How to connect and play Wii on Roku TV

Hi there! I've been struggling to set up my wii (the original wii) to my Roku TV through an AV three color plug. I've tried everything I can think of but it will not allow me to change the tv input to the AV setting.

Thanks for the post.

Do you have an A/V tile on the Home screen to select? If there is no A/V tile on your Home screen, you can add it by going to Settings > TV inputs > AV > Set up input.

Please keep us posted.


Thanks,
Danny

Re: How to connect and play Wii on Roku TV

I have the 5121X TV. I am trying to connect a wii to it. I put the composite connection into the TV. Red in red plug, white in middle and yellow in the remaining plug. I go to settings, tv input, AV, I click on AV but I do not see the input on the Home Screen.

I went back to AV, hit remove, the confirm prompt comes up, on that page I can see the wii working (in a small screen) and I can control it from that screen, when I go back to Home Screen I see nothing for AV. Any suggestions?

Thanks

I got it connected. I unplugged the wii removed the AV connection in tv input, then added it again and then plugged the wii in. AV showed up on home screen.

Solution: Connected the Wii to power and the av cables to the TV. Did a factory reset. Followed the prompts to set up the TV and when it prompted for devices I clicked on Wii. It connected and showed up as Wii as a channel on the home screen. Yay! Only problem is that the picture is not crisp and aspect is not full screen.
