Good news Side Loading works. However you can only use one dev channel at a time but at least you can

I went straight to the roku box and must admit I'm very impressed, had a couple of problems with demand 5 and usnowtv but it's all sorted now. I'm surprised there's no YouTube channel though.

I know have my Now TV Box. What have people started using theirs for and if for streaming how have you set it up?

how are people getting on with their boxes?

My dad uses his nowtv one. I use my roku box on a daily basis and think it's great.

I do have the occasional issue with demand 5 though.

I just wish there as an official youtube app.

I use the Plex App every day pretty much and have added Youtube to it. There are other apps you can sideload but it only allows one at a time. There is a code the nowtv just refuses to give up that allows syncing it with Roku but its well worth the tenner

It doesn't seem to work with the Virgin Media Superhub 2, I have tried to secret menu and turning of pings but it still won't connect. Getting BT infinity installed next week so I have held off sending it back in the hope it works with a BT Homehub 4.

I ordered one of these yesterday, and tried it on my laptop till I get it.
I'm a bit annoyed that there's no voucher codes to get it for £1 a month for 3 months and such like a lot of others have had. but I suppose I can just re-register with other cards to get a few months for free.

I noticed it won't work on jailbroken ipads and such, which is a shame as I could link the account to my niece and nephews ipads when I jailbreak them.

LOL I've been adding devices and taking some off, and now I'm left with "You've used up your monthly allowance for adding new devices"

so now I just have my laptop linked to the account, and it looks like I won't be able to add the box itself when I get it!
