@paramountplus I tried watching this with my 4 year old and this platform is laggy and glitchy like crazy! Only app on our smart tv or roku that does this.. fix your platform if you expect anyone to stay on

@AMCPlus I would like to watch this, but your app doesn't work on Roku. Crap customer service.

@kajinman_art Personally I’ve had little to no problems on my Roku. I think my only complaint was certain shows or movies would on occasion do double subtitle posts.

@RockBottomNews1 @BleacherReport This was one my android phone, one 3 separate laptops, on Roku that didn't work. Even try digging out my old Chromecast no luck.

@weatherchannel You need to look into your roku app. It keeps giving an error. Has been for several days. You also need a support link on your website.

@MLBRandomStats I got rid of my Fire Sticks for this reason. Switched to Roku and have zero problems.

@ShaneBitterling Idk if it helps but I saw someone else today on Twitter say that they were having trouble with theirs today? I don’t use Roku so I have no idea how it works. Might be a coincidence. Thought I’d say something before you buy a new one.

@erikjodko I did. That didn't work. I bought the event using the b/r app on my phone using Google pay. I can use the paid chat on the stream but not view the stream. Roku and browsers say I need to buy it. I bought revolution the same way with no hiccups.

Watching #ObiWan and I’m getting a message stating that my @Roku TV is overheating. Never seen it before. Any thoughts or ideas, tech friends? Maybe because of the stream quality?

@Roku If only my roku would connect to my wireless. Off & on issue for two years. No customer service to speak to.

@mrbusche I used it on my Roku but I had to change a setting that would allow it to downgrade the stream from HD to SD or it would buffer like hell. Don't have this problem with any other apps, tho.

@GameSack I could only get 5.1 on the PS5. Fire TV 4K Max, Apple TV 4K gen 2, and 2019 Shield TV Pro didn’t work. I tried disabling all audio formats but Dolby. Haven’t tried Xbox Series X, Roku Ultra 4670 or Fire TV Cube gen 2 yet. I don’t know if it’s equipment, setting, or just YouTube.

@BackupHangman Ordered it thru Sling and it was jittery no matter if I ran it thru Roku/Sling or the version built into my tv. Thought about B/R next time but you all have me worried now. I know someone who had no issues with Fite TV

@BallySportWest your Roku app hasn’t worked for 2 weeks. Seen a lot of others online complaining about the same thing. Any plans to fix this?

No wonder Roku stock is in the toilet…their remotes drain batteries in seconds and the app is pure trash. Unless you’re willing to replace batteries every 30 minutes, their remote doesn’t work. Garbage!

The AirBNB we're staying at has Roku on it and we with that HBO Max meaning I can watch all their terrible movies without having the fact I paid for it on my conscience meaning I can give my raw, unadulterated, unhinged opinion on it.
