Roku question - preprinted channel buttons on remote

[Attilatheblond]

3. Been streaming since WAY before it was cool. Have had 3 'smart' TVs & remotes

The Pre-Programed buttons don't allow for change. To get Netflix to show up, you'll need to add it to your onscreen menu. Find your HOME menu and show it on your TV screen. Go left to the list of options. There will be an option for Streaming channels or something along that line.

Click on that then the screen will change to what all is available. Scroll to Netflix and ADD CHANNEL. You will have to sign into NETFLIX on the TV or your other device, with the code NETFLIX with show on your TV.

Explore all the other 'channels' you can add.There are some good ones; some will require payment and others won't. The ones you add to your TV will show their ICONS when you go to HOME with your remote. You just scroll to the one you want to watch and there ya go. Seems weird and maybe cumbersome at first, but you'll get the hang of it quickly.

I have PANDORA on my home as we stream music here & I have the TV hooked up to my receiver which sends the audio to my good speakers. It is good to revisit what all channels are available regularly, as they change, with some being added, others disappearing. One can find channels the offer old shows free, and several that offer regular radio stations that stream, which is nice if you want to stay in touch with what's going on in places you used to live, have family, or follow local sports teams' broadcasts from where you lived or went to school.

Be patient with yourself. You'll get it and start being a Master Streamer in no time.
