When logged int Netflix:

[3] When trying to select, changing selection takes > 30s.
[4] Unable to change selections.
Before proceeding, may we know if this is the only channel affected by this? If so, are there any error messages prompted on your screen? Since you've performed all the possible troubleshooting steps provided on this thread, we highly suggest reaching out to the channel provider themselves (Netflix Support) for further assistance and clarification, as they are the ones who provided and maintained their channel on the Roku streaming platform. Their channel may need an update from them.
Could you please specify if this issue is only with a particular channel or specific content? We suggest trying a system restart by going to Settings > System > Power > System restart to see if that resolves the issue. If it doesn't, we recommend following the troubleshooting steps provided in this support article on how to resolve a channel playback issue.
May we know what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far? Also, when did you start seeing this issue? Alternatively, upon exhausting the provided fixes, were you able to communicate with the channel provider to inquire further and ask for additional troubleshooting steps? If so, what were your findings?
Following up on this as well... let's see if I can be relatively organized and systematic in how I describe the issue and steps already taken (although assume anything basic like remove/reload app was tried ages ago).
My Netflix "jams up" for lack of a better term, like others in this thread. Mine manifests as such: starting most any program on Netflix will begin for a short period of time, within 30 seconds, the show will start lagging, the audio will drop out (captions will keep running for a bit), then it'll buffer and eventually overload and the app will reset, or it'll just overload and I'll manually have to press the home button a few times for it to "crash" the Netflix app. Immediately going back into Netflix and trying again, yields the same result. Waiting until later, usually yields the same result.
2) I have four active Roku devices two stream bars, one stick, and this TCL/Roku TV. The only device where this is an issue is the TCL/Roku TV. I have not contacted Netflix as this issue does not appear to be any other devices. Just one specific piece of hardware, this TCL/Roku TV.
A simple search of this thread, and then this forum, shows there's no lack of "Netflix and Roku" issues. Is Roku currently acknowledging the volume of recurring/similar issues? Is Roku currently working on fixing this issue?
We're glad you are here so we can best assist you. To use casting, the supported app must be installed on your mobile device and Roku TV. You must also connect your phone or tablet to the same wireless network as your Roku device. You can do this wirelessly with supported apps like YouTube and Netflix by opening the casting icon on the mobile device on your phone or tablet and selecting your Roku device.
I have never been able to use Android's native cast (Cast Connect) to cast through my Roku devices. Some of my previous Android phones were able to use Google Cast to cast some content (ie. Youtube, Netflix, etc-- that symbol that allowed user to cast to TV from within the opened app.)
I just use third party casting apps now when needing to cast content from my Android mobile devices to the Roku device. My personal preference is Web Video Caster (WVC), but others like Castify and Tubio work fine also.
With all the above, you install the app on your mobile device or phone (all can be found in the Play Store), and then you install a companion receiver on your Roku device. (all found in the Roku Channel Store).
The apps mentioned above are free (with ads on phone), and all offer paid features also. WVC is a one-time purchase of $3 or $4 for an ad-free full featured lifetime use, but the free version works perfectly fine. (a few additional features with the paid version).
Is there a way to cast from my mobile device to my Roku tv using Androids screen cast feature or if I'm in a mobile app for which an equivalent app is unavailable on Roku tv? I've been able to do these functions on my Android TV.
You can of course cast to your Roku TV what you are already watching on your mobile device. To use casting, the supported app must be installed on both your mobile device and your Roku streaming device. You must also make sure to connect your phone or tablet to the same wireless network as your Roku device.
You can do this wirelessly with supported apps like YouTube and Netflix by opening the casting icon on a mobile device on your phone or tablet and selecting your Roku device. The channel will launch automatically on your Roku device and playback will begin.
If you are unable to cast Netflix from your phone to your Roku TV even though you have downloaded the Netflix app on both devices and they are connected to the same Wi-Fi network, there are a few things you can try:
Note: The Screen Cast icon may be located in different locations depending on your Android phone model and version of Android. If you can't find it in the Quick Settings panel, try searching for it in the Settings app. Additionally, not all Android phones support screen casting, so make sure your device is compatible before attempting to cast.
We can get Netflix on our Bush 24" TV and on our Samsung Qled tv in living room but today we can no longer get Netflix on our bedroom tv. A message repeatedly comes up "this device is not compatible with Netflix. Go to "www.netflix.com/compatibledevices" but this is of no help. Our Netflix subscription is changing on the 2nd June but why is there suddenly a problem now? Anyone got any ideas of how we can restore compatibility? I've tried software update, checked there is good internet connection (20Mbs), unplugged the set for 10mins. Online holds out possibility of downloading "Firmware" on to USB flash drive then plugging in to tv USB socket to update but I can't find this "firmware" anywhere on Samsung site. Please can you help!
If you your TV states the app is no longer supported Netfliix has stopped updating the app for your TV. Only way to get it too work again would be to get a Chromecast, Amazon, Roku streaming device and plug it into your HDMI port on your tv it states on Netflix's website that you posted
Hi, i only yesterday got around to resetting my Mail password to discover several emails telling me about Netflix being added to my account and to "click here" to register. When i clicked, the link said there was a problem.
I called VM Support and they didn;t appear to understand my issue and stated "your registration will be fixed within 5 days". Don;t know how that'll work as VM has no idea what my Netflix account info is.
I've signed out of my Netflix account (everywhere) and reset my password so i'm happy that what's showing on the Netflix channel and App is not my account (it hasn't been hi-jacked). I would though like to view Netflix on my VM box so need the other account to be gone...
Click OK on your 360 remote on the screen that you just posted. On the next screen use the navigation buttons to move all the way across to the left. It opens another side panel. Don't worry about not being able to understand the language/symbols on this screen or the following ones.
I recently changed TV and lost the Paramount+ App (from the TV Apps) and found the App on the VM Box. I then saw the Netflix App and thought, well why not use it, especially as the basic access is free.
Think i have a Tivo Box, the settings above aren;t visible to me. I can select "Home > Settings" but there's nothing obvious to me to find Netflix (I've been thru most of the menu options within Settings).
In summary the costs and functionality are the same. The only change is that you are billed for Netflix through BT instead of being billed by Netflix. Lots more detail here: -about-tv/channels-and-packages/netflix-from-bt
