Playback fails with the AppleTV app on Roku

I am not finding the solution for "Video unavailable" when using the AppleTV app on Roku..... I have re-installed, reset the app, signed-in/signed-out, tried forcing it to play by clicking "Ok" repeatedly. I am beginning to think the app is dead.

video not available error on appletv app on Roku The AppleTv app is playing using Roku. Some shows can be played but others get a message saying "Video not available..There's a problem loading this video. If this continues, check your internet connection". These same episodes can be played by another family member on the family account using AppleTV. We can also play these episodes on a laptop and at the Ipad app. We reinstalled and updated the AppleTV app on Roku. The video troubleshooting on AppleTV said it couldn't find any problems. What else can we try?

AppleTV+ app on Roku constantly freezes My AppleTV+ app on Roku constantly freezes and stutters. All other streaming apps work fine. Apple claims it's Roku's problem, but the issue is only with Apple streaming. I've unplugged, rebooted, uninstalled the app, etc. The problem remains. Unfortunately, my Sony TV doesn't support the app so I have to use a separate device. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Roku app says "video unavailable" My wife and I are using the Apple TV app on Roku, and we have NEVER been able to watch anything. Every Apple TV+ film or series we have attempted to watch has returned a screen that says "Video Unavailable." We have tried updating the app, updating the Roku, reinstalling the app, uninstalling the app then restarting the Roku then reinstalling the app. Nothing has made any difference. Has anyone had a similar problem? Does anyone have a suggestion?

I appreciate that, but being told this is an AppleTV issue related to the app.
