twit.tv has live and replay shows on their channel

Factory renewed Tivo Premieres are marked down and on sale at tivo's site right now for $99. ip limiting is easy to get around with various free proxy services around the globe.

Great shows everyone... Many I have already seen in the original runs. But others certainly to add to the list. The Shield sticking out for me.

With Justified seasons 1-3 now available on Amazon Prime, I wonder what other shows folks have been catching up on. Personally, running through the FX series that are available. Going to be wrapping up Rescue Me shortly. Wrapped up the West Wing a while back. I also threw on Farscape, and The...

I'm not sure what all you get with Playon, but I know with the Plex channel, you can stream videos from youtube, vimeo, and various sites. There is also a hulu plug in for plex. And I have't paid a dollar for it, though there are more benefits if you subscribe.

Nowhere TV is a private channel and doesn't show up in the Roku guide. To add the channel, go to this site: http://www.thenowhereman.com/roku/ Find the sentence "Nowhere TV is a Roku "private" channel, which means it does not appear in the Roku Channel Store. To install Nowhere TV on your...

Roku has limits to the media formats it supports naively. The Plex channel knows what these formats are and will request the plex server to transcode the video on the fly to the best format supported on the Roku. The quality of the image you see depends on the native resolution of your...

PLEX media server has been able to transcode many formats from my laptop to the Plex channel on my Roku. It's free, so you could give that a try and see.

Added the plex media server yesterday when I found I wanted to watch some stuff I had on my pc on the big screen. It worked pretty well. MKV HD videos to the Roku worked, the Plex media server did have the dual core cpu pegged for a while (multithreaded - nice). Didn't see any pauses...

sounds about right. most streaming I saw would need at least 6Mbps.

yes, unfortunately with today's devices, the good old pull the plug, count to 5, and plug it back in routine is all to common. Many of these devices are running some sort of internal operating system that has memory management, device drivers, and any number of opportunities for something to go...

I've been doing a lot of Amazon streaming with the Roku 2 XD and had an weird behavior recently. I was watching an episode of Lost which was in HD, had the 4 bars and the HD logo. Then that one finished and I went to pick a new episode... This one loaded, but only showed one dot. I hit pause...

I wish I had one of those so I could figure out what is going on. My guess is the issue is related to other settings with such a router, but they change when you change what you mentioned. Wifi is pretty basic in general. It should just work.

Been living with my Amazon Prime account so far. HD streaming has been pretty good. Finished off 4 seasons of Sons of Anarchy (paid for season 4), can't wait for it to start up season 5. Started up Lost. Have Damages in queue, as well as Rescue Me.

Agree.... it's only an app for viewing image or video content. No text. And no, haven't had that issue.

Currently there are 5,045 Movies and TV that are eligible for Amazon Prime members to get as part of membership (along with free 2 day shipping..etc..). For example, seasons 1 through 4 of Sons of Anarchy are available. Below you can see a screen shot of all the TV networks that have stuff...

Been going through Sons of Anarchy on Amazon Streaming. all of season 1 is there and they seem to have a bunch of fx stuff for prime people. Perfect since the great shows I've heard about on Fx were to be those I try to catch some day.

There are ways to get standard Hulu onto your roku, most require a type of media server transcoding (converting it from the Hulu format to the Roku compatible format) things on a mac or pc that is on your network.

I took a few minutes at lunch today and did some monitoring of bandwidth usage for the the Roku on various channels. Now I had previously checked performance when dish started up their online streaming through their receiver boxes. When doing that I saw maxes of around 8.5Mbps for some things...

There are various lists for Roku and PlayOn showing private channels. Of course some are actually private, and others are pay services. the first interesting one I found was the Nowhere TV channel. Covers all sorts of stuff. just google Roku private channels and you find all sorts of...

With many new Roku owners about to show up thanks (or no thanks) to Dish dropping AMC, and opening their pocketbooks to retain customers. But guess what, the Roku is more than just a portal to Amazon Streaming. From some digging around I've been doing it actually is kinda cool. In fact you...
