DLNA

So I guess I should be selling my little Roku box on ebay. I bought it with the expectation that it would eventually include DLNA compatible browsing of my local media. From what I am reading, there is little chance of that happening in 2011. I understand there might not be transcoding, but I was not expecting that.

I guess I should not have been cheap and just bought another PS3 🙂

What a dissapointment. I am happy with everything else Roku does, but not streaming local media is a deal breaker.

Thanks for the memories Roku!

Yes, sell it and move on. The Roku streaming
media player is not the end all, "One box to
rule them all". But no other box has earned
that title either.

Never buy a product for future features unless
those features are clearly advertised and the
company has a good reputation of following
through. Roku has a good reputation of
following through with advertised new features.
And Roku has never advertised DLNA support
for their streaming media player.

Caveat Emptor, (let the buyer beware).
