Roku Developer Program

[shibuchakson]

I recently relocated to UK from USA and brought my Roku 2 xs with me to UK. I can get Netflix and most other channels with out any issue. But unfortunately I can't get bbc I player on my RoKu. I tried to log into my account and add the channel, but no luck.

Could some one please advise whether it is a software issue or not? Is there any fix for as I am desperate to get the I player.

Many thanks in advance.

BBC Player is only allowed in the UK.

There are regional differences in the software. US boxes won't load UK only channels.
Your easiest fix is to buy a UK box.

Yeah, I read your post backwards. The Firmware on your US roku boxes should only load US channels. You need UK roku firmware to load UK channels in the UK.

I too am interested in downloading the BBC iPlayer. Can you download the UK firmware to your device so that it becomes a UK device?

Just factory reset your device, create a new Roku account from your computer in the UK and link your device to the UK account.
