You can do XBMC with minimal knowledge of technology. If you can read you can be successful. There is a neat little device called a RaspberryPi. It is a micro computer a bit bigger than a deck of cards. They boot off of an SD card and can be set up to boot off an sd card and use a thumb drive...

Once you set up KODI you then add various addons that provide the content you want to watch. There are several forums dedicated to KODI/XBMC: KODI, TVADDONS, TotalXBMC, OPENELEC.TV etc. I suggest you check out the forums and see if KODI is what you are looking for. It is Open Source so you...

You can buy a Raspberry Pi from eBay all set to plug in and run from $80.00. If you want to set it all up your self you might be able to get all the pieces parts a bit cheaper. There are a couple of different software builds Do your research and pick the one you like. I'm using Openelec...

The ones on eBay are sold as a plug and play set up, raspberyyPi, sd card preloaded with os and xbmc, case, hdmi cable, and in some cases a remote, or remote ready. RasperyPi it self is still about $35.00 from web site. Thanks for your post Sent via Tapatalk

So I have been looking at this little device. It appears that when configured with XBMC it would provide all,the streaming capability that a person might need, to include AirPlay. Complete set ups are available on eBay for $89.00 and up. Ross Sent via Tapatalk

I signed up for a life time subscription to play on a year or so ago. Have not been very impressed with the PQ or the number of channels that actually work. Ross Sent via Tapatalk

Depending on how you look at streaming, you can legally stream both TNT and TBS, live feeds from both east and west, as long as you have an account with certain pay TV services. Although I'm thinking what your comment really means is that any one can legally stream regardless of their already...

I would say its not worth it. Most of the content that works is available on the ROKU, most of the third party apps are horrible and don't work at all. I have been very disappointed, playon has not lived up to the hype. Ross Sent via Tapatalk

Now if there was a true version of airplay for roku I wouldn't be considering the purchase of an apple tv Sent via Tapatalk

True but the major reason folks cut the cord is the cost of pay TV and the lack of programming. MLB.TV costs about $130.00 a season, roughly $20.00 a month. Not bad, but I don't want to watch the Red Sox on delay. And he point of cutting the cord, for us, was economics as well as...

I was just checking which of the new shows are available on Hulu+. Figure i don't need to record if i can watch next day. One of the shows i watch is Last Resort. Only available on the web not on Hulu+, however Nashville which is also an ABC show is on Hulu+ as is Modern Family. I also watch...

Very interesting. I would be even more interested if I could watch on Roku...lets see how it plays out Ross Sent from my rooted DROIDX (Liberty Gingerbread) using SatelliteGuys

Haven't tried recently but back in December logging in from ROKU was a known issue. Logging in on line worked just fine. Ross Sent from my rooted DROIDX (Liberty Gingerbread) using SatelliteGuys

Just read the FAQ page and it does state premium is required for ROKU. now of I could trick MLB.com onto thinking my ip was in the midwest id be able to watch the red sox in real time. Just thinking out loud.... Ross Sent from my rooted DROIDX (Liberty Gingerbread) using SatelliteGuys

Have you checked out the private channels. I believe there is one that is designed to link to media files on your network and stream them. Ross Sent from my rooted DROIDX (Liberty Gingerbread) using SatelliteGuys

You can register an account with a us ip and u can link ROKU. Cant use service on a pc with us based ip.Have no idea why it works on ROKU. but it does. The subscription service is outrageous worse than any pay service. Ross Sent from my rooted DROIDX (Liberty Gingerbread) using SatelliteGuys

I wonder the same. Ustvnow is for expats. Wont work on a pc with a us based ip. Ross Sent from my rooted DROIDX (Liberty Gingerbread) using SatelliteGuys

I've found that somtimes things work and sometimes they don't. Found we had noise on our phone line that was causing enough variable with the dsl signal that my wife was having serious issues connecting to her emploers vpn. We couldn't stream at all while she was working. VZ came out replaced...

Agreed. Ross Sent from my rooted DROIDX (Liberty Gingerbread) using SatelliteGuys

IMHO Roku is not quite ready to 100% replace cable or satilite. There is no streaming local news and no 24 hour streaming national news. However if you have OTA it could easily eliminate the need for sat or cable...depending on your viewing habits/needs. There seems to be more than enough free...

I have not found a channel, yet, that doesn't work on the original roku. Filmon does not seem to be available anymore. I will be picking up a roku 2 soon. Like the expansion slot. Just waiting for a deal on the top model, the others do not have ethernet, I prefer to use that with primary tv...

Just got a Roku XD. I've been putting it through a workout. I am using ethernet over verizon dsl (basic 1mb service). I find it to work well, cirrently have it hooked up using the rca cable, tv only has one hdmi port. PQ is fine with the exception of the few livestreams. Those are fuzzy...
