I might be wrong, but I think those replies are confusing "autoplay next episode" with "autoplay show from the main menu". Above comment seems to be complaining about the latter, only the former can be turned off.
Unless the Roku app changed, it can't be disabled either. Every time I open Netflix it feels like a battle with the autoplay "feature" and I just close it off. I think I might cancel it in favor of Prime.
Depends on the Roku app. I have a roku and it never autoplays for Netflix but does autoplay for prime.
Roku will autoplay for most shows but they increased the delay before it begins. It's a nice preview now without having to navigate into the show's page.
