if you open the netflix app that is installed on the tv, all seems well up until the point you actually try to play a piece of media. Choose the wrong movie or show, and your tv will immediate lose all picture, and picture will not return until you either unplug the tv for a few minutes, or enter the button command "home button x5, up button, rewind x2, fast forward x2" and power back on. Choose the right film or show, and you will recieve 15 or so minutes of uninterrupted play, followed by the abrupt loss of image altogether once again.
That all is to say, the netflix app behaves differently depending on the media you select, but using it unwaveringly results in the loss of image output from your tv (and its always before you can finish your show).
moving on... we tried problem solving. Hooked our Xbox series s up to the device, and tried to run the netflix app on it instead. No luck. Immediate loss of image output by the tv, before the xbox can even fully boot up the app.
before you suggest - we have already checked for updates to both the netflix app and the tv itself. Both are up to date. We have already reset the tv (many times) and the netflix app itself, no luck.
other streaming apps that we have tried (the tubi app) works fine and no issue was experienced after 10 consecutive hours of play. It is only netflix, and it is any form of netflix that you try, be it rokus netflix or xbox's netflix. Doing other things on the xbox does not produce the issue. It is only when you try to load up netflix that the tv immediately loses picture (audio persists in all cases)
i wish you the best of luck in solving this issue, my best guess is that it is foulplay from netflix. Perhaps netflix is trying to deter consumers from roku devices, for a competitor tv company maybe. Orrrr perhaps theres no drama and your devices are just in need of some sort of update regarding Netflix software specifically. I dont understand why this issue would extend to netflix ran through external devices via the hdmi channels though.
I have a Sharp Roku TV and it keeps dropping whatever I'm watching and switching to the Netflix login screen every 5 minutes or so. I'll be watching a movie on Amazon Prime or HBO and the screen will just go black, and switch over to Netflix. I went to the main menu and checked for the most recent software update, and it's up-to-date, so I'm not sure how else I can fix this. Please help. Thanks!
This would appear to be a remote issue. Please contact your TV's manufacturer directly to report this issue and request additional support. Each Roku TV manufacturer provides direct support and warranty services for their products running the Roku OS.
For my specific issue I finally have an answer. My son is pushing the "cast" button on his Ipad. It had nothing to do with the Roku, remote or TV and everything to do with casting. My son has low vision and hits the wrong icon when trying to perform a search.
There is something wrong - i am watching prime and it keeps switching back to netflix and my son gets logged out from Netflix on the Ipad whenever this happens. Very annoying - it happens often. This seems to be a bug Roku needs to fix it.
My TCL Roku keep switching to HBO this is ridiculous! TV only a year old to be having issues. I need some answers now! I would not be purchasing another TCL tv wouldn't be recommended to family members or friends.
@sagederek1111 @VirginMediaIE are you having any issues with internet speed in Dublin 8? I can't load any streaming app on my telly like Netflix or NOW TV and last night the quality of the picture on Netflix was poor and it kept pausing to load

@TomlinJeanne @Noonanovazara @mandijel @silverrich39 You are the one doing emotive crap claiming for example that anyone with problems paying heating bills is blowing their money on Lattes and Netflix.
@GonzalesMi8051 Just had a major power outage at home but thankfully the squad from the power company came through and got it fixed in no time. All is good again, can't wait to get back to my gaming sesh and catch up on some Netflix. Life's good when you've got a solid support system, right?
@1876Lulu @nathansldennis @afneil My very elderly parents do not have Netflix, mobile phones, eat avocado on toast, smoke, drink, have a car, drink latte's from Starbucks or anywhere else and have worked all their life's and raised 3 children all without claiming benefits. Your answer is absurd
@marc_downing @netflix It really sucks that you changed the windows app to where you can no longer download movies to watch offline. I work in remote areas a lot with no internet service, and it was great to be able to download titles to my laptop to watch offline. Not anymore. Thanks a lot ?
@swatson2022 @Theeban_07 @Yogace_Dfan No 152 is final gross. You can check any site.. 220 netflix is only 130 and now the 130 deal is also dropped due to bad response. OTT now looks for hit flop also. Same with for all movies including Rajni. And who said 220? Is it only OTT or digital+ satellite?
@virginmedia @FerryColum Hi Colum, sorry to hear you're having trouble with the Netflix app. Are you able to navigate between profiles at all on that screen or is it totally stuck? Are you having issues with any other apps on there?
@JensHonack @WiseMenMastery Ditch the cheap dopamine hits.News and politics? Overrated distractions.Alcohol and Netflix? Time thieves.College and salary? Not always the golden ticket.Cut these out, and you'll watch 99% of your problems vanish.
@highpriestjrry Hail Satan 666 Netflix is not loaded on my phone. Slow Internet connection. Like I said before the liber resh is a religious ritual that has protection under freedom of religion.
@Josiah_Caswell @WyattzWorId I switched a few weeks ago before going on a trip right now. My niece, who has Verizon, is struggling with service issues. Meanwhile, mine has been great. We also got Netflix and Apple TV to switch lol
@Agent16258 @ImYourWildBoi Agreed the pacing is also an issue as with adaptations of shows in Netflix. I do appreciate the integration of legends lore and having force abilities in live action like force repulse. I appreciated the lightsaber choreography.
@LeeCros77969139 @SkyHelpTeam anyone else having issues loading netflix through sky, all my other apps load fine and I've tried doing everything on the automated service but no joy, it's just spinning?
@ezrasf @WomanMiami @bulmasan It is performative. They publicly say "cancel Netflix" hoping someone else does. They knew Disney's beef with DeSantis and dropped thousands to Disney World anyway.
@ZoveriaTTV @GuardiaanAngel Yes but my Fortnite updates, game updates and downloads in general like Netflix and streaming services will improve significantly with faster internet. It was taking 4-5 hours to download a 10GB update lol
@ComodePoopSmith @chaz934 @NostalgiaFolder I remember getting disconnected from xbox live a million times back then before I upgraded to the 360 slim with built in wifi. Those old wifi antennas were awful and anytime my sister turned on Netflix, I would disconnect in a middle of a match
