SynRen (@SynRen) reported@Roku I brought a brand new Roku TV on 07/05/24, now it does not work. It has a black screen. I called Roku and did all the troubleshooting, and they said the hardware is dead. I think they should replace their defective product. Yet it says it should last 5 years minimum.

Brian Hoyt (@OhioBrian) reportedWho else is having serious lag and spooling on @YouTubeTV tonight on @Roku. No other streaming services have issues. Yes, I have restarted the app and the whole #Roku This seems to happening more and more. The service was more reliable before they started jacking up prices

-
Ki (@Ki_fun_thoughts) reported@Ask_Spectrum I noticed a bill for $115 MORE on my Spectrum. Turns out, without getting my permission, anyone can add TV services from their TV. Spectrum blamed @Roku - NOT Roku's fault! This is 100% Spectrum ALLOWING my credit card to be billed. Yo Spectrum, FIX IT!
-
Rikki Ratliff (@rikkiratliff) reported@james37144 @Roku It's working for a lot of people but as Glenn said on radio and on the Commuity page it still needs polishing but we tried to get it up in time to work out the kinks before the special.

Dr. GigaDad, PharmD, BCPS, BCEMP (@Shayne_McKee_) reported@enhanced_games @Roku @ResortsWorldLV Crazy that it took you until now to announce where you’ll be hosting the games. Terrible marketing.
-
Dr. Stack Sats & HODL (@NoBagHolder) reportedDear @MLBTV please fix your @Roku app. Every time I try to resume a game the next day from where I turned it off, the broadcast begins where I left off, immediately crashes, and then starts back at the beginning of the game when I restart it.
-

Stratosfear Tully 🇺🇸🏳️🌈 (@tullyfur) reportedI'll NEVER buy another @Roku TV. Mom's is 8 years old and it was fine. Turn it on, it had all her channel numbers on antenna. Recently it's "updated" with no channel numbers, no way to just have antenna channels, and she wants to replace it because it's "broken". Garbage product.

🎣 (@SpangleAngler) reported@Roku If the playback speed on Roku TV for U-Tube videos suddenly stopped working and that feature is no longer even available (it once was), is that fixable through Roku support or is that @YouTube who would fix it? Our family's TV used to have playback speed options but now doesn't
