Re: What's the maximum video quality for The Roku Channel?

How do I adjust the quality of a video on The Roku Channel? I am trying to watch Babylon 5 on my laptop and all I see is the settings for subtitles which does not allow you to change the quality of the video.

Thank you

I don't see "video Quality" adjustments on anything. You get what you get. Roku channel is free after all.

Re: What's the maximum video quality for The Roku Channel?

Since this is the remastered version of Babylon 5 which was first released on HBO Max, I was hoping there is a way to know the quality the videos are in unless it is on auto, which I hope goes with the highest quality available for it. Do you know if that is the case?

Thank you

What about the Playback Quality on the iphone Roku app? It has Low, Medium and High. Do you know whether High is for 720p or 1080p?

I noticed today Roku is displaying 1080i as the resolution of it's channels. This is new on my TV's. It's in the info box as you change channels or click on on the remote to see information about what you are watching. It use to not display any type resolution.
