How can I view my MP4 iles on my old ROKU thing?
« on: September 01, 2019, 12:21:46 PM »
I have an older model ROKU dongle with HDMI for my older TV set. Works just fine for Netflix. And Amazon and other stuff.
But I have  some movies from another source that I have legally downloaded and want to view them on the TV using my ROKU.c They are all MP4 videos.

I tried to Google this and the explanation i got really was hard to understand,  the text was longer than Rip Van Winkle's beard.

Has anybody here done this? Is there a simple easy way to do it?  :)

It just says that if your Roku has a USB port, put your MP4s on a pendrive/memory stick and insert it into the port. The Roku device needs Roku Media Player to be installed.
