i have a problem playing Netflix on Roku tvs, my girlfriend family had the same problem but hook up anything external device to the Roku tvs and play Netflix though the external device Netflix will play just fine , anyone else this problem ?

I take it all the tvs are updated.

yes

How old is it?

I’m having issues with Netflix on my Roku as well.

just yesterday my girlfriend went and bought herself a fire stick to fix the problem her room

Weird why Roku is having this problem. One would like it would've been noticed before.

How old are the TVs? I don't recommend using smart TVs to stream. Even if it's a Roku tv. That software will eventually get too old and they stop updating it.

I don't recommend it either. My friends were having trouble with YouTube TV on a recent (2-3 yr max) Sony 4K. They got an Apple TV and haven't had one problem since. My nephew just had to do the same thing for his Roku TV (720p cheap)... I put a Fire Stick on it and everything is fine,

Same exact experience for me. For whatever reason, "smart" TVs - even higher end ones - seem to be almost immediately underpowered for running streaming apps. Apple TV has been solid as a rock for me and I haven't looked back.

We try to avoid the onboard software whenever possible.

We’ve been using a 4K Chromecast for a little while now and it’s pretty problem free.
