Do shows and movies on Roku look washed out? You're not alone.
- Multiple reports claim Roku’s latest update has caused 4K and HDR content to become washed out.
- Standard definition and high definition content appear to be unaffected.
- Roku says the problem is currently being investigated.
Roku OS 14.5, the latest software update, has been rolling out widely to Roku devices recently. According to the release notes, this update fixes various bugs and improves the user experience. However, a growing number of users are now saying that this update has made 4K and HDR content almost unwatchable.
As of last Thursday, Roku announced in a community forum that it has begun investigating an issue that may be connected to OS 14.5. This announcement comes after a growing number of reports claim that movies and TV shows now appear washed out after the update.
