![]() ![]() The Cloud cast channel should launch and your recordings should begin playback. While we look into alternatives, please see the information below for options for your Roku player.įor PlayOn Home recordings (if you prefer to use a mobile app), you need to Cast directly from the PlayOn Cloud app Home section to the Roku player. Unfortunately, Roku decided to delete these channels over the last few days. We had lost the ability to update these apps a while back, but the channels remained in the channel store. The PlayOn and MyMedia channels for Roku were made using the old SDK which Roku decided to no longer support. Thanks Trevor! I appreciate it enough that maybe it will help someone else reading! It includes things that you’ve seen here already as well but I take hope in the looking for alternatives, but it begins with what happened. Ok just got this reply to my ticket, sent right before this thread. I originally posted separately in the thread so it updates anyone who responded or is tracking this thread issue. Replacing the original post with a link to the post further down that gives the response I got from Trevor from support as it explains things, details options, and indicates they are looking into their own options besides casting and the Roku Media player workaround. However, though I had it several months ago, if you don’t have it, I haven’t been able to locate it in the channel store, so if you have it, I hope you get to keep it functional!!!! Shout out to SeaSkyGuy71 who mentions the old Pla圜ast app also on Roku (apparently still there for some), as it leads to the same as the PlayOn app, including the media library and ad-skip. It shows the hard coded subtitles from PlayOn Desktop days though. ![]() What the Roku media player can’t do is skip ads or show the newer subtitles. It will come up as a splash screen when you are casting, be it from the current PlayOn Cloud app or the older legacy app which is laid out better for searching and lets you add to PlayOn home queue or PlayOn desktop queue. ![]() When you search for PlayOn Cloud, if it’s installed, it will not show up as a tile on your Roku screen, because you can’t access it directly. You DONT have to sign into all your subscriptions if you’re not using the PlayOn cloud services. You do sign in with your PlayOn Home account email. Note: casting from the PlayOn Cloud mobile app WORKS even if you’re NOT using or paying for PlayOn Cloud credits. Otherwise using the PlayOn cloud mobile app does see PlayOn Desktop/PlayOn Home. Unfortunately, you have to have held onto that app cuz it’s not available on the iOS store. The PlayOn legacy mobile app still casts to Roku if you have PlayOn Cloud installed on your Roku, in case you prefer that to the the newer PlayOn Cloud mobile app on your device, so that is a separate workaround if you have it, and it skips commercials (not sure if it does in the media library) but doesn’t do the new subtitles. It even includes a purple gear box labeled settings which shows known issues and server options including several things. Now look for the yellow computer looking icon in the M part, to access your Media library Any channels inside are alphabetical, just like the original PlayOn desktop app, though the icons look bigger on mine than before. Otherwise it’s just the icon with the blue P.Ĭlick and off you go. Any USBs attached should follow that icon if you have any. the access to your PlayOn server will be a blue P icon and above it says PlayOn. If you don’t have Roku Media Player, install it from the Roku channel store. Immediate workaround (without ad skip and subtitles unless it’s an older PlayOn recording with the burned in ones) Issue: original PlayOn app for Roku and the MyMedia channels disappeared from Roku completely.Įdit: thanks to herrservo’s and great Houdini’s posts farther down, which gave me the idea to spell out the workaround I’ve posted in this post and a few others instead of just referring to Roku media player! ![]()
