    I do not see a match for Cox in the channel store.  If someone at Cox told you there was an app, you may need to ask them for the URL.  I tried searching for roku at cox.com but couldn’t find that either.  It appears Cox has their own streaming gizmo called “Contour Stream Player”.  They probably want you to use that instead.

      Please roku, quit acting dumb. Simple question.........how do we stream using our paid for, high dollar cox account to our non-wired roku tv.  It's just like on a tablet using the cox app?  I love watching golf in my garage and don't have a cable outlet. Very simple question.

        I continue to see nothing labeled Cox in the Roku channel store, though many matches come up for Golf.  I searched the Cox site and found a Cox app for IOS and Android, but I see no mention of one for Roku. They also mention being able to watch directly in a browser, so maybe using a laptop would be a good garage solution. Even really old laptops can stream video.  You could also try casting.

        You could also ask Cox how to use their high dollar service.  Presumably you can get a question answered for those high dollars.

      I have cox contour app on my iPad and I can access all my cable channels. This app is not available in my Roku tv. I asked cox at store. They confirmed that it is not available they sell a streaming device of this. 

      At another home we have spectrum cable. Their app IS available on roku store. It works great on tvs that have no spectrum box. 

      Outside of spectrum area it Works! But only cable channels no local TV. 

      Asked cox why they don't offer this. They said we r working on it.
