I just got a roku ultra today and the sound is working but the screen is showing an HDCP error

I’ve done everything to reset it, checked to make sure there’s internet, and I can’t get a picture. I’m beyond frustrated

Nice to meet you, *****!
Please do the following:

  • On both your Roku player and TV, AVR, or soundbar, unplug each end of the HDMI cable.
  • Power off your TV, AVR, or soundbar, and unplug its power cord.

Now do the following:

  • Reconnect both ends of the HDMI cable, making sure each connector is attached firmly and securely.

  • If the issue continues after attempting the instructions above, try the additional suggestions below.
  • Try a different HDMI input on your TV, AVR, or soundbar.
  • Try using a different HDMI cable, just to make sure the cable you are currently using does not have any defects.
