this made me cry about roku… Who the hell uses 10/100 in 2016,
Since this box won’t be able to play back a media stream with more than 100mbps anyway, what’s the loss?
The 100mbps speed only affects this one wire up to the ethernet switch (for most home users integrated into their router). The rest of the devices in the local network are not affected by this.
so ¯\(ツ)/¯

I have some movies from a UHD privat tracker that is over 100mbs average bitrate… But i do have a usb to ethernet laying around, does this work on the roku, if so the problem is solved.

I doubt the Roku will be able to play such a file.

I don’t think so.

well that was a dream crusher… Not really anything i can do. Guess i will have to wait for the 2017 model samsung blu ray player with tizen, so i can use the official plex app…

Pretty sure .srt support is player dependent not hardware dependent. I can’t comment if plex supports them (I imagine it must), as I have everything within a mkv container.
I am pretty sure that SRT files are supported on the Shield.
As long as they are UTF-8 encoded, that is.
