Re: Why is channel 741 (The Walking Dead Universe) in Spanish?

Sometimes its in English, and then it will switch mid episode to spanish. I speak Spanish. But perfer the original actors choices as dubs are always **bleep**. You don't get the same intensity etc . It's annoying.

I second this. There isn't a way to switch it back to english

Hi @Catcarson,

Thank you for the additional information, and greetings from the Roku Community!

We'd love to investigate this issue further. Could you provide us with a video clip or photo of your running problem?

We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Thanks,

Re: Why is channel 741 (The Walking Dead Universe) in Spanish?

I believe most, if not all of us complaining are using a Roku device, and watching the Roku app.  The Walking Dead Universe station (English version) is now showing The Walking Dead.  It appears that the first two seasons go back and forth from Spanish to English audio without any of us doing anything to make this happen.  Just now I am watching Season 2, Episode 8.  It started off in English until after the 2nd commercial break.  Now they're all speaking Spanish.  I'm continuing to watch (even though I don't speak a lick of Spanish) because I know that in another episode or two it will go back to English.  It seems the problem resolves after the 3rd season and everyone is speaking English throughout the series.  But this just started happening this month when Fear The Walking Dead ended on 1/31 and The Walking Dead started on 2/1.

I woke up to Spanish.. checked all the same things and everything points to English yet it's in Spanish. 

   Not only that,  but it's only amc the walking dead universe channel 741. What's up? Anyone figured out a fix for this?

I'm not exactly a developer yet but it seems to be an interference from elsewhere.  Maybe hacked.  Since the commercials and all other English speaking shows aren't doing it,  it seems more likely than not.  I hope someone is working on this,  like as we speak.

Re: Why is channel 741 (The Walking Dead Universe) in Spanish?

I've been watching for two months now, Fear the Walking Dead was fine. But this is the second time that they've gone through the cycle season 1 to the end and both times from season 1 to season 4 not sure which episode it continues to play in Spanish and then switches to English for the rest of the episodes. Crazy! It's like Roku got a good deal on buying some footage of The Walking Dead and they got banboozled with the first four seasons in Spanish 🤣 what's going on Roku?

I would like to supply you with a clip but there's nowhere here where it will allow somebody to add a clip. Taking a picture isn't going to show you how it's being spoken in Spanish

Hopefully it'll be in all English again in about 12 hours once it gets into season 3 a good bit. And Hopefully Roku you will have this fixed before TWD starts over again. My two years in Spanish in HS didn't prepare me for this😂 help!
