britbox captions black out after about 40 minutes

I recently had my set top box replaced. Since that was done, I've noticed when I watch a show on Britbox (through the Xfinity Apps menu) the closed captions blacken out after about 40 minutes.  This did not happen with the previous box. If I leave Britbox and return to watch the rest of the show, the captions come back on. I can't find anything in the community forum on this. The troubleshooting tips for box malfunction have been done repeatedly and they don't affect this problem.

Hello, @Jeffrey_T how are you? Hopefully your Sunday is going well. Are you able to share the make and model number of your box? We want to check if this is happening while using an X1 box , Xumo box or Xfinity flex box. It's never a bad idea to reset the box and make sure it has been updated from Settings.
