[Electronics-Talk] Roku Apps and Spectrum Box

[Peter Donahue]

Hello Andy and everyone,

Not so. In my previous post I mentioned that we can use either the Spectrum
110 box or the Spectrum Roku App. In addition to having the Spectrum Roku
App on our TV Spectrum also issued us an additional Roku box we can hook up
to another device such as one of our desktops should we choose to do so.
Hence it is possible to have both the Spectrum 110 box and the Spectrum App.
Both can be running at the same time if one chooses to use the Roku App for
Spectrum to address a matter such as low volume and still have the Spectrum
Box active in the background. It's simply a matter of switching between the
HDMI port for your Spectrum Box and whatever other Roku App you use
regularly.

	As I'm writing this our Spectrum 110 Box is running in the
background while we're listening to some Christmas music via the Amazon
Music Roku App. How cool is that!? All the best.

Peter Donahue

Sherri,

Just call the Spectrum accessibility line and they'll step you through the 
process.  Within an hour of my call, I was up and running with 2 boxes.  You

may not have that kind of luck as far as speed is concerned, but you will 
get the box.  I am surprised that the existance of the box was not 
publicized more.  I only found out about it when I read Peter's post.  One 
thing to keep in mind is if you already have the Roku that Sectrum provides,

you will have to give it up if you want the new box.
Enjoy!
Andy
