“works OK”
🤘 I’ll take it!


Oh, that sucks!


Roku provides us no method to know you exited the app. If you don’t press stop, pause, or back out of the video player and instead simply press Home, the server will think you’ve watched up to the end of your buffered amount of the video.


A mixed playlist is a playlist of mixed media. Movies, shows, audio, etc. all mixed together in a single playlist.


Once you get into it, it’s not that bad.
I liken it to the love child of Classic ASP and JavaScript.
🤔 …ok, maybe it is that bad.


🤘Enjoy


Roku only offers me shuffle in shows. Is there a way I can enable it in music
Want to shuffle play your entire music library?
On the home screen, move the cursor over the music library and press PLAY on your remote. It’ll play 2000 random songs.
What to shuffle play all songs by an artist?
Go to your music library and switch to one of the Artist views. Find the artist you want and press PLAY on your remote. It’ll play their songs in random order.
What to shuffle play a single album?
Go to your music library and switch to “Albums” view. Find the album you want and press * on your remote. Choose “Shuffle Play Album”
You can also do this with any album listed on the home screen.
Or, in the upcoming 3.1.0 release, I’ve added a Shuffle Play button as part of the redesign of the album screen.

and/or is there somewhere I could donate something small to your time to add a shuffle button to roku’s music client?
If you feel so inclined, donation links are at the top of my GH profile: https://github.com/1hitsong but money isn’t why I do this.


Which client were you using? Android? Roku? etc.


I put my time and effort into the Roku client because I’m not a C# programmer.


What features do you see as missing?
The client uses Roku’s built-in language capabilities. If they set their language on the Roku device, the client will use that language.


He broke my watch!


Thank you angry video game nerd 🤓


Welcome To Flatch. The show was uniquely weird in a way I enjoyed.

/me threw it away weeks ago 😬
It’s difficult to pick a favorite between Shirley Manson and Brody Dale.
