The Roku streaming player is a device that allows you to stream content from various channels on your TV. It requires an internet connection and a Roku account to access the Roku Channel Store and manage subscriptions. The device comes with a power adaptor, remote control, USB power extender cable, and a USB power cable with a long-range wireless receiver.

Product Usage Instructions

Connect the Roku streaming player to your TV using an HDMI cable. If you have a 4K or HDR TV, make sure to use an HDMI port that supports HDCP 2.2. For assistance in determining the compatible port, visit go.roku.com/hdcp. If the HDMI cable doesn’t fit, you can order a free HDMI extender cable at my.roku.com/HDMI.
Step 2: Connect to Power
For the best streaming experience, use the included USB power cable, power extender cable, and power adaptor to connect the Roku streaming player to a wall outlet. Alternatively, you can connect the included USB power cable to the USB port on your TV. If you see a red light on your streaming player, it indicates that the USB port on your TV doesn’t provide enough power. In such cases, use the included power adaptor. For assistance, visit go.roku.com/lowpower.
Step 3: Power on TV and Select Input
Use your TV remote to power on your TV and select the input you used to connect the Roku streaming player. For guidance on selecting the correct input, visit go.roku.com/selectinput.

Common questions

Why do I need to create a Roku account?
Before you can start streaming, channels must be downloaded and installed on your streaming player. You’ll need a Roku account to access the Roku Channel Store, manage your subscriptions, view your purchase history, and add a payment method. For more info, visit go.roku.com/whyaccount
Why do I need to enter a credit card?
Saving a payment method makes it easy to rent or buy movies on demand, subscribe to popular services, and enroll in free trials. Charges will not be made without your authorization. For more information, visit go.roku.com/paymenthelp
What should I do if my streaming player is not connecting to my wireless network?
Your streaming player connects to your wireless network the same as your laptop or smartphone. If these other devices can access the internet, then your streaming player should be able to do the same. Make sure to select the same network name, and enter the same password you use with the other devices. Remember that passwords are case-sensitive and easy to enter incorrectly. For more help, visit go.roku.com/wireless
Can I take my Roku streaming player with me when I travel?
Yes. You can bring your streaming player and watch your favorite entertainment when you travel. Remember to also bring a USB power adaptor (like your phone charger), remote, and any cables you use to connect your streaming player at home. Make sure your destination has a good internet connection. You may need a computer or smartphone to help connect your streaming player to a new wireless network.
