Welcome to the Roku Community, @Cpm1!

Thanks for reaching out. We'd be happy to help you determine the cause and get you back on streaming.

Before proceeding, kindly provide us with additional information such as follows:

• What model is your Roku TV? (Hisense, TCL, ONN, Select Series, Pro, Series, Plus Series, etc.)
• Did your TV recently receive any software updates prior to this happening that might trigger this issue? 
• Is this happening on a specific app?
• Can you still hear any audio? 

Once we have this information, we'll be able to assess your concern better and provide the most accurate resolution.

We'll be looking forward to your response.

Best regards,
Carly

Welcome and thank you for posting here in the Roku Community, @julielovejay!

Thanks for reaching out. We'd be happy to provide further information about this and suggest some steps to help you troubleshoot. 

Firstly, may we know if this is only happening on a specific channel? If so, we highly recommend following the steps provided below:

1. Remove the channel: navigate to your Home screen, move to the right, highlight the app, press Star*, then select Remove channel
2. Perform a system reboot: navigate to your Home, select Settings > System > Power (skip if unavailable) > System restart
3. Re-install the channel: navigate to your Home, scroll and select Store, look for the app, then press Add channel

If this does not happen on a specific app, it might be a hardware issue; in this case, we highly recommend reaching out to your TV manufacturer, as they are responsible for issues like this.
