I have three TVs in my house, each with a Roku Streaming Stick. One of the TVs displays a black screen whenever I choose a program to watch. For example, I can choose Amazon Prime or FrndlyTV, and browse within the app, but whenever I push play, the screen goes black. I can hear the program, but I cannot see the program. There is no problem with the other two TVs. I have tried turning the TV off and back on, and I have disconnected the stick and placed it in a different slot. There are no codes being displayed.

@readfam6, have you tried a "System restart" located under Settings->System or Settings->System->Power?
