Visio D 650i - B2 screen freezes when watching streaming videos. Remote and manual controls will not work have to power down by unplugging to recover.
@rearviewer you have not told us if it works with other inputs or if it has teh same issues when not streamed. If so, it’ll be an issue with your main board. You would have to remove the back of your TV and check the board for any obvious damage. Post some good pictures fo your boards with your question so that we can see what you see.

There are several reasons why your Roku would freeze all of a sudden in the middle of streaming something. The reasons for this can be attributed to several things and some of them are; A faulty internet connection caused by the router or your ISP. In which case, you must troubleshoot the issue accordingly.The HDMI connection between the Roku and the TV are not proper wherein you can try replacing the cable or try using a spare.A Roku server issue for which you must wait for Roku to resolve the issue.
I solved the issue by adding a Roku Streaming stick to the back of the TV, otherwise, i would have gotten rid of this TV. I will never buy a Vizio TV ever again!!
