Roku tv's use a very old code set that is in most any universal remote, but thats the roku tv volume and power, the other roku commands are only in universal remotes that have codes geared for roku tv's. I like the One-For-All urc-7935 or urc-7880, you can find them cheap on ebay. And they have roku tv codes in them.
