Here’s the deal. People want to be able to buy a new TV, and get the channels they used to get. This thing makes it almost impossible to maintain those channels, without, jumping through many hoops. See if you can make another video explaining how to just get your Hisense Ruko TV to EASILY get at the local, antenna channels, AFTER SCANNING for them.

Once you have scanned and looked for channels, you must put the atenna icon on the home page! That way you can click on ANTENNA and view the guide list. You see ROKU works off the WIFI for its streaming. If your WIFI/INTERNET goes out, then you can still turn on your TV, and click the Antenna Icon, and scroll to the channel you want to watch! You see this is a different connection, where as you need no WIFI/INTERNET to watch TV.@@jen4725

So I scanned the channels on antenna and got like 300+ channels on a brand new 2024 Philips Roku TV similar to this - I love it - BUT - I have trouble finding my basic channels I was used to on antenna - like ch 2-13 and the other stuff like 11-3, 13-3, 56-3 and many others I would potentially watch regularly. How to I find those basic local channels easily.??? They are buried within thos 300 channels - which I love - but I need to find basic stuff I used to watch - like say - Jeopardy on ch. 7 every night. Somebody help - I only just got this and will figure it out - but for now I am overwhelmed by all these other channels that play shows 24 hrs a day - like Bonanza or whatever lol - I love those and but I need my basic channels at my fingertips. Unlike the video - I didn't get 40 or 50 channels - I got hundreds to sift through. How do I get to those basic antenna channels??? Thanks.

The question is, how do you watch JUST local TV channels? Roku crams a bunch of digital channels that are just a waste of scrolling time.
@kikesantos28548 ай бұрын
Well, I figured out. I just wanted to watch the game and it's playing through my local CBS for free but Roku TV does not display those channels at all (plus it shows a thousand channels and it's impossible to navigate), I'm pretty sure cause it wants you to pay for Hulu or Paramount Plus. Anyways, the way you do it is to not be hooked up to the internet. If your setup is wireless you will have to hook up an ethernet cable to the TV (you have to do it this way otherwise it will go back to the original WiFi network automatically). Since the cable is NOT hooked up to anything it will give you an error code; restart the TV. At this point your Roku TV does not have internet. Scan for channels with an antenna and boom! Just local channels are just displayed. Hope someone benefits from this. Don't pay for monthly services ya'll!
