It might help the engineers if you’re able to provide a little more Roku-specific information (model name/number, RokuOS, etc…) as well as what type of external device (if any) you are using on the Tablo. Also, wired/wireless (2.4ghz/5ghz) information.
Did anything change or improve – if you tried the cache clear/reset and reinstall tip I shared earlier?
If I’m understanding you correctly, this is expected behavior as you are watching a specific program based on selecting the program. If you are watching a channel live and want it to continue live after the end of the current program, select the channel itself in the guide.
I think @Nilex was trying to say that you might have different results if you click on the channel name/number/ID instead of clicking on the show title and selecting “watch”…
(Arrow all the way to the left of the screen where that info is, click OK, it will the channel will play immediately.)
I must not have been clear in my explanation. What you just explained you are doing, selecting a show from the guide, the expected behavior is it will stop viewing the channel at the conclusion of that program, because the program you were viewing has now concluded. If you want uninterrupted, continuing playback on that channel, select the channel name not the program name.
