Worst Streaming Box I've Ever Used
on March 23, 2014
Posted by: Bluedog

Gender:Male
I've owned ever streaming box out there , Apple TV ,Boxee Box,Roku,WD Live,Xbox 360 , and Google TV . I can say without hesitation that this is the worst product I've ever used .I watch on a 120" JVC projector so ever flaw is seen easily .Flaw number 1 low frame rate ,video is super jerky I'd say it's about 15fps.Flaw number 2 ,no sound with the video.Flaw number 3 ,on the odd chance it would play at all it has the worst color saturation of any device I've seen . Apple TV with the use of Plex is by far the best box for video out there .I keep trying to find something better but this is not it

No Airplay

I was very disappointed to find out that Airplay is not available. I know it is proprietary, but I would have thought that there were some hacks out there. I would have been better off with a Raspberry Pi or an Apple TV for that matter.

Not sure what all of the excitement is about...

Gender:Male
We finally gave in about a month ago and bought our first Roku box. We decided to spring for the latest model on the market so we bought the Roku 3. I'm really not sure what all of the excitement is about. I have cable already and have no desire to pay any more additional monthly charges to add more channels or movies. Honestly, we haven't even turned on the device in the past 2 or 3 weeks. I could see how it maybe more beneficial to us if we didn't already have cable but for now, I feel like I wasted a hundred bucks.

Don't beleave the hype about the good movies. I can find far better on youtube.
Roku works well enough except the volume control which has not functioned from day one.
