"Live TV" sync channels across devices

Could we get the ability to sync the "Live TV" channels across devices? The hidden channels, the favorites channels, etc.

There are so many channels to go through (hundreds) to hide and favorite that I don't want to have to do it on multiple devices.

By the way, could we get a alternate UI to do this? Maybe a web UI or Roku app UI where I could check boxes quickly.

Thanks

    TOTALLY SYNC ACROSS DEVICES WHEN YOU SIGN IN WITH SAME EMAIL AND PASSWORD.

     

    REAL PAIN GETTING A NEW DEVICE.

        What the previous user mean is that if you go through the trouble of manually filtering/hiding hundreds of live channels on one Roku, then sync that filtering/hiding as well when setting up a new roku using the same account as the first Roku.

        In other words, don't just sync the channels that are on the main screen, sync also the live channels.

  • Agreed.

    I've got (3) setups here myself.

    I wish I had the ability to automatically sync each & every thing.

    Not having an option for this is quite mind boggling.

      Hi Rokooster,

      We saw your post, and welcome to the Roku Community!

      We're here to assist you regarding your concern and would like to know more about how we can help. Could you please tell us more about your issue with the Live TV sync? What device are you using right now? (e.g., Roku Express, Roku Streambar, Roku TV) Is your TV currently powered on and connected to a wall outlet?

      All the best,

        For the record I am using TV's with Roku built in at the moment.

        It's doubtful that a standalone stick vs a Roku TV makes any difference here.

        "Is your TV currently powered on and connected to a wall outlet?"

        Wow ..... you guys make units that require no power whatsoever ?.

        Man I gotta pay better attention to the latest tech trends.
