Playing content from local network media servers
If you have connected your TV to a network, it can play personal video, music, and photo files from a media server on your
local network. Media servers include personal computers running media server software such as Plex or Windows Media
Player, network file storage systems that have built-in media server software, and other devices that implement the
specifications of the Digital Living Network Alliance. Some servers do not fully implement the DLNA specification but are
UPNP (Universal Plug and Play) compatible. The Roku Media Player will connect to them as well.
Some media servers can convert files into Roku compatible formats. DRM-protected content is not supported.
Using your TV in a hotel or dorm room
Hotels, school dorms, conference facilities, and similar locations with public wireless Internet access often require you to
interact with a web page to authenticate your access. These restricted public networks are commonly known as captive
portal networks. When you select a network of this type, the TV automatically detects that additional information is needed
and prompts you through using another wireless device to supply the requested information.
To connect your TV to the restricted network:
1 Either during Guided Setup or after selecting Settings > Network > Set up new wireless connection, you’re presented
with a list of available networks.
Tips
• Using your Roku TV on a hotel or dorm room network requires wireless
availability and use of your network-connected smartphone, tablet, or computer
to authenticate access to your account.
• Your TV must already be running software version 7.0. You can find the version
number by navigating from the Home screen to Settings > System > About. If it
is running an earlier software version, you must use a non-restricted wireless
network to link and activate the TV, and then update the software to version 7.2.
• Be sure to bring your Roku TV remote control, because the Remote feature of the
Roku mobile app may not work when connected to a hotel or dorm room
network.
• Content might be limited or unavailable if you try to connect outside your home
country due to geo-filtering.
