Playing content from USB storage devices
Your TV has a USB port that can be used to play personal music, video, and photo files from a personal USB flash drive or
hard disk. If your TV is connected to the Internet, your
Home
screen has the
Roku Media Player
tile. If your TV has not
been connected to the Internet, the
Home
screen has the
USB Media Player
tile.
To use this feature, first make sure your media files are compatible with the Roku/USB Media Player. As of the
publication date of this guide, the following media file formats are supported:
• Video—MKV (H.264/262), MP4, MOV (H.264)
• Music—AAC, MP3, WMA, WAV (PCM), AIFF, FLAC, and AC3, and DTS
• Photo—JPG, PNG (up to 4k x 4k pixels)
To see the latest list of supported formats, view

in the Media Player.
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.
Notes
• The Roku/USB Media Player displays supported file types only, and hides file
types it knows it cannot play.
• There are many variants of each of these media formats. Some variants may not
play at all or may have issues or inconsistencies during playback.
• DTS audio, whether in music or video files, is supported only by pass-through,
meaning that your TV cannot directly output the sound of a DTS file, but can pass
it through to a DTS-compatible receiver that is connected to the
HDMI1 (ARC)
or
OPTICAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUT
connector on your TV.
