Streaming Device

Q: I’m interested to stream Netflix, Hulu, etc on my TV. Which Streaming Device is the best for me?
A: Horay! Welcome to the streaming world. You can check the best streaming device here: http://www.digitaltrends.com/home-theater/best-tv-streaming-devices/

Q: Mmmm…I’m still unsure lah bro. Can you recommend the right device for me?
A: Ohh really? You are lazy to read right? :p Okay okay…we recommend Roku Premiere+ with Voice Search – What really helps Roku stand out, is its app selection. With the exception of Apple services such as iTunes, nearly every major streaming service is represented, along with hundreds of lesser-known apps for things like classic TV and Kung Fu movies. You can search with voice using the enhanced remote to make navigation simple. We like Roku Premiere+ so much that we have lost our social life after we purchased the device. Lols!

Q: I want to know what is the BEST all around streaming box to have, so many out there I just get confused.

A: Roku is the best all around streaming box. Many great answers here but to us one main reason. On the Roku all services are created equal. Amazon, Netflix, Google, Hulu, HBO, everything is all one click away (and you can move your most-used ones to the top of the screen). With FireTV only Amazon video is king, with Apple TV you can’t get hit channels like Sling TV and Amazon Prime. 
Q: Wow great! How do I Receive The Streaming Device After Payment Has Been Made?

A:  The device will be delivered and arrived to your shipping address within 8-9 working days upon payment. A shipping tracking number will also be provided to you.

Q: Can I COD?
A: We no longer accepting COD. Beginning 2016 we have started shipping out the device to your shipping address upon payment.

Q: How long does it take for the delivery? Is shipping an extra cost?
A:  Please allow 8-9 working days for the streaming device to arrive to your shipping address upon payment. Free shipping, boss! 🙂

Q: For the streaming device, do I need to pay once or I need to pay every month?
A: You only need to pay once.

Q: Is There Any Warranty For The Purchased Streaming Device?
A:Warranty is covered from the date of purchased for the following Streaming Device:

Roku: 3 months standard manufacturer warranty.

NVIDIA Shield 4K TV / Pro / K-1: 1 year limited warranty.

Amazon Fire TV / Amazon Fire TV stick : 1 year limited warranty.

Q: Do I need the step down transformer / power plug converter for the Streaming Device?

A: Not required. The Streaming Device works in Malaysia just fine.

Update: Roku 4 require adapter that needs to be purchased separately from the local electrical store. The voltage used in Malaysia is 230/240 volts -50hz. If your electrical appliance uses 110/120 volts, you need to use a transformer/converter to step down the 230/240 volts Malaysian voltage to your 110/120 volt appliances.

Roku

Q: How do Roku players work?

Roku players connect directly to your TV (with HDMI or composite cables), and to your home network to stream entertainment. You choose from a wide selection of streaming channels and put all your favorites in one place. There are hundreds of free channels, easy ways to buy or watch films from top providers, and no additional charges to watch streaming services like Netflix or Hulu if you already subscribe. And If you have cable, Roku brings new ways to watch based on your cable subscription.

Q: Are there any charges or monthly fees?
Purchasing your Roku player is a one-time charge. There are no monthly fees to use your Roku player, and many Roku channels offer you high-quality entertainment for free. Depending on which channels you want to watch, on-demand fees or subscription fees may apply.

Check out the Roku Channel Store and explore what to watch

Q: Can I watch all of my favorite TV shows?

Services like Hulu, HBO NOW, or Netflix offer a variety of shows all on demand – some, as early as one day after airing. If you have cable, Roku players make it easy to catch up on past episodes or depending on your provider, to add select programming to any room without a new cable box.

Q: What kind of internet connection do I need?

Roku players should work well with almost any broadband connection. We recommend a minimum of 3.0 Mbps for HD content (1.5Mbps for SD). But don’t worry, the average speed in Malaysia is about 5 Mbps or more.

Q: For Roku 4, even though I have subscribed Netflix 4k UHD Plan, why can’t I stream Netflix  in 4K Ultra HD quality?
A: You must meet the following requirement in order to stream Netflix in 4K UHD resolution:-

1.  4K Ultra HD Television with a High Speed HDMI Cable

2.  High Speed Broadband minimum of 20 Mbps

3.  4K Ultra HD content from channels like Netflix and M-GO require a copy protection standard called “HDCP 2.2”. In order to view this content in 4K Ultra HD, your Roku player must be plugged into a “HDCP 2.2” compatible HDMI® port. Different TVs will have different configurations, and some will label the correct HDMI® port, but its a good idea refer to your TV manufacturer’s owner’s manual.

Not all content requires HDCP 2.2, however, and you can enjoy 4K UHD content from channels like YouTube, as well as your own personal 4K photos and videos without this restriction.
