Delay in watching TV using Roku 4K and watching same channel using Spectrum Cable Box

I have the Bedroom TV connected to Spectrum cable box. I have the Living Room TV using Roku 4K. When I go in and out of the 2 rooms, they are at different scenes,  The TV connected to the Spectrum cable box is ahead of the streaming Roku 4k stick . It's confusing when I'm changing rooms and I miss about 20 seconds of screen time if I go between rooms. Is this normal?

    We appreciate you reaching out for support and we'd be happy to provide further information about this.

    It is quite common for delays to occur when streaming live, particularly because various devices may handle the transmission differently. This can lead to discrepancies in the timing of the stream across different platforms.
