Good evening Steve I set up my Roku express 4k showed up in the HomeKit but unable to use it to switch the tv to on or off. Please can you assist me on how to fix this. Thanks
how bad really is the latency? I would like to use something like this for my pc monitor to use it as a secondary screen for my MacBook without a cable. It would mainly be for watching videos or just seeing a website on a bigger screen
Hi Steve. Thanks for the review. Planning to get a Roku Ultra 2019. Does this work well with Airplay 2 and Homekit? When doing screen mirroring, what device name will appear? Lastly, Im planning to use the USB Port to watch movies from my HDD. Does it have a pre-installed media player that can support .mkv video files?
@@TechSteve Thanks. A few more questions if you don't mind. Can you comment on how responsive the Airplay performs on a Roku? Is it comparable to the Apple TV? Lastly, regarding the Bluetooth, can I connect a wireless keyboard and headphones here with no lag issues?
Mine says make sure router is plugged in, on and TV is connected to network. I live in an apartment and do not have a wifi router; will this still work without one?
Hey! Just got 55S535 and trying to screen the mirror from my mac. However, there is a good 2-second lag between the mac and the screener. By any chance do you know the reason for this Steve and a way to fix it? Thank you
@@TechSteve but when I had Samsung it was pretty smooth but the lag on this one is disgusting, and couldn't find any information either on TCL or Roku to resolve this situation
Alright Steve I was beating myself up trying to figure out what had happened to my phone and TCL ROKU Because they had previously not a problem the cash to I had it hooked up and thought I was good to go but I have run through everything I can think of what you said and I got it to hook up to home again HomeKit and everything and it’s giving me a hell of a time to require the code and I’m just I’m not getting the AirPlay at all?
Damn no youtuber is showing me what i wanna see or what my issue is. Yea basic mirroring works but what about going to safari and wanna stream a movie or something. On mine it doesn’t do it it just flickers and goes back to the the airplay set up screen. And on my phone showes the time is running and its working but my tv just sits on airplay setup display🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
@@TechSteve yea I thought so because it works on some websites but not on others. Its really frustrating that it has that and it honestly makes me wanna buy the apple tv. Pretty sure theres zero issues there. But thanks for you’re respond
Does Your TV Have this update? If not what's the model?
Roku 9.4 Update News tinyurl.com/yxr3gawc
Social Media Links solo.to/techsteve
@Tech Steve do you know if you can get the sound from your roku stick to play on your home pod mini or do you have to have an apple tv to do that?
home pod doesn’t connect to any thing besides apple
@@TechSteve Ok thank you for the response I really appreciate it
Big fan, please what is the size of your tv and the brand and price 🙏🙏🙏
There’s a link in the description

Can you now “stream” Fitness Plus to the TV?
how bad really is the latency? I would like to use something like this for my pc monitor to use it as a secondary screen for my MacBook without a cable. It would mainly be for watching videos or just seeing a website on a bigger screen
How good is it? How much delays on gaming? HDMI 2.1 ??? Over all is it a good 4K
Your question is confusing
When I press airplay it shows the logo then kicks me out what do I do?
I have the same issue on my Toshiba 55”. Tv. Not a smart tv and use Roku streaming stick +
thank you for your service.
In the moment that I pick add a device the home app finds the tv, but it’s says that it can’t connect any advice?
same

You will have to see if it received the AirPlay update. You can change the name, i haven’t tried any usb movie files, use plex instead
@@TechSteve Thanks. A few more questions if you don't mind. Can you comment on how responsive the Airplay performs on a Roku? Is it comparable to the Apple TV? Lastly, regarding the Bluetooth, can I connect a wireless keyboard and headphones here with no lag issues?
I can’t add the tv to HomeKit, I scan it but it just loads and doesn’t continue
Same issue I am having. 🤦🏾♀️
Do you have a newer iPhone? Are you on the same wifi frequency? Is your wifi current and updated?
@@TechSteve I have an iPhone 7 and I’m always connected to wifi
Are you in the same wifi freq. 2.4ghz on both or 5ghz. www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00082643/
Will the Airplay setup work if there is no WiFi? I would like to show pictures from my iPhone to a Roku TV in an area that has Zero WiFi.
It needs WiFi
Mine says make sure router is plugged in, on and TV is connected to network. I live in an apartment and do not have a wifi router; will this still work without one?
None of the smart features will not work. Watch this ruclips.net/video/OHq80oTfLJw/видео.html

If you’re referring to Airplay it not a direct connection and uses wifi, you have to use a hdmi cable to avoid lag

Different brands, different designers
Where did you get that wood bamboo TV platform?
Ikea
It’s not required to setup HomeKit in order to use Airplay right?
No

Set it up where it only needs a code onetime and it will save each device.
please compare these TV 's with sony 😎
Stay tuned in.
@@TechSteve with samsung and lg too....😍
I have the 9.4 update and I tried updating the software and I am still not getting the airplay setting in my tv
Some model are not available
Hey i did try it on my roku tv its still not there i even updated it and restarted the tv i still cannot see airplay and homekit
It’s not compatible with your unit it it doesn’t appear
When are they going to add support for x265 files?? What a joke that tcl doesn't support that yet. Basically every other TV has for years now.
I am on 9.4 but i dont have option for airplay/HomeKit
It could be your region or device
I have 10.0 but I still don’t have apple AirPlay and HomeKit 2 why does this happen?
It could be the model or region
@@TechSteve I live in the u.s
@@TechSteve and the model is 32S305
I’m not sure, you can call Samsung but it’s up to them, it’s not something you can over ride. Sorr
@@TechSteve I have the latest software that is compatible with apple AirPlay and HomeKit 2 but it doesn’t show up in settings
Hello I have that tv but it does not have airplay it’s updated to 9.4 and it’s does not show please help
It’s up to Roku and TCL, sorry it doesn’t work for you. BTW are you in the usa?
@@TechSteve I’m in the USA and having the same issue
Its it the tv in this video? Not all models are getting this update
Hey, my roku is updated to 9.4 and STILL doesn’t have airplay on it. What do I do?
It’s only available on some models and regions. It works on all my devices I have that’s why I created the video
@@TechSteve Okay, thank you.
Damn no youtuber is showing me what i wanna see or what my issue is. Yea basic mirroring works but what about going to safari and wanna stream a movie or something.

There’s Protection in place-on some media that’s why it flickers, you will have to use a laptop or a app the supports the content.
@@TechSteve yea I thought so because it works on some websites but not on others. Its really frustrating that it has that and it honestly makes me wanna buy the apple tv. Pretty sure theres zero issues there. But thanks for you’re respond
Some site use html 5 and those normally play fine. But good luck
