Looking for advice on finally ditching very expensive Direct TV with hundreds of channels I DON'T watch.
I was just about to comment that the worst part of my recent cable-cutting was losing live C-SPAN, but thanks to you I now have all three live C-SPAN stations in High-Definition! It also looks like I now have even more other channels than I ever did with cable. I have no idea how this works, but thank you very much!!
But you forgot to add “Gold Rush” to your list. Best Reality show on TV but definitely for guys.. That's about the only thing I watch except Fox News, NFL, Steph Curry and an occasional Sunday Talk Show.
And I do love my Roku. I have a 3 and a 4.
Set aside a few hours to explore *every* channel in 24/7, On-demand and Live TV. Movie channels are hidden - the main ones are currently awaiting relocation to a stronger server - you will be astonished how much programming there is.
I did a search, on my roku account, for XTV and xtviptv.....nothing turned up :(
I would LOVE to get at least C-Spam, on our Roku. We get OAN...but it (sadly) gets old, pretty quick, with their short repeat loop.
TIA.
Yeah I can’t even get it to start on XTV. No wonder there are so many low information voters out that. State sponsored propaganda is piped in smoothly and at no charge.
How did you get this channel on to your Roku account? Thanks.
go to the search channel and cut and paste in the code, then add, then refresh your roku in the settings—>system area
P.s do the search on your account on a computer logged into your roku acct not on the actual roku
I did that :(
Logged on to Roku acct and cut and pasted txhurl’s code, exactly. Nada.
Came up with strange channels like Creekbox...lol.
is kodi a media player? I seem to remember putting that on my raspi.
I have been able to stream media content from my Netgear Access Point which has a built in usb port for my little NAS.
The Roku recognizes my shared NAS device.
When fully cutting the cord, I will need to be able to stream fox news, FBN and sports out to the telly in the garage where my hubs is putting in insulation and finishing it off.
I am logged on, via laptop (not Roku) and got this, in search bar...
Your search did not return any channels.
XTV won’t turn up in public channel search, it’s private. Google rokuguide private channel - you HAVE registered your device’s serial #, of course - and when you get to the add private channel use XTVIPTV.
I’m surprised XTV is the only full-cable channel so far.
Ok WarDaddy.....
Jeremy and the lads sounds like a porno...
Exactly what are you into? LOL
Do you have to have the actual PS? Or can it belong to, say....a family member :) ?
this is what I cut and pasted in: xtviptv
But not in search box.
Go to my account—>add a channel
there you will see a field for channel access code
cut and paste in there and then add
I have a lot on my plate today as I just finished setting up my Yamaha RX-A3040 sounds system as well :P
Ok...I’ll give it a try. I am out of town, and not where my Roku is, right now. But, I think my account (via laptop) should have device s/n....right? Thanks!!
Bookmark
And do a system update and restart after you add it... when you get home.
Woo hoo...can't wait to check it out!! ☺
Got it...will also do a restart. Thanks much!
