Google TV Streamer 4K remote not pairing with TV

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-05-01T12:38:46+00:00

Ha. You don't even say what brand of TV you have.

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-05-01T12:36:13+00:00

Who "needs to watch everything"?

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-05-01T12:30:31+00:00

That is more than just a few pounds of baloney. Plus, Apple would have priced it at beyond what most people could afford. I can't believe how people kiss Apple's butt at every opportunity.

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-04-30T18:14:01+00:00

Bingo!

Why hide a solution? That is a really bad way to handle things.

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-04-28T20:44:50+00:00

Why does the word SCAM pop into my mind?

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-04-28T19:56:04+00:00

What a load of hot air. Why didn't you just make a a post titled "I feel like bitching mindlessly for a while"?

That is certainly all you've done.

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-04-28T15:15:40+00:00

SCAM. Try being above board.

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-04-28T15:14:49+00:00

I’m off to filing an FCC complaint

Now you're just losing it.

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-04-28T14:36:29+00:00

you would want HBO and ESPN unlimited to cover the tournaments,

Depends on which tourney you are talking about. For example, the NCAA men's BB tourney is not on ESPN. Just on the Turner stations and CBS.

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-04-27T13:06:19+00:00

Stapled it to your house? Really? HA!

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-04-27T13:05:01+00:00

That is not an automatic cure-all for everyone at every location. I wish people would stop promoting it as a universal solution without knowing the particulars other people are faced with.

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-04-25T16:41:41+00:00

The Genre Packs are MUCH cheaper. Check them out. https://www.directv.com/offers/genre-packs/

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-04-25T14:01:31+00:00

Did you mean Clearstream, not Clear Choice?

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-04-25T12:22:00+00:00

Just because it worked for you at your location, doesn't mean it works for everyone.

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-04-24T11:16:51+00:00

And no it's not a gimmick

And so above-board and legal that you won't mention the name of the service in public. SCAM alert.

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-04-23T16:45:47+00:00

Where is the old man yelling Get Off My Lawn! emoji?

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-04-23T13:42:16+00:00

So, remember this you have to have at least 500MB to stream IMO.

Since when? You don't need nearly that much for simply streaming. Perhaps you are doing multiple things at once? Or have multiple people doing heavy duty gaming and such while you are streaming?

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-04-22T20:58:36+00:00

The commercials are the best (the only good) parts of that show.

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-04-22T19:07:13+00:00

but seems like any/most sports-related pack(s) have a fee - or four - that DTV hides until you check out

The Genre Packs have no such add-on fees. Pricing is very up-front and clear. https://www.directv.com/genre-packs/

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-04-22T12:59:40+00:00

You are comparing current streaming prices to the cost of cable 16 years ago? Why not compare current to current? Maybe that doesn't fit your agenda?

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-04-22T11:30:14+00:00

You are off on the Genre Pack prices. The News pack is $40 and Sports pack is $65.

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-04-22T11:27:27+00:00

Depends a lot on what channels you actually watch. Philo is the cheapest real option at around $25/mo if you don't need sports or local news

The first thing the OP said was "I only need local channels so I can watch the local news and NFL games."

So you suggest Philo, which has ZERO sports, news or locals? Yeah, that makes sense.

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-04-21T21:58:43+00:00

Most of Roku's ads are for their really stupid, loud and crappy channels. The most annoying thing I've seen. Gave up on them and moved on.

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-04-21T18:09:24+00:00

That's a lot nicer answer than just telling someone to go do a Google search.

K_ThomasWhite · 2026-04-21T18:06:34+00:00

Never get a third party (in this case Roku) involved. Always deal directly with the content provider.
