Playing content from local network media servers
Only in connected mode
, your TV 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.
Using your TV in a hotel or dorm room
Hotels, school dorms, conference facilities, and similar locations with public wireless Internet access
often require you to interact with a web page to authenticate your access. These types or networks are
called
restricted public networks
. When you select a network of this type, the TV automatically detects
that additional information is needed and prompts you through using another wireless device to supply
the requested information.
About using your TV on a restricted public network
Here are some points to keep in mind when using your TV on a restricted public network:
•
Using your TCL Roku TV on a hotel or dorm room network requires wireless availability and a
network-connected smartphone, tablet, or computer to authenticate access to your wireless
access point.
•
You will need your TCL Roku TV remote.
•
Some content might be limited or unavailable if you try to connect outside your home country
due to geo-filtering.
