I simply can not afford to buy 4 Rokus. No argument that it is the best way to go. Just for record there Google but I have found there is a lot of bad information on the internet, That is why I come to Remote Central to ask the pros who I respect so much, Thanks again for all the help.

Now you are irritating. You think you are going to find a distribution solution that costs less than four Rokus.

Damn, you Ernie; now I have to learn how to use the slide rule.

Update:
Couple of videos later I can conclude that they were kinds cool; never had to learn how to use one in school.

To me a slide rule was fascinating. Who came up with that seemingly random thing that gives correct answers every time?

I'll tell you what, my slide rule did not run out of battery power like my TI calculator did whilst taking the final in my electronics calculus class... :(
There is no truth anymore. Only assertions. The internet world has no interest in truth, only vindication for preconceived assumptions.

I feel like helping today. :) This will be cheaper than 4 Roku 3. Enjoy!

This dude doesn't understand the profit:grief ratio.

If there are multiple possible explanations for an event or result, the simplest is almost always correct.

I don't know what kind of spare time this guy has, but $400 in Rokus is a much simpler solution than patching together a bunch of Monoprice junk.

I thought of a REALLY REALLY Old Skool way to distribute 1 Roku to 4 TVs.

Carry the Roku from room to room like the old AV carts in school

Actually, you can buy 4 Rokus for $200 if you don't care about getting the gyration remote for angry birds

If you cant afford to buy 4 roku's, then you cant afford to buy the HD Fury either.

Roku has their stick coming out soon. You wont even need an HDMI cable to get one to each TV. $49 each.

We are not "Pros" because we find the cheapest most unreliable way to cram 10 lbs of shit into 2 1/2 lbs containers. We're pros because we do this stuff right. What you are trying to do really has no right way for the budget you apparently have. we are saving you money and giving you a better way of doing this by suggesting the 4 Roku's.

if you just want to brag about what awful cobbled together monstrosity you came up with, there are all kinds of folks over on avsforums that love that stuff.
