Hi there lynsa,


It sounds like you're encountering video issues on the Apple TV app running only on your Sony TV devices. The steps below may help find and resolve the issue you're encountering:


Troubleshoot your video connection in the Apple TV app
If you’re having problems playing video, you can try video troubleshooting to test your network connection and help you resolve any issues.

1. In the Apple TV app TV app, navigate to Settings. 
2. Go to Video Troubleshooting, select Start, then follow the onscreen instructions.

Those steps are from this article: Troubleshoot your video connection in the Apple TV app


You could also see if resetting the Apple TV app may help. If needed, this article shows how: Reset the Apple TV app


Let us know how those steps go or if you've already tried those steps.


Take care.
