Hello @Daph,

Welcome here to the Roku Community!

It appears that your Roku device is experiencing difficulties playing videos while the audio and captions work properly. To troubleshoot this issue, we suggest trying the following steps:

  1. Unplug the Roku device and then plug it back in.
  2. Uninstall the channel by highlighting it, pressing the * button, and selecting remove.
  3. System restart by navigating to Settings > System > Power/System restart.
  4. Reinstall the channel by pressing the home button on your Roku remote, scrolling and selecting Store, and then adding the Channels.

Let us know if these steps help!
