Simple to connect and facility fantastic.,
Was looking for a wireless streaming player for my Netflix and Amazon Instant Video accounts. This is for the bedroom on my 37″ 720p LCD, so I didn’t need to spend the extra $$ on the Roku 1080p capable players. In reality, you aren’t likely going to get right 1080p video from these streaming players anyway. At any rate, this Roku HD player seemed to fill my need and it certainly does. Simple to link to your existing streaming accounts and Buzz is a free channel with movies and TV episodes, although you do have commercials. Doesn’t come with a HDMI cable, but I had a spare on hand.
One note on the remote pictured, it’s not the one included. The remote that came with this player has the added, dedicated buttons for Netflix, Pandora and Buzz. Other than those additions it’s the same as what is pictured. Highly recommended for those who just want a streaming player for under $60, since this is all it does.

|Roku HD: Simple. It Just Facility!,
VIDEO:
The Roku HD is a fantastic small wireless-only player. Despite its name, the Roku HD does not support HD video at 1080p. It supports 720p.
The Roku HD is the replacement for the Roku LT per Roku. Now the Roku website as of this writing is listing both the Roku LT and the Roku HD, with both feature sets being identical. The Roku LT is sold out on Roku’s website. Update July 11 2012: It is now in stock again on Roku’s website as of this writing.
It supports 802.11n WiFi (b/g/n compatible). It has the subsequent video outputs, identical to the Roku LT: 480i over composite video, 480p over HDMI, and 720p over HDMI. Like the Roku LT, it will do the subsequent video modes: 720p HD, 16:9 anamorphic, and 4:3 standard. It will not do 1080p.
–An HDMI cable is not included, but the composite video cable is.
NO GAME MODE:
The Roku HD is not capable of playing Mad Birds, Pac Man, or similar games. The Roku HD does not contain bluetooth capability, which is necessary to play these games. The Roku players that are able to play Mad Birds/Pac Man as of this writing are Roku 2 XD and Roku 2 XS and the previous, older Roku 2 HD. Thus this Roku does not contain the Roku Game Remote. Current price for that remote is around $35. The Roku 2 XS (model theme to change via Roku’s website) comes with the Game Remote as of this writing, or you can hold it in a package with a Micro SD card or separately.
REMOTE:
I like the Roku HD’s simple remote — it is the one with the Netflix, Pandora and Buzz buttons, although it cannot go frame-by-frame in slow motion like a DVR remote. It is still a fantastic design. It is the same remote that I got with my Roku LT and the one supplied with the Roku 2 XD. Subtitles are available for Netflix on the Roku HD, if subtitles are available for that movie/show.
STREAMING:
Streaming is very quick with the wireless HD model.
WHAT’S IN THE BOX:
* Standard Roku infrared remote control
* 2 x AAA batteries
* A/V cable (mini-jack to left/right/composite video RCA)
* A/C Power adapter
* Getting Started guide
* 30-day money back guarantee
* 90-day hardware warranty
WHAT YOU WILL NEED:
* HDMI cable — if you choose to hook up your TV with HDMI to view in 720p instead of the included A/V cable
* Wireless router (N router is best since this Roku is N compatible)
* High speed internet connection — Roku recommends a 1.5 Mbps download speed for standard classification; live events like baseball need 3 Mbps; and just FYI, the Roku-recommended 5 Mbps HD download speed doesn’t apply to the Roku HD, according to a conversation I had with a Roku representative since the Roku HD player doesn’t do 1080p.
* Access to the internet to configure your Roku (to link the Roku player to your Roku account)
WHO SHOULD GET IT:
* If you have never had a Roku player before, this is a fantastic one to initiation with.
* If you have the Roku LT and like it, this one is for you. It is identical except in affect.
* If you have other Roku players and want to enlarge around the house, this is a excellent one. Low-priced, yet has a excellent feature set.
* If you have an area in your house everywhere you could use a wireless Roku, and you don’t need to pay extra for ethernet, this is a fantastic choice.
* If you do not want to play games on a Roku, this would be a excellent option.
SET-UP:
Set-up is simple and quick, although channel addition can be slightly clunky, in that the peacefulness you add the channels is the peacefulness in which they will show. As far as Roku content, Hulu Plus is offered, but Hulu is not. But, it is fantastic for access to Netflix and Amazon Instant Video, and here are several fantastic free movie channels to choose from like Buzz, although I want to see more free movie channels. Content is permanently expanding on the Roku.
PHONE SUPPORT:
Roku phone support only covers 90 days per their warranty. After 90 days you have email or chat support only. Tech support has been cheerful and pleasant but pockmarked. They do not permanently provide the right solution to the problem.
If you want additional phone support, you can get Roku Care Per-Incident or an Total Warranty which provides as of this writing an additional two years of phone support.
CONCLUSION:
The Roku HD is a fantastic value in the Roku line and I highly recommend it, as long as you don’t want to play games.
Another fantastic value, with an identical feature set if you are able to find it at a excellent price, is the Roku LT Streaming Player. Roku was selling them on their website at a cheaper…

|Roku HD is my new best friend!,
Ordered the Roku HD, have a nice standard classification tv that’s in fantastic shape, but only could get no matter what the Verizon gods deemed of value. Wanted to be able to stream videos from my Amazon Fill in account, and Hulu, on the tv rather than just my laptop.
Got the Roku in one day (thank you, Ontrac!). Set up was simple. Went online to complete setup, and was up and running in no time at all. Sound is fantastic, better than the fiber optic service I have. Picture quality is exceptional. Best $60 I have ever spent!
