Roku UK Channel Store - Weekly RoundUp #332





Hi, everyone !!



As per the last few weeks... there's been another small but steady increase in developer output, thus continuing the upward momentum in terms of the number of new Roku channel releases, and I am (once again) pleased to report we've had a slight incremental rise in new apps when compared to the total count from last week thanks to ANOTHER DECENT CROP OF NEW CHANNELS that have further boosted the UK Channel Store total. To wit, NINETY-FIVE NEW ROKU APPS have been added to the already vast selection of over seven thousand three hundred apps which populated the channel store as of this time last week. That means we have now seen almost two thousand eight hundred new apps made available, during a period of just twenty-nine weeks, any of which UK Roku owners can add to the individual selection of apps that are installed on their device(s). As if that wasn't enough... there were also several items of streaming-related news for me to report on but, as has been the case for the last few months I must (again) postpone my summary of Roku (and other) news from the past week until I can find time to catch up with everything and add the "missing" details to those posts - since, right now, I must focus on listing all these new Roku apps for you! :-)


Before I get into the current list of channels, however, I would just like to point-out that the ongoing issue of "missing" reviews from the 'Roku Guide' website appears to have worsened (yet again) since my previous article for this blog. Over the last twenty-nine weeks, my 'Weekly RoundUp' posts have seen a total of 2,752 new channels added. Meanwhile, the number of 'Roku Guide' reviews being published has continued to fall short of the mark during that time. Looking at all of the articles they have published since the start of the year, there has been a total of only 767 new reviews added to their website. With a minimum of around another eighty-five "missing" reviews from the last week they remain more than seventy percent short of where they should be and, if this continues, there could be hundreds (if not thousands) more Roku channels with no corresponding independent review for me to provide a link from each of the relevant 'Weekly RoundUp' posts on my blog. I hope this shortfall is addressed soon because, as mentioned twenty-five weeks ago, the current situation isn't good for anyone connected to Roku: be they end-users, developers, bloggers like myself, or even Roku - whose platform provides the very source from which 'Roku Guide' generate their reviews! :-O


Still, back to the list... which, as always, will help you to identify the very latest apps that have been added to Roku devices in the UK. Other websites offering Roku channel listings will base their contents on the Roku USA Channel Store, which means they also include apps that are unavailable to UK Roku users. So, like I've said before... if you really want to know what's available channel-wise, for owners of Roku devices in the UK, you need to be reading this blog each and every week! ;-) :-)


With twice the number of active links to check out, not just for this week... but each and every post that has been previously published as part of my 'Weekly RoundUp' series over the last six and one quarter years, there's a *lot* to catch-up on. So, without further ado, here's my 'Weekly RoundUp' of all the new Roku channels released between 14th July 2019 and 20th July 2019:-

RHYTMIA THOUGHT LEADERS............................................COST: FREE [Roku Guide Review]

***FILED UNDER: "LIFESTYLE" in Roku UK Channel Store WHEN FIRST RELEASED***

PLEASE NOTE:- That, in addition to the above 'RHYTMIA THOUGHT LEADERS' channel whose name plus associated Roku Channel Store web address (URL) both conflict with the title displayed on the channel icon (aka 'HD Poster' image) for the app, there is another (similarly titled) new release by the name of 'Rythmia Thought Leaders', as featured further down this list, whereby the name and the corresponding URL ending bear the same spelling of the word "Rythmia" shown on the channel icon. Given the existence of that other app, which appears to address the "typo" which has (presumably?) been attributed (in error) to this version of the channel, I would expect one of them (most likely this one) to be withdrawn at some point in the (near) future. For the time being, however, since they both (currently) co-exist in the Roku Channel Store - each with their own unique identifier in the URL - I have decided to include the two channels as part of this 'Weekly RoundUp' post to make it easier for anyone searching for the apps by name (regardless of spelling) and link to the respective descriptions from the Roku website individually so that details for either one can be easily found online. Needless to say, if/when the developer sees fit to remove one (or both) of these channels, I will update this post to reflect any such change. In the meantime, I thought it best to point-out this peculiarity to make it clear that this was not due to any error on my part but, rather, a decision by the app developer! ;-) :-)

MRS NETWORK......................................................................COST: FREE [Roku Guide Review]

***FILED UNDER: "FILM & TV" in Roku UK Channel Store WHEN FIRST RELEASED***

PLEASE NOTE:- That, although this 'MRS Network' channel is FREE-TO-ADD to Roku devices and carries no warning to the effect that it "May require additional fees" to watch some (or all) of the content on offer, despite offering a 14-DAY FREE TRIAL for new customers, it then makes reference to a subscription fee of $3.99 PER MONTH in the wording of the channel description. So, while it might appear (on the surface) this Roku channel is among those apps that have no charges associated with them, it soon becomes clear - after more research - that it is *NOT* in fact FREE-TO-STREAM and really ought to have been more clearly flagged as such by the developer prior to submission! :-/

AFTER DARK HAPPY HOUR..........................COST: £1.49 (MONTHLY) [Roku Guide Review]

***N.B. THIS WAS UNCATEGORISED in the Roku UK Channel Store WHEN RELEASED***

PLEASE NOTE:- That, while this 'After Dark Happy Hour' channel for Roku devices can be found within the 'Just Added' category (i.e. genre) of the "Official" Roku UK Channel Store, no permanent category / genre had (at the time of writing) been assigned to the channel in the UK. If I somehow succeed in bringing this matter to the attention of the developer / content provider, I'd expect to see this app given a permanent "home" under 'Film & TV' or 'Special Interest' in the "Official" Roku UK Channel Store within a few weeks of so-doing. In the meantime, if you don't wish to trawl through the 'Just Added' category of the channel store to find it, I suggest you take advantage of the built-in Roku 'Search' feature to locate and install it. Using this method, you probably won't even need to finish typing the words "After Dark" before seeing the channel listed among the 'Search Results' displayed on the right-hand side of your television screen. Failure to assign a permanent channel store category for the UK within the next two weeks (however) would mean that, once it ceases to be part of the 'Just Added' category, it would no longer be listed in the channel store. So, if you think you're likely to want this channel, my advice would be to install it by the end of July (at the latest) because, if the necessary edits are not made to the Roku channel package (.PKG file) by that time, you will not see it there afterwards. Needless to say, if/when the channel is edited to include a permanent channel store category for the UK, I'll update this listing with details of whatever genre has been assigned to it. As mentioned above I'd expect this to be the 'Film & TV' or 'Special Interest' genre, but it could (possibly) wind-up in another category.







THE GRINDHOUSE CHANNEL......................COST: £1.49 (MONTHLY) [Roku Guide Review]

***N.B. THIS WAS UNCATEGORISED in the Roku UK Channel Store WHEN RELEASED***

PLEASE NOTE:- That, while 'The Grindhouse Channel' for the Roku platform can be found within the 'Just Added' category (i.e. genre) of the "Official" Roku UK Channel Store, no permanent category / genre had (at the time of writing) been assigned to the channel in the UK. If I somehow succeed in bringing this matter to the attention of the developer / content provider, I'd expect to see this app given a permanent "home" under 'Film & TV' or 'Special Interest' in the "Official" Roku UK Channel Store within a few weeks of so-doing. In the meantime, if you don't wish to trawl through the 'Just Added' category of the channel store to find it, I suggest you take advantage of the built-in Roku 'Search' feature to locate and install it.

*********************************************



Anyhow, like it or not, that is your lot this week and, while I don't yet have an exact figure for the new apps which were added to the "Official" Roku USA Channel Store in the same time-frame, at least you have another 95 NEW CHANNELS to keep you occupied while I check the numbers! :-) Meanwhile, for those still clinging-on to their NowTV device(s) for whatever reason, I'm afraid to say that, much like most weeks, there were zero new Roku channels (apps) added to the 'App Store' on NOW TV products... meaning the total number of available apps remains at just forty-one! :-(


Moreover, with no 'TVPlayer' or 'Prime Video' apps (to name but two) among the selection of channels found in the NOW TV 'App Store' - despite having dedicated channels for both of them on UK Roku devices - the range of NowTV-branded products continues to fall short of the mark in terms of current streaming needs for many in the UK. So, the best way to increase your choice of streaming services, is to swap any NowTV-branded products you own for genuine Roku-branded media players which can provide access to 7,400+ apps of content from a vast assortment of providers! :-D ;-)


In any event, hopefully everyone in the UK with a Roku player managed to find something they like within the ninety-five "public" channels outlined above... or else the "private" channels "gifted" to you via the companion Twitter Feed: @ukrokuchannels to this blog, at various points over the past six and one quarter years. However, if you didn't find anything to add to your own Roku channel selection from the vast assortment of apps on offer this week, you can always pay us a visit another time when, with any luck, there will be something more to your liking. After all there's no point installing every app because, when it comes to adding new channels to your Roku devices, IT'S YOUR CHOICE and, as with all things Roku... THE CHOICE IS ALWAYS YOURS!



*********************************************


As touched upon previously, you can expect my usual summary of all the goings-on (or not) in the (severely restricted) Roku Channel Store (aka "App Store") that features on NowTV devices to carry on in future posts. Meanwhile, whether you happen to own a Roku player, NowTV Box, OR BOTH, as I do... be sure to check my earlier posts (as mentioned previously) for details of all new additions to the "Official" Roku UK Channel Store in each of the two hundred and fifty-eight preceding weeks, then come back again in seven days' time for my next 'Weekly RoundUp'. Hopefully, by the time I make my next post, I may even have sorted out another (new) companion Twitter Feed to replace the now suspended: @ukrokuchannels account so there'll still be a presence on the social media platform via which up-to-the-minute info on Roku-related matters (here in the UK) is posted on a daily basis!



Until the next time, then...



That's all folks !!
