Koleckai Silvestri 1150 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Finally, a black theme. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tikuf 663 Posted April 18, 2014 Author Share Posted April 18, 2014 (edited) Well here it comes more teasing. The theming in roku is not quite ready but these little features will likely be available in beta over the next day or so. You can now just use the play button or hit the * button and play / play from here. Plus a couple more options for the menu on both tv and movies.

gcw07 347 Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Not sure why it would be region locked. Try this one: https://owner.roku.com/add/mediabrowser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you say "purple screen" do you mean this? http://forums.roku.com/viewtopic.php?p=399772&sid=07a5f32310def5837b324f6a9f10bd32 Edited May 3, 2014 by speechles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordbond 2 Posted May 4, 2014 Share Posted May 4, 2014 No writing, just a purple screen. Some of the files play now that didn't before. Most of my files are MKV files and some MKV files work and others don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tikuf 663 Posted May 4, 2014 Author Share Posted May 4, 2014 Try turning off dlna. I saw in another thread it fixed an issue that was similar. The streaming in the roku hasn't changed for some time so it is possibly a server change or that the firmware on the stick is different to the boxes (i don't have one the test on) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordbond 2 Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 I think just by chance I did turn off the DLNA since I wasn't using it. Some of the videos work now and others won't. Most of the files are MKV files that play fine on MBC. I have noticed something that may or may not help but I have noticed when I am using the Roku 1 the media browser splash screen is scrambled where on the stick it isn't. I think something might have changed on the server side as when I went back to the Roku 1 the same files wouldn't play on either one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Brown 0 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 (edited) My roku Media Browser screen when it first boots up is doubled and to the left there are many lines, Roku said to ask you guys . I think it is the roku what do you think. But it only does it on The media browser screen, it is a Roku 1, maybe a good excuse to get a Roku 3. Also I did hook it up to the same TV and HDMI that my Roku 2 is hooked up to in another room and it does the same thing so I think I can rule out cables or TV. I have listed a link so you can see the screen shot, I only have three days of warranty left. https://www.dropbox.com/s/cho9k6e5uj5p0ld/Media%20Browser%20Screen.jpg Thank you Jeff Brown Edited May 11, 2014 by Jeff Brown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gcw07 347 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Is this a "new" Roku 1? One of the ones they just recently released 6 months or so ago? Just making sure it isn't the super old original Roku 1 that I don't think can even run the channel at all. But I'm with you that it appears to be the Roku itself. The channel uses a standard splash screen (that is the screen your seeing double on). That is odd problem. Have you tried deleting the channel and re-adding it? Does it do the same thing on any other channels like Netflix or anything else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Brown 0 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 This Roku was bought in Feb 2014. Yes I have factory reset, deleted the channel and forced a software update. And as far as I know it only does it on that screen, maybe it changes resolution for a sec, ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as far as I know it only does it on that screen, maybe it changes resolution for a sec, ? OK, so it should be the newer one then. Roku had to use the same name twice with their models but like 3 years apart in releases so you never know. If resetting and reinstall doesn't fix it, then yeah not sure what to do. It does not do any resolution changes (at least nothing in the channel does that). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordbond 2 Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 (edited) I have the same issue with 2 Roku 1's bought this year. Doubt it is the hardware, One of them is only about a month old. I have a few playback issues also but I haven't had time to get logs together to send them. There is another Media Browser app here and I have the same playback problems except instead of it going back to the menu it just closes the whole channel. The splash screen on that channel displays properly though. Edited May 12, 2014 by lordbond Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What bitrate do you have the Mediabrowser App set to in its preferences on the Roku? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speechles 1920 Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 (edited) @@gcw07 @@Luke @@Tikuf Found a bug that crashes the client off right away. I wanted to do a clean reinstall on another pc, so moved my library and let it do its thing. Everything normal so far. Came back to the roku, pointed it at this new server and presto it migrated sweet. Now the problem stems from a new mediabrowser server setup, if the user clicks on the multi-click box, the one with resume, suggested, etc.. If a person is to choose suggested and the server has not had time to create this list this will crash the mediabrowser client on the roku. After this point, since, it remembers now the position it left off in. YES! You guessed it, this creates an infinite loop of never being able to enter the roku client at all. It will always crash right back out to the roku landing page. To resolve this one has to log into the web client, and start to favorite, like, change to weatched status and wait until the server has generated this information before you can ever enter the client again. I only mention this because I stumbled across this issue and for the life of me couldn't figure it out. You see before I migrated the pointer was on "suggested" I guess. This problem will turn off MANY users and switch them to plex in a heartbeat. I on the other hand reinstalled a second server after renaming the old, and started that and the problem became noticeable and reproduceable. Can this please get fixed ASAP. This affects every roku mediabrowser3 client (yes even that alternate weird pay version run under the radar here). But suffice to say, this problem must get fixed. Please fix it. Thank you all for such a wonderful media experience and to all a good respective day or night. Edited May 13, 2014 by speechles 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tikuf 663 Posted May 13, 2014 Author Share Posted May 13, 2014 Ya that shouldn't be to hard to put some error handler in there (i did think we had one that if results returned were 0 it reset the selected item to default ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
