![]() ![]() I use a $24 Sofabaton F2 slip-on universal/learning remote to control the tv. They're just dumb in a less harmful way now.).įor streaming: I've added a $22 Firestick Lite to one. I'm using both my tvs that way (as "dumb" tvs. That info comes from broadcast EPG data.). It does display the channel's program info when you change to a channel. So, losing the slow guide was all upside to me. I always used titantv or zap2it from my phone or laptop. (Plus, I never used the on-screen guide anyway. I'm not subject to Roku's Mad Hatter reliability issues. The only possible downside is that there's no guide info, But, then again, I see that as an upside. Captions on mute work again (although I've seen others saying it's working again without cutting the cord the way I did). That, is a much more usable antenna tv experience (for me). SOLUTION: I factory-reset my two Roku tvs, but during the initial setup I told them I would connect to the internet later (but, never did). On one occasion (something slow between me and the guide), it took 10 seconds to change channels. (Some people who watch antenna tv without internet couldn't even watch anything.). But, after 9.4, my channel changing became slow due to what looked like waiting for the guide info. I don't recall what it looked like, or how it changed in 9.4. ![]() You may have already had 9.4, but something went wrong with the online guide Roku uses. A lot of peoples' antenna-tv experience was degraded by 9.4. If that date coincides with when this behavior started, you may have been affected by one of Roku's untested updates. It should tell you when your tv was last updated. After reading other posts this is beginning to look like a wide spread issue. ![]()
