I have Netflix on my TV and a cable box. Do I need some type of converter as suggested on the box. Where do I get it?

I can't answer your question. I returned the unit I purchased because it did not have sufficient range. I purchased another radiofrequency unit. Sorry.

No problem connecting the Serene. Easy to use. Just wish I could totally adjust sound on TV to zero and still hear with ear buds.

So far this unit does not interfere with the connections you have on your TV because those go as inputs and the serene goes as output. Therefore, you shouldn't need any converter or adapter.

No well it depends on I there anything wrong with the TV right now the TV has a av cable hook up and a cable wire hook up should work fine so no converter box is needed unless one of them don't work and I don't think you will have a problems with that though anyway if there is something wrong with is and there shouldnt be you can always return it

If you go to the Roku website they had a $20 off coupon for new Netflix customers, and that may still be in effect. I'm considering another one to hook up to the lcd tv in front of my treadmill-it's very small and would give me a lot more viewing options without running any more wires or cables.

Well also it just a regular TV I mean all you have to do is either hook up your cable TV up by Hdmi or cable wire or TV intena by wire and I guess you could use the converter box for free TV I don't know how that works

I just bought this same model. Very nice. very easy. make sure the tvis connected to the internet. have your computer standing by and have netflix open and logged in. press the viera cast button on the remote and open netflix, it should promt and give you a code. on your computer, click "my account & help" (upper right). scroll down to "watching instantly on your tv or computer" find the link "actvate a netflix ready device" and open it. it will ask you to enter the code you were given by your tv. enter and setup will proceed automatically. enjoy.

I already had a converter but I don't know if one was supposed to be included. I do not remember getting one.

if you have a cable that works, then anything that has a tv out option will work. ie: Netflix, Hulu Plus, online videos/movies, YouTube...etc. however I bought this product & it worked horribly! I went to best buy & purchased a belkin cable instead & it works great!

if your tv is not capable of digital conversion, yes you will need a digital convertor

we conntected directly to our Dish Satellite. I don't think a converter is needed whether you hook to cable, TV antenna, or satellite. That should all be covered in the instruction booklet though. I love mine in my kitchen while I prepare meals.

If you have ever had a cable or satellite company connect their wire/cable/coaxial to your device to provide you with viewing content, your device has a digital tuner and all you need to do is connect the antenna the same way the commercial companies connected to your television. If you have only used "rabbit ears" antenna you will need a converter box.

I don't think you can. My advice is to take it back (send it back) get a sony blu ray player and get a newer tv. :) You probably will not be happy with this unit if you use Netflix. I'm not.

if you have the new tv you don,t need converter boxes .the one i have has two outputs but may be able to use 3 or more by using a splitter

It depends on if your TV is HD ready. If not, you will not receive the HD signal without the converter box.

Hi, MaryAnn - yes that's why we bought it. Now we don't need the little converter box we had been using to grab the antenna signals. The antenna wire (coax from the antenna) goes straight into the Magnavox unit, and then you connect the Magnavox directly to your TV. Works great!

You should not need a converter box. Have you tried connecting the antenna directly or using a better HD antenna?

The cable is able to upconvert to 4K if the input signal from the device is at 1080p 24 Hz or 30 Hz. If your cable box is outputting at 1080 60Hz, it won't be able to upconvert to 4K.

You dont need the digital stream converter for the sharp liquid crystal tv. It has the converter built into it.
