    First, this video tutorial is great! And, although I already had/have my TV and Cable Box connected exactly like this, it's fantastic to know that this is how I'll be able to access Roku and Roku Channels.
    However..... On their TCL Roku page for this tutorial: "How to Connect your Cable or Satellite Receiver to your TCL Roku TV", their Step 5 has a Misprint in the first sentence!
    And due to my OCD, I feel that I needed to let it be known, so that they can hopefully change/fix their Misprint.
    Here below, copied and pasted between quotation marks, is their Step 5 - first sentence...
    "If the receiver if powered on and cables are properly plugged your TV will recognize the connection."
    Do you see the Misprint?
    Also, do you see where some Punctuation was "possibly" left out of that above sentence?
    I know this probably seems ridiculous, but it drives me crazy when I see/read where Editing was Not properly executed!
    Companies do pay darn good money for Editing!! So really, the Edited Information should Not have any Errors...
    ** End of my rant, lol **

    We used coax connection. The confusing part was there is an input icon showing a cable box, there is also an icon showing a pic of a coax cable labeled "Cable" yet we had to use the "Antenna" input icon?? Then we had to scan for cable (box) channels which I've never had to do before. Helpful video, just wish I would have found it 45 mins sooner...LOL

      @@cipherrevenant3239 Yeah I did. In my case, you had to point the roku remote at a certain angle in line with the lighted receptor on the tv for entering only the email address to connect the roku remote. Unfortunately, it took like 30 minutes just to enter 15 character email address, but it worked fine there after. I also found a post where you basically take out the batteries, press every button hard and fast, and repeat this 2-3 times. It works, kinda

    I had horrendous CONcast for 35 years but now have a Roku TV I can't find ANYTHING on. I attached an antenna for local channels & it takes FOREVER to find the relevant channels among the 58 other channels. I'm thinking of subscribing to DISH satellite but don't know how it integrates with the Roku. I CERTAINLY don't want to have to use the infuriating Roku remote to get the Dish channels. I tried a chat on the Dish site who said you have to use BOTH remotes. At the rate we misplaced our CONcast remotes, this sounds like a real nightmare.

I’m using a brand new HDMI cable and both devices are on and working and the correct HDMI port is selected and I’m still getting a “No Signal (Is It On?)” response. The only advice on the roku website says replace the hdmi cable. I just feel so out of luck and options here.
