I was forced to go this route to get a Roku dongle to work through my receiver. I had actually bought an Amazon Fire Stick first and it had the same problem and returned it. Once the Roku failed in the same way I had to resort to the more drastic measures of going on Amazon and buying a $20 splitter. But now if I wanted to pirate something I could. It would be super easy too, since there's an open port I could plug the recorder right into.
