-
Sarah with an h (@SarahDoesKC) reportedThis is a total first world problem, but I lose my mind that it takes 12 minutes and 85 clicks to finally get to the show I’m trying to watch and one accidental step of my dog to wind up on Roku Greatest Hits.
-
Shakingmyhead (@mitchroachmr2) reported@paramountplus @ufc is not working on any @Roku devices. Works perfectly on my iPhone. Figure it out! I’ve completed all troubleshooting possibilities.
-
austin bb (@popespeed) reported@Sling on @Roku Sling channels with scoreboard inset (e.g. ESPN), the Roku "*" function button does not work (to bring up menu to adjust brightness/other settings). Have to exit to a different channel before I can adjust settings. Is there a fix (or way to disable scoreboards)?
-

-
Brittney (@hope_britt) reported@DIRECTV & @Roku count your days! Why would you allow a customer to sign up via Roku and thru your services for the same exact product. Why tf would i sign up for the same sorry *** service twice! & for @Roku not to issue refunds after I’ve been charged twice is crazy
-

MrScottFletcher (@MrScottFletcher) reported@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.
