It would depend on which type of home theater receiver you are using. If your receiver supports a video/audio out connection that you can connect to your TV, then most receivers typically have the basic analog yellow, red and white RCA input jacks that you would need to connect to. These RCA input jacks are sometimes located on your receiver as A/V In.. Hope this helps.

We're going Roku to TV with HDMI, then TV out to receiver/stereo with RCA and that works; but no way to go direct from Roku 2 to receiver with RCA

I have my Roku hooked into my home theater receiver with the RCA connections. If that doesn't work for you, you have 30 days to return the Roku (when purchased from Amazon).

if you are not already using the hdmi slot on the roku to connect to your tv it should work !!! your tv should be connected tou your avr so that everything that plays thru the tv will play thru the surround sound !

I don't know how the Roku Streaming Stick attaches to the TV. What kind of input does it require? We have an original Roku hooked up to this TV with an HDMI cable, so if the stick attaches through the same kind of input, then I would say yes.

No external HDMI input from any other device but you can use the optical input which will automatically use the 5.1 feature. Does Roku have optical out? http://www.usa.philips.com/c-p/HTS3564_F7/5.1-home-theater/specifications

I havent tried it with a ROKU box, but it has HDMI, component and composite inputs, so I'm sure it will work fine.

Yes, the Roku will hook up to your TV through either HDMI or RCA (red, white, yellow). It depends a little on what connection your converter box uses, but on most TVs, you can hook the converter box to a second set of RCA jacks or the coaxial connection and then just switch between inputs to watch either Roku or the converter box.

no you cannot, you can only control the receiver with the included remote. You would need a universal remote to control everything with one remote; however, there are no universal remotes at the moment that will control the Roku. . so even in your best case scenario you will need at least two because the Roku remote does not control volume at all. (I wish I had known this before I purchased everything for my new setup, seems to be a design fail)

The TV has an HMDI output, so I was able to connect my Roku with an HDMI cable.

The ROKU 2 HD comes with a composite (R,Y,W) cable... if you want to watch in HD you will need to purchase a separate HDMI cable.I wonder if there is a HDMI hub where multiple HDMI devices can be connected to one port on your TV.

Cheryl, can you tell me what type of connections you have on the back of the tv? I connected my roku via two RCA inputs for sound and one RCA input for video.

Yes, it can connect with Roku's. Use this compatible link for Harmony remotes, which it will show products that are compatible and then how to set it up. Also on the page, it will show you how to "teach" the remote to "learn" how to work for products not on their compatible list. Compatibility link for remote http://bit.ly/12ElIz2

Not at all, in fact, if your TV doesn't have a HDMI input, the Roku comes with a composite video cable. You plug the cable into the back of the Roku, and the other end has three plugs on it, a yellow, a red and a white that you plug into the matching colors on the back of your TV set.Hope this helps

You may attach a Roku player to the TV via the HDMI in port, as long as your Roku box has HDMI output. The TV itself is not a "smart" tv. The Roku box is the "smart" part :)

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

I believe you should connect your Roku directly to your TV. Then use your TV remote to switch to either HDMI 1, HDMI 2 or HDMI 3 (just depends on how many HDMI inputs you have on your TV).

I use a Roku on mine for Amazon/Netflix... It connects into one of the HDMI ports. Works great!

You should not need this device. Just run an HDMI cable from roku to TV. HDMI carries both video and audio.
