Can I add a Roku device to my LG Smart TV?
We have an LG 'smart' TV but have been very disappointed with its limitations. I have a Roku on a different (dumb) TV and have been pleased with how it works, so am considering adding a Roku device ...
- Yes. It would just connect to an HDMI input much like a Blu-ray player or cable box.
- No. The Roku remote can only control the power and volume/mute of the TV. You'll need the LG remote to switch away from the Roku's input and to control other features of the TV.
- No. Any "blank" buttons shown on Roku advertising are just place holders. Your remote will come with four buttons you may not want and may never use and you won't know what you'll get until you open the box. The Voice Remote Pro comes with buttons labeled '1' and '2' that can be programmed to launch any channel/app. It comes with some models or can be purchased separately.
