SO16_Saint Posted 5 November, 2013 Share Posted 5 November, 2013 Has anyone had any experience using a Roku? Looking at getting one as a media device for my 'dumb tv' as it still works fine and can't justify buying a new one.

Pugwash Posted 5 November, 2013 Share Posted 5 November, 2013 You might want to take a look at a WDTV Live. Streams all the usual and seems a bit more flexible playing your own media files, either from USB or network storage. I've got one of the older models that has been rock-steady and has played virtually any file format I could throw at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have just read up on these on their website, and haven't got the first clue what they're going on about or where to start. That usb/HDMI cable will do for me....much more simpler to use Sent from my GT-N5110 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
