I have the same problem & it’s driving me insane! Has anyone gotten a fix yet or heard anything from Roku?

I just contacted Hulu directly and was told they are aware of the issue and do not know when it will be solved. The agent said to check it each day and use another device in the meantime.

Thank you for the update. I tried to contact Hulu directly and had issues being able to report it was going to try again this evening but saw your update. Much appreciated 😊

Captions on Hulu are out of sync

Jump to solution

My captions are out of sync on the Hulu app. I’ve tried turning them off and back on through Hulu, changing it through accessibility settings, and restarting the whole system. Nothing helps it

I have the same issue. Only with my Roku TV. My other TV no problem.

I had Hulu helping me last night. We reset my Hulu 3 times. I had CC synced for 1 episode. Now back to same issue.

This needs to be fixed it's a major issue

I did all those suggestions also. I also worked with Hulu support. The problem still exists.

Roku needs to address this

Having the exact same issue. It’s as if the captions continue through commercials.
