    Hi Jgabriel,

    A warm welcome to the Roku Community!

    For clarification, does the blue screen issue only occur on a specific channel or across other channels installed on your Roku device? If all the channels are affected, you can try these troubleshooting steps below:

    1. The video cable is not connected properly or the cable is faulty
      • Check that the video cable is firmly connected to the back of your Roku player and to the HDMI or composite connector on the TV. If you have a Roku Streaming Stick, then make sure it is firmly connected to the HDMI connector on your TV.
      • If you can, check to see if you have a faulty cable by connecting your Roku player with a different cable.
    2. There is a problem with the TV
      • If you can, try connecting the Roku player to a different input on the TV to see if the problem is with the connector on the TV.
      • If you can, try connecting the Roku player to a different television to see if the problem is with your Roku player or the TV.
    3. If all else fails…
      • Disconnect and reconnect all cables including the power cable.

    Moreover, if the problem only happens on one channel, removing the app then reinstalling it may help. To ensure the process is successful, make sure to restart your device before adding the channel back in. We would recommend doing this from the Settings menu by navigating to Settings > System > Power (If you do not see a Power submenu, skip to the next step.)

    For detailed instructions, refer to this Support link: How do I resolve channel playback issues?

    Please keep us posted on what you find out.

    All the best,

    Chel
