How to setup a roku account

Where do you find the nowtv? How much does it go for? I would only have the netflix and few other channels on the US account so shouldn't be too much of an issue.

I ordered it off their website and had someone post it down. Only cost £10 for the device (it's a rebranded Roku) :)
 
Ok so 1 email address for us and one for uk....i would set up the uk account same like the us but just change my country to uk? And just use a McDonald's address again? it wont cause any problems with the roku changing accounts not daily but say 4 or 5 times monthly? I just got the roku so i think ill wait on the now tv. I want to get it working properly and get to understand it.

Yes, separate emails for each account as they accounts are totally unique.

I had to make use of a VPN to create a UK account, but it seems you can now just change the region on UnoTelly. Choosing a country doesn't help, it picks up where you coming from.

You can check if you created an UK account, because during registration you get to choose channels and it will show you 0 GBP on the left. If it shows $0, then you have created a US account.

Aah seems simple enough. I should give it a try later. Are the free channels on uk better than us? It seems to me alot of the free us channels still need cable account details to setup so no use to us.

Can't say, never used US free channels.
 
I tried watching eNCA once and the quality was awful. Has it improved?

Haven't checked in a while but certainly the last time I did it was much better. Is prone to going down sometimes but I think etv is part of the problem.
 
Roku Private Channels

Add my private channels to your roku device : futuretv and songtweet

(1) The futuretv channel has live news channels and loads of live music channels . We do not host the feeds only the songtweet music video and live stream so picture quality depends on independent streams.

(2) Songtweet - Our live internet music radio stream

Did you set your Roku region to UK in Unotelly?

I got the app and uk is selected. Do i do it online as well? Should i deactivate the account and try again?

Go to the Unotelly website, select dynamo and confirm the roku setting.
 
I apologise for the slight thread hijack.

I wanted to purchase a Roku 3 since the UI on the samsung smart tv is such shyte but I see now that takealot is out of stock.

Just using an address won't work. Go onto UnoTelly and go to Dynamo and change the Roku region to UK. Then try register.

Let me know.
