YouTube on Roku is now showing me ads when I pause videos.

@owncast @mxks And hey...this is Kit, the person behind @mxks and the Owncast Newsletter! I'd love to have some friends along for the ride developing the #Owncast #Roku channel! DM me or email me if you're interested in helping!

For those who own a Roku, it's time to change that.🤦♂️

Idk how they think this is a good business move...

#DataPrivacy #Ads #Roku

#Roku has patented a way to show #ads over anything you plug into your TV - https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024/04/hdmi-customized-ad-insertion-patent-would-show-rokus-ads-atop-non-roku-video/ "System would detect paused content on external devices and show ads on top."

THIS WILL NOT BE IN THE UPCOMING 2.0 RELEASE!

I'm continuing to work on expanding the new #Jellyfin on #Roku OSD.

Today I started working on the foundations of skipping back and forth through playlists - which includes tv seasons.

@teamtuck will be excited 🤘

All open PRs designated for #Jellyfin on #Roku 2.0 have been merged.

#DisneyPlus is supposed to be the best way to watch certain content, but it’s really not, especially if you use a variety of devices.

An example is, I’m watching #Daredevil for the first time ahead of #Echo S01. So far I’ve watched it across three different devices: a modern #RokuPremeire on a #4K #TV, an older #Roku on a 1080p #TV, and my main #Windows10 computer.

This show is supposed to be in #4K, with #HDR and #DolbyVision, yet it only appears in full quality on the #4K #TV. Even on my PC I’m getting this dishearteningly grainy and compressed image.

Unfortunately neither #Netflix nor #Disney made #4K #BluRay discs for any of the seasons, but I’m starting to think that a #BluRay would be a better way to watch this show than #DisneyPlus, despite the fact that it technically has the show in #4K.

The #Boxee remote had a full querty keyboard on the back years ago. I don't get why all remotes don't have this, especially #Roku. Searching still sucks on televisions.
