@LeMelleKH2 I got it to work by casting it from a tablet to my roku. I *believe* the roku fite app is region locked. Found a simple workaround. Thanks!

@TeamYouTube @TraderAlways It didn’t work. It’s absent on every smart TV and Roku? Is there any plan for fixing this?

@derekstark @AEW It's not coming up on there. The latest thing (and I restarted the Roku) is Sacrifice from last night. I expected to just go to Fite and order the show, no problems.... and now, oh well. Guess I'll follow on Twitter and see highlights as they pop up, while watching true crime.

@IanWAdams @ColinWilliamson @kshipwhitecat It might specifically be bad on roku but at the same time it's like... Millions of people own that so it should probably work there

@zethuscap @ericnuttall To add insult to injury, not only did they dump Suncor and CNRL just ahead of a major cycle, but they swapped Canadian energy to add gems such as Zoom, Neo and Roku shortly before the big tech crash. Must be embarassing for La Caisse.

Come on @Roku fix your ******* os. Ever since the past 2 updates my 2 roku TV's freeze and buffers about every 3 minutes granted its only for a few seconds but it's extremely annoying! I am running a sniffer on my network and it's fine plus I have android TV that doesn't buffer.

@tabali_tigi I got one of these for my mom from some lady on FB. It’s laggy asf and constantly needs updating. My mom is technologically illiterate, so I was always having to “fix” it for her. She got a Roku now since she only uses Netflix and Hulu.

@TeamYouTube It is YouTube streaming on my Roku device & Google TV device with voice remote that’s the issue. All other apps on these devices are working fine. Also, so far, I have YT app on Apple TV device & the app on my iPhone…no issue.

Broh, @YouTube's rental system is absolutely ******. Every time I rent something it's like pulling teeth trying to get it to play on my goddamn Roku, plays fine on my phone but even casting it from my phone pulls up the same stupid error message

The one issue I have with the Crunchyroll app on Roku is it’s slow as molasses. With them importing Funimation content in a month, it’s gonna end up crashing the app. They need to fix it ASAP and overhaul the UI.

@HBOMaxHelp No error messages. Just doesn’t load as well as other apps on the roku. Just see three dots if I can even get to a specific episodes Or series. Can immediately switch to Hulu Netflix Disney etc with no problem so it’s not hardware or internet.

@Scyvvir @DirtCoyote the worst is YpuTube Autoplay. I fall asleep with that **** on my Roku, I have bad tinnitus and it's the only thing that stops the pain. one night I fell asleep watching silly nightly tech news commentary show. morning, TRACTOR VIDEOS. AND ADS FOR TRACTORS. Now every night.

@thrivingfornow @Roku I don't even bother with that. My remote has Netflix and Hulu shortcut buttons. I flip between. Aside from the need for the occasional power-cycle, I have encountered zero problems with any of my Roku Devices.

@helplessduck @Roku My introduction to tech was back in the "if you shut down your PC incorrectly you'll render it useless" era so I get paranoid. Thanks for help.

I also never had a problem when streaming @BRWrestling PPVs on my Roku TV (which is now in the bedroom), but my current living room TV is an Android TV, wonder if that's the issue 🤔 @BleacherReport do better tho...

@abruce02 @askparamount one of the internet solutions is if none of the recommended fixes work, buy a Roku stick and launch the app from there, clearly that doesn’t work so I won’t waste my money trying that.

@WanderinDreamr @worldofcrap @Crunchyroll I was all Roku at one point and in the last UI update, CRs app became basically unusable due to how seasons are displayed. All AppleTV now and it’s much better.
