Using the Roku Channel
Store
The
Streaming Channels
menu option takes you to the Roku Channel store, where you can add new
streaming channels to your Roku TV.
Tip
:
The
Streaming Channels
menu option is available only if your TV is connected to the
Internet.
Tip
:
You also can search for streaming channels by using the
Search
option, as explained in
“
Searching for movies & shows
” on page
45
.
To make it easier to find what you want, the streaming channels in the Roku Channel Store are
categorized by topic. Press
UP
and
DOWN
to highlight the category you want, and then press
RIGHT
to
move the highlight into the grid of streaming channel tiles.
When you find a streaming channel you want to add or learn more about, highlight it and press
OK
to
display more details.
•
If the streaming channel you are adding is free, you can select
Go to channel
to start watching it
immediately.
•
If there is a one-‐time or recurring fee associated with using the streaming channel, you must
agree to the terms and conditions, accept the fee, and—if you created one when you activated
your Roku TV, enter your Roku PIN code to authorize the charges.
•
If you already have a subscription to the streaming channel—for example, you already subscribe
to Netflix or you receive HBO through your cable TV provider—you must complete a different,
simple authorization step to add the streaming channel.
You only have to complete the authorization or activation step one time, when you initially add the
streaming channel. After that, you simply select the streaming channel tile from your
Home
screen to
start watching. (Channel availability is subject to change.)
Tip
:
New streaming channels are added continuously, so be sure to check back every now and
then.
