Good idea but flawed implementation
on July 13, 2016
Posted by: laser128
I have a couple of Roku 3 boxes for streaming from HBO Go, Charter Spectrum, Plex and other providers. So when it came time to buy a TV for my office, I bought an Insignia with the Roku built in. The concept is great -- single remote with all the Roku channels in a familiar interface and support for other source devices like Apple TV, a Cable Box, Blu-Ray Player, etc.
Unfortunately the implementation is flawed. The Roku TV is running an earlier version of the Roku OS than the Roku 3 is running (7.0.2 versus 7.2.0). I didn't realize it was a problem until Charter updated their Spectrum app which worked on Roku 3 but would no longer load on the Roku TV. When NBC released it's subscription sports app (NBC Sports Gold) at the end of June, it worked great on Roku 3, but doesn't load on the Roku TV. I contacted Roku, Insignia, Charter and NBC but nobody took ownership of the problem and so I'm left with a Roku TV that isn't compatible with 2 very important streaming apps. My only option at this point is to buy another Roku 3 box and connect it to the Roku TV. Sounds like a Monty Python skit. So I would highly recommend not buying a Roku TV from Isnigia, Sharp or any other vendor.
My Best Buy number: 0063098310
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
