"Delete Recording" box blocks playback on Roku Premiere

[Paulmcc]

Lately while trying to watch a recording, I randomly see a black message box that says "Delete Recording  You appear to have completed watching ..., would you like to delete it?  Yes  No".   Note that the recording does play, but is obviously unwatchable, although audio is clear.  The screen around the black box is gray, and I can see the When I press the forward or backwards arrows, or FF or Rewind, it actually navigates to "Play", or other options that are not visible.  

Anyone else see this?  Any ideas of how to resolve it?

did the overnight reboot fix this issue?

I have this same problem with deleting a recorded program on xfinity stream. The box asking if you want to delete is frozen on the screen and forces me to reboot the streaming app to clear it. This is an annoyance and how can it be fixed?

Seeing the same thing after I watch and select yes to delete a show this box pops up on all future shows until I restart the xFinity channel.

I did a test and it did delete the recording however playing anything else gave teh same window in front of the current user interface. the window is somehow in memory. I could only get rid of it by exiting the Xfinity Stream TV beta channel and re-entering the channel.

I a man also having the same issue as others posted,  using the Xfinity Roku Beta

deleting a recording,  selecting another recording,--then a black box appears in the middle of the picture.  We have to exit the app and then re enter.

Hey! I'm having the same issue. Just wondering if some has a solution. Thanks in advance.

[ComcastChe]

Hi @gregoryrogers32, 

Welcome to the Xfinity Forum, and thanks for posting your question. I have not been able to isolate an exact cause for this problem but would be happy to help investigate this for you to help get it resolved. I will need to access your account to check a few things on the back end. 

Can you verify your first and last name in a private message by clicking on my name, "ComcastChe" then click send a message? 

[Lvella]

This is happening to me as well. The Delete Recording dialogue box is displayed once the show you are watching has ended. Once it’s displayed it overlays anything else that is displayed on the screen until you exit the application and relaunch. Obviously a bug that has been introduced with the latest version of the application.

@Lvella, 

I can investigate and create a ticket for the Advanced Tech's if needed. Please send me a message by clicking on my name, "ComcastChe" then click send a message. In the body of this message please verify your first and last name, and the name of the account holder if it's different than yours.
