Re: Channel audio is in Spanish despite settings all being set to English

How about if you go to the Newsmax website and login over there.  Are you receiving the same Spanish feed? https://www.newsmaxtv.com/

Using a guest account, I am receiving English on the website and also on an alternate feed of Newsmax.  As stated, Newsmax2 seems to be playing in English as well.

Worse comes to worse, can cast it from the site to your Roku until addressed.  Be sure to make Newsmax aware of the issue.

In the past has taken a little while for Newsmax to respond to users. (I would just send to all three and hope it gets forwarded to their engineering team).

Same problem in NW Indiana on 2 phones and TV. PC's are fine. Seems to be only android devices. Submitted complaint. 

Who's buying their stock after this screw up?

Same... Both Roku app and android app both in Spanish. I live in Southern AZ. Very strange. Guess it's OANN tonight. Never Fox. 😉

I'm having the same issue on my Samsung smart tv. It's not just an issue with Roku devices! I'm not happy, especially since I have to pay for Newsmax+

I think you're right. AI is the cause of Newsmax having a Spanish translator take over the audio. They need to remove all the AI SyncWord. What were they thinking? How about 'If it ain't broke don't fix it'.

Live streaming of newsmax in Spanish instead of English

Jump to solution

Why is Roku streaming Newsmax live in Spanish instead of English? All other channels are in English.

I am having the same option, but not on my laptop.  Only on my tv's.  I even downloaded Newsmax on my TV (outside of my Roku) and it was still in Spanish....

I have no trouble on my laptop, it's my TVs, whether I'm going through Roku, or not!

I am having the same issue with NewsMax. It's not just Roku, it's also having the same issue on my phone app and Amazon Fire TV. I can pull up my Newsmax on the internet and it works just fine. I believe it's just the phone app, Roku NewsMax app and the Fire TV app. I tried to get hold of NewsMax but they're closed right now. If you want to watch it right now, pull it up on your phone browser and stream it to your TV. Sucks that this is happening. We pay for the NewsMax account.
