Commercials don't matter to me I like this Channel cuz it has a lot of movies but it definitely needs a search bar
Started watching movie after 3 commercials and then 3 min into the movie I had to watch 3 more commercials. This kept this stupid cycle up until about 26 min in then it would kick me out to the OvGuide and then I had to start all over. This is pure $#*!. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME! ROKU should be ashamed of having this channel on their list. I gave it a 1 because I didn't have the option to go -1000
I watched several commercials with no issues. Then 3 minutes of a movie with constant buffering. Then back to 3 more commercials with no issues. Then when it was time for the movie it stuck in buffer mode. The loading line was full but it stuck and never loaded the movie. 3 minutes of the movie is all I got.
Tried to watch Spin at least 10 different times. Waited through the commercials but it never starts. BAIT AND SWITCH?
OVGUIDE.com (hereafter OVG) is very handy helping you locate a video or TV show of interest. Turns out OVG's search results will steer you to OTHER SITES where you can view your video but generally at a COST, of course. I executed a search: (FOX's "FRINGE" season2/episode 1 - I'd missed), and was really knocked out by what seemed to be free access to some great stuff.
Forty-seven minutes into my program a screen pops up informing me I'd "exceeded my bandwidth". I hate exceeding my bandwidth. Bottom line I could 'come back in about an HOUR and watch more, or, cough-up $59.95 for a years membership' and watch to my heart's content.
So OVG search actually costs $10 for a complete membership (a watered-down free version is available), AND... whatever web site you're routed to will likely charge to see that video.
This is not to say that OVG isn't handy, but ultimately FREE it's not.
Rather than pony-up $60 without checking, I slid over to "fox.com." A quick search found Fringe which I watched in it's entirety, absolutely gratis. FOX is great about that.
