I was having the same issue using the Apple TV app on my LG TV. Some episodes would play, others would say Video Not Available and to check my internet connection. This happened for different shows. It wasn’t until I started seeing problems updating my software on Apple devices that I dug deeper and found a solution that has worked for me!


I went into my routers (I have eero) settings and changed the DNS servers to Custom, overriding the default settings. Delete/replace current DNS IP(v4) addresses to 1.1.1.1 (primary) and 1.0.0.1 (secondary). These are Cloudflare servers. The problem immediately resolved after my router restarted.


You can do this to your router that way every device connected to wifi will default to these settings, or, you can go into your wifi settings in each device like your Roku (usually under ”advanced” settings) and change the DNS manually for each device. Hope this helps! Definitely helped me!

I have checked my internet connection. The same problem has happened on my Apple TV 4k device - and only with the Apple TV+ content and does not happen with content from NetFlix, YouTube, Amazon Prime, Disney Plus, Paramount+, etc.


My network connection sustains 600Mbps but usually can burst to 900Mbps and the content needs less than 5Mbps


This seems to be a specific problem with content from Apple TV+

After months of no help, I got an Apple tech on chat

They had me change my Roku 4660x Ultra options under audio, HDMI—-changed from auto detect to Dolby Digital.


I rebooted the ROKU and voila. Morning Show, Ted Lasso all streamed perfectly.


Known bug apparently. Should have been published or answered here, but oh well. Let us know if this works on other ROKU devices. Happy Appling…..
