Try these options first to fix many picture and sound issues with the DIRECTV App:

• Confirm your TV is compatible with the DIRECTV App.
• Close and reopen the DIRECTV App.
• Check your TV for software updates.
• Uninstall and then reinstall the DIRECTV App.
• Restart your TV.
• Make sure your TV is connected to your home network. On your TV, select Settings >, Network. Choose Network Status. You’ll see images of your TV, router, and internet as they connect in that order. Look for 3 dots between the images to show you’re connected to confirm connection. See an X? You’ve lost your connection.
