Can't pause live stream on Roku app

Post by EddieA »

Is this supposed to work.

I can "rewind" by using the left navigation arrow, but being able to pause would be much preferable.

Cheers.

Use the FF, RW, and Play/Pause buttons on the Roky remote.

The play/pause button has no effect, hence my question.

The RW does what it should. The FF gives a black screen until the live broadcast catches up with how far forward the timeline skipped.

Cheers.

That's interesting, just reproduced the problem.

Workaround - Press the down button to bring up the channel list (slice view), then press back to clear the screen and return to watching TV... the pause button now works.

We will get this fixed.
