very early in this thread someone posted a link to this http://www.ambery.com/pcvgtohdcovi.html does anyone know if this will in fact work to fix the issue for 1080i tvs? or what about the xbox? the xbox works fine on 1080i? if so, I could just buy a xbox for that tv, and then move the roku box to ...

I'm sorry for any confusion. I meant to say the 'how do I find the latest offerings of free movies from Netflix (using their Roku player) Again, thank you for any and all guidance to any sites where I can find Netflix's latest free movies. Sincerely, Brentski The simple answer is, you can't. You ca...

Sweet! so this means I can watch HD in 1080i now right?

It would compete with their soundbridge and I doubt they will want to take money away from that. SoundBridge has pretty much been cut loose as a product line: http://forums.rokulabs.com/viewtopic.php?p=121882#121882 If adding music channels would make the DVP a better value proposition to consumers...

I seriously doubt you will ever see that from them. It would compete with their soundbridge and I doubt they will want to take money away from that. Im not saying it isn't possible, with the sdk kit, someone might come up with a way to do it, but I highly doubt that roku would.

That is correct. If your watching your roku and try to watch something on the pc, it wont let you, and vice versa with only 1 at a time. 2 dvd's get you 2 watch instantly at a time and the more you up, the more you can watch at the same time (I have the 2 dvd plan and can watch one on the pc and one...

From netflix website Members on Netflix unlimited plans may have up to 6 unique devices or computers activated on an account at any one time. As it says, you can have up to 6 total, including pc's. The number of them that can be watched at the same time is dependent on how many discs your plan is ge...

I have both Linksys and 2wire routers (in different locations) and both become unreliable at 35-40 feet. My Iphone also "sees" routers fro far distances but will never actually connect. I think what happens depends on multiple factors. If you routers become unreliable at 35 to 40 feet, so...

It can not guarantee that it wont rebuffer, but forcing a particular stream will make it try to rebuffer at the same speed.

Just as an fyi, you posted this in the general roku forums. There is a specific forum for the roku netflix box called roku digital media player general discussion.

Ya know what, While I may be really ticked off about the whole 1080i situation, You devs are top notch when it comes to getting things taken care of for folks when customer service just cant get things done. I give you guys major kudos for that! Now, I think I am going to have to call customer servi...

I had to reactivate my Xbox on it last week to. Oh on a side note. I have vonage for my phone. Working with time warner on a problem, while talking to them, they rebooted my modem. When it came back up, I was still on the call. Go figure that one out lol.

Maybe this can help. A wireless router still has wired connections on it also. You can keep your desktop connected via a wired connection and the rest of the wireless items you want can be connected via wireless as long as they are wireless devices. Below is a diagram that may help in understanding ...

The ones that want 1080i would need the Roku to upconvert to 1080i, then they could watch the 720p stuff at 1080i. I don't know if the player has the capability to upconvert though. yes we have not been told if it would upconvert. however, it doesnt even have to do that. I can watch movies on my dv...

At that cost, you might as well buy a Blu-Ray player with the Netflix/Amazon functionality built-in. I love my Roku Player, but if you want HD and you have a 1080i-only TV, there are far to many other options to jump through hoops like this to get HD. Are there 1080i streams available from Netflix ...
