will this work on an older analog tv? i have my Roku2 XS connected via composite wires in the bedroom. Just curious.

yes it will because it has not only HDMI outlet but also component TV outlet ( red white and yellow connectors ) if your TV is really really old and has only the antenna IN connection in that case just get a modulator ( less than 15$) to connect Roku to Antenna IN in your TV with component. see here http://www.ebay.com/itm/Philips-PH61159-RF-Modulator-Video-Converter-with-S-VIDEO-INPUT-/261066772715

The mount comes with 3-4 different ways to mount it to the tv, so it should work in one way or another. It comes with 3 varying size clips for the vents on the back of the tv, or a mount for the wall OR a velcro strap you can use.

It depends on where the vents on the tv are located. If the vents are on the bottom, no probably not but if the vents are on the top, then probably yes. The holders hangs from plastic hook-like gizmos, they need at least two matching holes to stick in to support the holder.

Yes, just go to any hardware store and purchase a wide piece of velcro and attach a piece to the Roku and another piece to the television. It will hold the mounting bracket in place . Rick

I have a 50" 2002 Mitsubishi back projection TV with round vent holes on the chipboard on the back. The mount has 3 or 4 different holding interchangeable supports and it fit perfectly.

It should not if it is a digital TV. That is what I used it on and it works just fine. If it is an old analog I think you will need a box.

your Setup box would need to have composite or HDMI ouput, this you just connect it to one of the inputs of the Receiver, if you still use the old type of analog cable were you receive only a coaxial connection you would need a TV or VCR or Cable turner to pass signal from coaxial to a composite output.

You could run the red yellow and white from roku to an RF Modulator, then coaxial out from the RF modulator to a really old tv. Amazon sells the RF modulators.

The XDS does have both composite and component outputs, so it will work with an older TV. However, if closed captioning happens to be important to you, look at the Roku 2XS instead.

NOT unless your TV has a digital tuner. An analog NTSC tuner will not work.

Jeff, my Samsung does not have analog hook-up; only digital. So, mine does not work with the smart TV's either.They say to buy a digital to analog wire. Best by said that they don't carry that but I might be able to find one on line.Haven't done that yet. Good luck

Probably not simply because this needs to work with an MHL enabled HDMI port. Most older TVs just are HDMI in. Unless the hotel has updated their TVs in year 2013 it's best to bring along the old roku puck. Hope this helps.

The Channel Master 7001 tuner is not an analog tuner. It is a digital only type tuner. It can pick up digital ATSC signals (over the air digital signals) and it can pickup unscrambled QAM digital signals on a cable TV system. But neither of these two formats are the older type of NTSC "analog" signals you are asking about. Of course analog signals are no longer broadcast over the air and many cable systems are also getting rid of them too since it is an outdated approach. But many cable systems also still carry some analog signals (in standard definition) for those customers that don't want to pay for digital cable boxes or don't have compatible equipment. Most TVs today have both a built in digital tuner and an analog NTSC type tuner so a TV can scan in both types of channels. While it is a drawback of the 7001 tuner that it can't do analog NTSC channels, the price is still very low for what you get given its digital capabilities. I've bought mine realizing it was not going to do the analog channels. I've had it for about two months and really like it for receiving digital HD signals on cable. I use it with an Epson HD projector.

I'm not sure how the remote would know what kind of TV it is controlling, but I can tell you that my ROKU replacement remote is not used in an HD application. My understanding was that if I upgraded to an HD TV everything would work the same as long as I used the proper HDMI cable instead of the coax that was included with the original unit. I guess I would trust what ROKU says even though my understanding is not complete. Hope I didn't make it more confusing.

It will work at with an analog TV. My sons have one In their room so it doesn't get cable. I bought this so they can watch movies in their room. Its good for the price.

since it uses the coaxial input on the TV, you will need to tune your TV to channel 3 or 2. and that will have to be ANALOG channel 3 or 2. remember, this is to connect a new device to an older tv that does not have AV inputs.

Composite video is low-quality analog video. You would only use composite cables if you had an older TV without HDMI inputs. If you connect your TV to this Roku with an HDMI cable you'll get a 720p image. If you want 1080p you'll have to buy a more expensive model of Roku.

Yes; however, you will still require a digital converter box (converts digital to analog) as older TVs do not understand digital signals without external aid.

Your analog TV has to have a digital converter to receive the digital signals on an analog TV. Once you have a converter the Monoprice 104730 will receive the digital signals over the air and you will be able to view local stations without the use of satellite or cable. Distance will affect whether you receive signals or not. Aswith the old analog TVs and the rabbit ears of the old days, if you were too far from a signal provider the pictures came in fuzzy or not at all. I live in the Dallas Fort Worth area and I work about 20 to 30 miles away and I am able to receive most channels at work. I use it to watch NFL games on Sundays and Mondays when I work.

My TV is analog and I pulled signal with no converter box. But the antenna wasn't great for my area, which could have been a geographical issue, but a cheap $10 pair of rabbit ears worked best for me.

If it is an analog tv (box style) you will still need a digital convertet. After I priced them, I bought a cheap flatscreen (cheapest I could find) because some converters were up to $50.
