Spanish commercials

My commercials for direct tv playback are in Spanish most of the time. Why is this happening? We don’t speak Spanish and never switched it. Sometime they are in English but most of the time they are in Spanish. Can we fix this?

Some channels send Spanish language commercials along with English commercials,  DTV has no control over what a channel sends them.

It's getting worse with time - almost every commercial break has Spanish-language ads. These ads should on the Spanish-language channels. It's very annoying

I understand that Spanish is such a huge language in the country which is why they do this. However, I would like it if the new co-owner programmed in an option to lock to either language, or perhaps even have a 3rd option where you accept both (in case you have a mixed household that doesn't all have strong grasp on the same language).

But nothing has indicated (yet) of this changing since over a year ago (Aug 2021) when this was discussed.
