv.

  • JanineATurner1 JanineATurner (@JanineATurner1) reported

    @rotiandroses @Roku I’ve never had an issue. I’ve been watching my Roku all day, not one issue.

  • DrAngelaChester DrAngelaButtsChester (@DrAngelaChester) reported

    @VimeoStaff I am having trouble with my Roku TV feed - can someone please connect with me. I've sent 2 emails with NO response. Thanks!

  • powkang powkang (@powkang) reported

    What shade of gray is the area of illegally pirating episodes of #pachinko even though I pay for @AppleTVPlus, because the @AppleTV app on @Roku is WORTHLESS with subtitles? It's embarrassingly terrible. #친구를구하다 #AskingForAFriend

  • SuperRobotOTC Super Robot 🤖 (@SuperRobotOTC) reported

    @DaMoshu expensive cables are scams, you already know this. never jump on tech bandwagon lol. recently got a hisense 2k resolution with roku built in for $180 from walmart. picture quality is excellent. people bought same tv for $1000+ couple years ago lmao. suckers jump on bandwagon

  • ooNeebs Neebs (@ooNeebs) reported

    someone help me with these internet issues my pc connects to the internet but can barely load any browsers. upload/download speeds are hella low but it works fine on all other devices (phone, tablet, roku, etc. ) dm me if u can help

  • DrAngelaChester DrAngelaButtsChester (@DrAngelaChester) reported

    @Vimeo I am having with my feed to Roku. Roku says its your feed that is the issue. Please help!

  • RoundsR Rounds (@RoundsR) reported

    @slinganswers Well, Roku has no trial period. So I'll have to buy a month of Sling just to try it out. New question - a huge problem I have with Xfinity is that they sell a package for $140 but the final bill ends up being much higher due to many fees. Does Sling add anything to the $35?

  • NateLovie4 nate 🫧 (@NateLovie4) reported

    I have literally 3 fire sticks (ones for sale y’all, a chrome cast, and a roku, and I’m feeling so compelled to buy an Apple TV as well help I don’t even have that many screens.

  • beach_boys_fan isaac (@beach_boys_fan) reported

    I'm very impressed that MASN even has an app that works on my Roku TV. I mean, it's terrible and a solid two minutes behind, but I can't believe it exists at all

  • thagomize snakes on an astral plane (@thagomize) reported

    cant believe im gonna go out and get a roku just to fix my streaming on my **** *** tv so me and my friend can watch pirates kiss

  • RobinP02911722 Robin P, Clown World Fact Checker 🤡🌎 (@RobinP02911722) reported

    @Lepracon56 @realBradStaggs @RealRonPhillips On the iPad I get the full show, but on the Mojo 5.0 app on Roku I only get audio and still don’t get your breakdown. I like being on twitter during the show. There’s got to be a fix.

  • daryl_millar Daryl Millar (@daryl_millar) reported

    Watched the first episode of Swimming With Sharks on the Roku Channel. I like that Roku are making full-length originals. But, production quality-wise, it falls a little short. Sometimes you can just tell, you know?

  • ACummings40 Andrew Cummings (@ACummings40) reported

    @NESN I am sitting in my living room in Dunbarton, NH getting an error message on the NESN Roku app saying I need to sign in from New England to stream live content. I a literally in the town located in the CENTER of New England. Please advise.

  • waurii Waurii (@waurii) reported

    @vikingkim5 Possibly? Is audio still working? If you have another device connected to tv (dvd player, video game console, roku, etc), switch to that input. If the picture comes back, it may be the device or the port it is connected to that is the problem.

  • niccib28 Nicolle Bradford (@niccib28) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp HBOMax app keeps crashing on my @Roku. Is there an outage!

  • Lissolas ClueLiss♠️ (@Lissolas) reported

    @YouTube why is your app not working on Roku right now?

  • Osterloocious Jessica (@Osterloocious) reported

    Dog woke me up at 4:30, I kept waking up cause something was messed up with the internet; I'd fall asleep after starting something and it would stop so I'd wake up. Unplugged boxes fixed that problem, roku remote wouldn't connect reset the stick and reconnected remote. Big mad.

  • GeraldMarkJames Mark James 🥋 (@GeraldMarkJames) reported

    @WVPitt Sling seems to be the cheapest and I used to get it during football season. Loved that I could start and stop it without any contract. There is some flexibility with 2 main packages plus smaller add-on packages. I didn’t have any issues with the app using roku or mobile devices.

  • Bleekerboy Matt J (@Bleekerboy) reported

    @BallySportsMW any idea why I can watch the Blues game on the app through my iPhone but it keeps crashing when I try the Roku tv app and when I use the Amazon Firestick it says unable to watch due to an error?

  • leaminajjj Lea Minaj (@leaminajjj) reported

    @hulu_support that was no help at all..I have a roku tv & every other app I have (hbo max, netflix, paramount+, discovery+, disney+, amazon prime, tubi, youtube, pluto, pandora, etc) and they all have normal volume except Hulu. I went thru all settings but nothing worked.

  • SECbaseball SEC Baseball (@SECbaseball) reported

    @KendallRogers Sadly @Roku TV does not support the quad box and not to be dramatic but it’s the worst technical oversight of all time.

  • rcoyote99 i am hopeful fir next year (@rcoyote99) reported

    What is the best internet company for one stop shopping: internet, basic tv with Kings games. Everything else i use roku.. my service terrible
