ok i got my Roku Angry Birds Edition box, installed it and put on the Playon Channel on it....Remember i have the Icefilms Script installed into my playon...and it works Flawless!! 
i'm using a trial version of playon through my wii and xbox
the picture quality & interface = garbage
and it doesn't stream well = choppy
maybe because it's a trial
I have the same issue on my Roku...i too have the trial.
yea, im wondering if that changes when you pay
and, how does icefilms look streaming through it
Got a question for you all with the Revue and the Roku: Do these boxes do anything over what a pc hooked up to the TV would? I already have that and just wondered what the advantage is to these dedicated boxes (aside from space).
there must be a difference in quality with the paid version,
because my playon sux

nice. very nice.
You probably have a slow computer. If you're gonna use Playon you have to have a fast CPU on your Computer. Playon transcodes the video on the fly to the correct format. This takes a lot of CPU power. If your computer cant handle the load, I would imagine the software just downgrades the quality automatically make it work.
You need to go here and type your CPU. If you have anything below 2000 its probably gonna playback shitty.
Thanks!
What's the channel code?
so i bought the Roku 2 XS yesterday. i like the channels and dashboard better than on my WD Live TV but you mean to tell me I can't play movies on another PC using my network?? and then you only allow MP4 and MKV??
i'll keep this thing for 29 days and see if they update the firmware but this is pretty pathetic for a media server not to be able to do.

I'm returning mine, noticed HBO Go is not available for Comcast customers. Strike 1.
I downloaded some of the channels, it's all unorganized and very limited.
Strike 2.
The porn channel only has a handful of videos, doesn't allow you to search.
Strike 3!!

I read an article on Roku's site that Time Warner was going to allow HBO GO on roku ....Comcast could be next.
What channels were you looking for?
There is more than one porn channel...

1 HBO? Are you serious? You can steam everything on HBO for free. The point is not to pay for HBO in the first place.
2. Its up to like 600 channels now. Its gonna be a little cluttlered.
3. Porn on the TV is a deal breaker? CMON SON.
And last time I checked they had like 12 porn channels. How much porn do you need on demand on your TV?

Crackle has come a long way. I deleted it the first day cause the shit was wack. But I checked it out the other day and see they added a lot of original programming. They got Sanford and Son on there too.
Works with Android too

Exactly, but you can't add the HBOGo channel if your Cable Provider doesn't allow it. Mine doesn't, article below.

Damn right

You should have done your research before you took it back The original Roku plays MKV and other formats as well. The newly released Roku 2 only plays MP4 until there is a firmware upgrade.
The perfect set up is this. The Roku 2 LT for $49. 400+ free TV channels.
The Sony SMP-N100 media streamer $49. Streams all your media in any format upto 1080p.
For less than a hundred bucks you can cancel your cable the next day.
Sony out of the N-100.
This will do the job right?
So anyone can tell me if I can get HBO and STARS somehow, my lady ready to go on it if that is possible?
