Ah so you can just cast whatever is on VLC? That was the first thing I tried with Roku but my TV doesn't support it, and I was disappointed there wasn't any VLC

- Mindwipe 7y agoWell, VLC does have casting, but here I more meant you can run VLC on the TV itself, and you can enter a URL directly into VLC on the TV itself. While that's a bit clunky, if you use the remote app on a phone you can enter keyboard data and, most importantly, paste keyboard data from your phone into an input field on the TV itself. So no casting would be required. Kodi would also enable the same use case.
- anderspitman 7y agoWait does Roku have a VLC app? I swear I checked for one.
- Mindwipe 7y agoNo, I mean for Android TV in all cases above. I don't think this is a use case on Roku. Roku has zero international market share, so I don't think there's much of a developer market for it.
