Joe De Beer Posted November 13, 2015 Posted November 13, 2015 If browsing on web, on the let you can filter search results to show "ship to South Africa". Don't see a Roku 4 but the Roku 3 $102,99 is there. Also 39 other offers of new Roku3 for $75 etc

Rocket-Boy Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 I should sign in and see what is available.So far moreflicks.com hasnt been updated to include any new zones. Naspers must have pooped a little when they saw that.
the nerd Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Works flawlessly... Watching origin 8 right now :-) Latent_Blue and Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 2

dev null Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 DStv must be panicking by now. They have been really crap this past year.
Slowbee Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 ok, so its time ... took an old office i3, upgraded it to windows 10. hooked it up to the DVD player, switched on the streaming feature in windows media player - and voila - I now have a media centre. The only pain is I cannot use the DVD player remote to fast forward to rewind - but I can use it to control which files to select on the PC. Only thing to figure out now is this netflix thingy. Oh yes and I will be asking for help with Kodi. Last thing - thanks for the thread guys. Great inspiration to step up and try something new. Like drag yourself into the 21st century.

Like drag yourself into the 21st century.I'm not sure what other options are out there that you could look at, but, personally, I have a media server in one room and a Roku running in the lounge over my wireless network which works like a charm and it has it's own remote. You get different model Roku's, but I have the entry level streaming stick. Costs a few hundred rand and does everything I need it to.
Slowbee Posted January 7, 2016 Posted January 7, 2016 Lurch, does the Roku then replace the DVD player ? So you go from the PC, to the Roku and then into the TV ? *have not done much research into the Roku and other such devices, was trying to get the streaming thing going with using what I had rather than spend money* Lexx 1
carbon29er Posted January 7, 2016 Posted January 7, 2016 Only issue I've found now that Netflix is herein SA is that the Netflix icon is not on my Samsung Smart TV but all the DSTV rubbish is there. Will it come from Samsung as an update? Lexx 1
