This started happening today it’s a brand new tv so I am confused today when i started my wii u the roku would randomly goes black and say their was no signal but everything was connected fine I even started my switch 2 up to see if its the wii u and not the roku and when I did it did open the switch but the screen randomly flashed pink and black and half of the screen went dark and said HDR I did get a video of the HDR but I couldn’t get one of the pink flashes but I unplugged everything and plugged stuff back in the switch started working fine for the one min I had it open but the wii u is still going on and off not really sure what to do this tv is probably 2 months old is it the hdmi plug or the roku or one of the settings ?? (sorry if this is worded badly)

Hear me out: windows 3d pipes?

I bought a RokuTV stick and connected it to my projector, and every other button works, except for the volume button. I’ve tried setting up my remote again and unplugging the stick from the projector, but nothing seems to work. Would love some advice.
Thank you!!

I've got a few Roku indoor and outdoor cameras, but I'm trying to figure out if I should keep going with this brand or switch to something else before I'm in too deep. Are their doorbells and lights actually worth it? I'd love to hear your pros and cons and if you think I should stay the course or look into a different ecosystem.

Is the post in question. Problem is, it wasn't fixed or the problem is back. Every time I turn off my TV it renames my inputs. I tried fixes Google suggested, but none of them work. Any advice?

Turned on TV and Roku was factory reset. I reinstalled all updates. Usually when I turn on my TV it goes right to my streaming box now it doesn't it goes right to the Roku interface Does anyone have this problem? There used to be an option to select what launches.

Issue: This is an issue where I am trying to add a second voice remote (not Pro) to an existing Roku and have it act appropriately. I have an IR/RF remote tester that tells me the remotes work.  They are all emitting an RF signal with each button press. 

I have 6 Roku streaming sticks of various ages. One of them (probably 4-5 years old)  has two remotes and they both function flawlessly (bedroom).  All the others except one (the one I am about to detail) have a single remote and work just fine. 

OK, Now onto the problem child. The issue I am having involves adding a second remote (living room).  It pairs fine. The issues are:

1. It sometimes freezes. None of the buttons work except the TV volume & power.  The resolution is to take the batteries out for 5 seconds and reinsert them. The remote comes alive. 

2. Sometimes it takes a press or two of a button to get it to respond.  Almost as if to "wake it up. If I am lucky it will continue to work for a few hours. Sometimes the Roku never responds.  

This most recent Roku is a brand new 3830RW purchased a month ago. It came with a remote. I added this remote as a second remote and it acted up as above. I have a different remote paired with now that works flawlessly (RC1002).  I am not allowed to remove this remote from the system or I will be homeless (wife).  I had another Roku (3820) from September of 2025.  I was only able to test it with a few remotes as I quite quickly figured with 3-4 remotes acting up, it might have been the Roku itself (hence my current, new one from a month ago). 

I have tried several remotes both older and brand new and have similar results. I have tried several methods of pairing them. Trying various combinations of reboots, power cycling, deleting, rebooting, re-pairing etc. Nothing seems to work. 

I was in a chat yesterday with Roku support for several hours. I started with the BOT, then got secondary support, then third level. Ultimate conclusion on their part was faulty remote hardware. Recommended returning it to Amazon.

Not so fast.  As I mentioned above, I have tried adding several remotes (all voice remotes none Pro) as second remotes and they ALL have had issues. I got so pissed yesterday, that I ordered 5 remotes from Amazon. I was going to go through all of them today to see if I could get ONE to work as a second remote.  I have only got through one so far, and it is acting the same. I'd prefer to not go through all 5 at this time.  The issue is clearly not the remotes themselves, but why does one work?  

One thing I'll add:  When I initially paired the working remote with the new, current Roku (3830RW), and went through the TV volume & power setup, it paired with the TV on try #1. Music stopped).  On all of the other remotes I tried, none would pair on try #1, They ALL paired on try #5. 

Yes, it's confusing. The long and short of the issue is that I can not seem to get two remotes to function properly on two different Roku streaming sticks with this TV (Samsung QN65S95DAFX. Yet, I can get one remote to work on both streaming sticks with this TV. 

 I am open to any thoughts or suggestions.

Thanks. 

This pop up screen featuring "Up next" and "Switch to" always shows up a minute before the show on Roku Live TV ends.

Is there any way to get rid of this, as I'm getting tired of having to close it every single time.

I use a projector for most of my viewing and gaming in my bedroom, but it's an older dumb one. So I got myself a roku stick to see about getting my mobile device mirrored up... And it has been maddening to try and wade through what programs are free, aren't completely drowned in ads, or are so obviously clones of one another... It's a joke.

Baseline it seems my phone uses chromecast protocol, but is able to connect in some apps over airplay? But this far it either can't see the stick, is too laggy, or as stated the apps aren't free or are so drowned in aps to be unusable.

Anyone have any suggestions on what to use? Natively my phone is unable to see the roku stick, so that seems to be out.

I'm looking for full screen mirroring btw, not just on an app by app basis.

Thanks.

The inputs aren't loading, not sure what to do.. everything else loads except the inputs 😵‍💫

Roku Ultra won't play YouTube videos at more than 1x speed without stuttering . I have 2 other roku 4k devices that play youtube videos at 2x without any audio/video stuttering on same network as the Ultra. I also have an ONN 4K pro streamer attached to the same TV on the same network as the Roku Ultra and it has no problems playing YouTube videos at 2x speed.....so, I am thinking this is a hardware issue with this specific device. It is Model 4850X-Ultra; Serial Number: X02800FEATGG; Software version 15.3; Device ID: SOVS35AEATGG; I have only had this for a few months so it's within the warranty period. Please advise. Thanks.

They look like fake news flashes, targeting people on medicaid, insurance, ect. Is there a place to report these or something?

The Roku wireless speakers were working flawlessly. I’ve factory reset the television and speakers. Now the Roku TV can’t find the speakers to pair. Anyone else having this issue?

Nothing is casting anymore I use web video caster and Cassidy neither will cast anything I tried different videos nothing works I rebooted the roku unplugged the router still nothing works

I can put the remote infront of the light and it still doesn't detect anything. This remotes fairly new.

I've had the new Roku device for about a month and it's been freezing up the whole time. At first I thought it was the battery, which it seemed to be on my old device (same) but not this one. The tv volume works fine and never freezes up. Any thoughts?

I've been trying to return a Roku Ultra online but everytime I hit "Return" it simply puts up a blank page labeled Roku Support - Return/Replace. I tried the chat box which simply sends me back to the online returns page again. I called support and got a gentleman who was very nice, but seemed a bit confused. In the end he gave me a support ticket number and said a member of the Returns Team was going to email a return authorization and instructions for returning the UItra.

Two minutes after I hung up I did get an email from Roku Support telling me the ticket had been closed. Nothing from the "Returns Team".

Has anyone ever been able to return one of these within the 30 day window?

Hello, I recently bought a used Roku TV (TCL 55S455) from FB but the remote (RC80) is really bad at staying paired. I’ve noticed that when I reset the TV via the reset button the remote pairs perfectly but right when I connect to my dorms wifi the remote disconnects and does not pair again at all. I tried different batteries, unplugging the TV, and more but still no fix. I can’t use the Roku remote app because I can’t connect to WiFi since the controller disconnecting doesn’t let me continue with signing in. I’m sorry if my explanation is super bad it’s super late and I had a long day. I hope someone is just able to help me

We got Roku sticks for our office to cast our computers too. I have been through the ringer with settings and stuff, it connected yesterday for a few hours and worked fine but not sure why it won't work every time I fire it up. It also disconnects from the internet every time it powers off, etc. Anyone have a fix for a similar issue? Chances are I have tried it but I am at my wit's end with it this morning.

There is 2:17 right below a floating hand, and another 2:17 near a basketball hoop with a gorilla finishing a basket. What does it mean?

Bought an ONN tv about 5 months ago after having a smaller one for years. Sadly this one didn’t last as long before experiencing issues. It appeared while I was watching something and nothing had hit the TV.

Within the last few weeks, I've been served up commercial advertisements on Roku that pertain to products whose ads I interacted with on Instagram.

Coincidence?

If not, then how to stop the spying?

Can someone confirm what this new car is? I was thinking Hotel Transylvania but I can't hint a matching image. The other similar car is from The Munsters.

Also - what is this egg like thing from?
