    Roku was such an easy recommendation for a long time… Non-complex UI, long support for updates, not owned by google or amazon… Far cheaper than LG and Samsung… (Not that Samsung’s UI is anywhere near as easy as roku)

    But now I guess thats done. Unless an alternate firmware exists or this doesn’t hit older TVs I guess I’ll be looking for a new TV… Which is a shame because my current 4 year old roku TV is more than capable.

          If only there was a way to provide a video stream to the TV without the internet! We’d be saved!

          I’ve had my Roku disconnected from the Internet for a while now. I used to use an Amazon Fire stick, and currently use a Google chromecast
