Issues with ABC (KTRK) Houston dropping in and out

I’ve noticed recently (and currently) that KTRK on both SD and HD channels has sound drop and picture scramble intermittently. This issue occurs across all 3 of the boxes in my home, all wireless/run through my Xfinity network. This leads me to believe it’s an issue with the channel and the feed to Xfinity but I have not heard of others experiencing this issue in the area. All troubleshooting so far has led to no resolution - all other channels work fine as well.

user_3wtuy0 Thanks for posting on our community forums to let us know about the ABC channel issue you have been experiencing. I'm sorry to hear it is happening across all of your TV Boxes. To confirm, have you tried rebooting the modem and boxes manually or through the Xfinity App? Since you're using wireless boxes, refreshing the network and boxes at the same time might help correct the issue.

@XfinityDilary​ I have rebooted the boxes and the modem and the issue persists. The issue is also getting worse, it was prevalent in evenings and now occurs through the day - again this only affects one channel, ABC, for me. Is it possible this is an issue with the network signal to Xfinity? Something before service to my address? If my cable feed comes through the internet/modem, I don’t understand how resetting my box would solve the issue.

I am having the same issue. Went through troubleshooting and even though it doesn’t solve the problem, it just ends with no other help. Not even an offer for service or anything. It just states that all is well on their end so I guess I’m just SOL? Please help!

Thank you for reaching out to us @user_u9sgnm! Have you noticed if these picture issues on this channel happen during commercial breaks too?

Same problem. Screen either locks up with sound continuing, or screen goes blank with spinning wheel with or without volume.
