    Very nice vid, Richard! Two unanswered questions for me:
    1. Is there a way to set preferences to automatically watch credits? (rather than go to the next episode or the next random thing "they" want me to watch) We rarely are fast enough to stop the next episode or next whatever they are shoving at us.
    2. Can a preference be set to watch one episode (or one movie) at a time? Often the next day we turn on our program and several episodes have played despite us turning it off with the Roku control.

    Wow, glad I watched this, this will really help while testing. I'm trying to setup a Roku for my father and he's in a place with cinderblock walls and horrific WiFi quality. Even when I raise the Roku USB antenna up to 7 feet I only get 1 bar, and that's not even good enough to establish a connection most of the time. This will help a lot to see if I can find a sweet spot. I'm going to try to find or make a DIY dish to improve the signal as well. My phone can use the WiFi there at about 8Mbit if I hold it straight up in the air so it should be possible to get a Roku working too. Any help trying to do that would be super cool but I realize that a more complicated matter.

    • @richardlloydusa

      @@richardlloydusa Unfortunately we don't have access to the router. I'm going to get a 28cm diameter steel domed food tray lid and then put the Roku 3800X USB antenna segment inside it like the receiver of a satellite dish. I'm just confused how far I need to place the antenna from the lid. I know that 2.4Ghz has a 125mm wavelength so I figure it'll be a function of that? Maybe half that distance or the full distance? Or maybe I need to place the antenna long ways? Anyhow your tip here will hopefully let me play around with it to figure it out.

    Richard, you've done some great videos here on the secret screens and speed test channels. Do you know of a way to get the Roku to report its WiFi link speed (e.g. 72Mbps, 144 MBps, 300 Mbps)? I assume it's a 2x2 (N600) radio but haven't found any documentation to back it up.

    • @jonathanbittner7828
      @jonathanbittner7828 Před 9 lety +1

      OK, I poked around a little bit more and the screens display a Modulation type, e.g. MCS-15 which equates to 2x2 MIMO but doesn't say whether a 20MHz or 40MHz channel width is allowed.

      Try placing your router next to the tv within a few feet just to test if it is a wifi radio signal issue. When the router is that close to the TV it should see the network. If it does not I suggest calling Sharp support and see what they can do for you. Thanks.

    I have 1GB Internet. The Roku is connected via cat 6 cable to the AT&T modem/router. I screen mirror to it from my Note Pro 12 tablet, but I noticed that my WiFi speed decreases tremendously to my tablet. I never had this problem before even with the 50mb Internet with Comcast. Could it be a setting in the modem to have it divide bandwidth evenly instead of the Roku using it all just to mirror my tablet screen?

      That sound weird especially as it did not do it before. I would have to say it's some sort of problem with the new modem/router from Comcast. I did away with my Time Warner hardware and the monthly rental fee by buying my own modem and using my own router. Here is a video on all that czcams.com/video/UVbywFbSBpo/video.html In the end I get everything they were giving me, full control of all my hardware (everything works great as it should) and I save money.

      I have an older 3500R streaming stick and it has a search function so I can't why your should not. Do a system update menu item System>System update> Check Now and do the update if there is one. If not do a factory reset menu item System> Advanced system settings> Factory reset but understand this will bring the unit back to the day you took it out of the box and you will have reconfigure it again from scratch like the day you took it out of the box. Thanks.

    Over the past week my Netflix has been having problems where, for many shows/movies, it buffers up to 25% then fails. Some shows work without problems. I'm clueless as to whats going on and if it might be some kind of connection issue. If I select a movie that plays, no matter how many times I exit and reload it will play. For the titles that buffering and failing, no matter how many times I even reboot my Roku TV, they still buffer to 25% and fail. Do you happen to have any idea about this?

    • @richardlloydusa
      @richardlloydusa  Před 7 lety +2

      It may be a network issue. Next time it happens try rebooting your router. If that does not solve it reboot your modem and see if either is causing the issue. Thanks.

    Do I understand correctly I do not need a extra antenna for local stations? I got the sling TV trial &was told I have locals and after Chat was told no I need blue and orange! That's 45.00 I may as well keep my direct TV at 50.00 I know ATT taxes are high but sling didn't say if tax's are included! If I use tablet connect to Chromecast I got locals and on demand don't know if it's from the channel it self but I watched a show on NBC that was halfway over, it also could be because I've got ATT tablet and Comcast internet that system doesn't recognize me don't know but let me know if I still need a antenna!Vizio TV doesn't have a tuner so I got a converter box I just need to figure out what goes where DVD CD player and new DVD because Bose door is broken and only 2 HDMI ports

    • @richardlloydusa
      @richardlloydusa  Před 6 lety +1

      Your local channels should be available to you Over The Air (OTA). If your TV has coaxial tuner port you can attach an antenna and get your local channels for free. Here is a video on how to do that with just a paper clip: czcams.com/video/LHtiPDgOR3k/video.html though this is a very basic antenna you can buy a decent antenna for under $30. Here is an example on Amazon: amzn.to/2fIMVdc or Ebay: goo.gl/T3vaXK The tuner you have should plug into one of your HDMI ports if you do not have enough HDMI ports you can buy an HDMI port switcher at Amazon: amzn.to/2yyy7FO with remote or here at Ebay: goo.gl/EQ7Yvz I recommend a remote on the HDMI switcher. Thanks.

    Hi .. Does your channel ever change? Sometimes mine is 7 and sometimes its 11 I have called Roku and asked them about it. And they said it was because they change it when there is a better signal???? But what they have done is changed it from 11 where the roku was working great.. down to 7 and now the roku is not working very well.. I have argued with them about this.. and they still think the signal they choose is better.. But what if you have a lot of trees around you? Wouldn't that hinder the signal? I live in the State of Washington and there are at least 29 pine trees in the courtyard where I live and tons everywhere else.. I am hoping that after I move to Florida I won't have this problem..

    • @richardlloydusa

    And dont use channel 3. The only 3 channels that provide no overlap are 1, 6, and 11. This prevents neighboring wifi from crosstalking. Baby monitors and cordless phones also operate on 2.4ghz frequency and will kill performance when used. Otherwise awesome find.
