If so, is the audio a little garbled? Trying to figure out if it's just me.

It's weird - it's not a buffering issue. It seems to only be most noticeable on Gerald Owens' voice. I don't get it on Debra Morgan or Linda Loveland. Lol.

I dunno.

Well, try this app (to watch WRAL) to see if it is a Spectrum app issue:

I don't see WRAL on there - WNCN only.

Maybe Owens is like some years back when former Entertainment Tonight host Mary Hart's voice would trigger a medical condition in some poor woman.

Seriously though, Owens is a textbook baritone so maybe check the tone control or EQ on your set. Hope you get it sorted out...

Oh wow. I totally never knew this was real! I just thought it was a joke they came up with for Seinfeld.

If you bought Roku at Costco, take it back and get a refund and buy the newest generation.
Works for me.

Try this stream on your phone/PC.

Due to abuses, Costco changed their return policy on electronics. You only have 90 days to return.
