Channels & viewing

On the ROKU channel, when a commercial comes up the episode freezes, but the commercial audio plays. When it finishes, the screen goes blank. If I press the right arrow then OK, the commercial will start over with both audio and video, and then the episode continues.

This only happens when I'm watching streamed TV episodes like "Crossing Jordan" and "Third Watch" (those are the only episodes that I have been watching on the ROKU channel).
