Roku question - preprinted channel buttons on remote

15. That's exactly the ones I bought.

The stick was just a little bit more, but a lengthy thread on the Roku forum discussing earlier issues with its receiver unit left me wary. I didn’t feel like being a crash test dummy or making my brother and his wife crash test dummies.

I haven’t pulled mine out of the box. One TV is in a room that’s a bit on the chilly side. I took its Roku, an old Roku 3, and plugged it into the set I have on at this minute. It’s in a much warmer room.

My brother has been exploring streaming TV for the last week. I suspect it won’t be long before he drops cable.

There’s a Best Buy near where he lives, so if his unit malfunctions, he can swap it for a replacement unit quickly.

I am watching trains in Fostoria, Ohio, on the Railstream app.

I am controlling the Roku 3 with the app on my iPhone. The app has the keyboard feature that the remote lacks. I suspect Roku won’t support the Roku 3 for much longer.
