its a rebadged Roku one

Unconfirmed reports claim Plex has been installed to it

The Now TV box has been found to still provide access to the Roku development mode. This allows you to sideload one developer version app to your device. Not all apps are made available in this way but Plex is!

How to install Plex onto your Now TV box: http://www.digitalworldz.co.uk/roku-605/378892-now-tv-box-plex.html

I ordered one before I saw this post so now I might not send it back ! I was going to because I was looking for how to free it from sky by hacking it and found nothing
 
re: NOW TV Box £10 inc - Plex install guide

re: NOW TV Box £10 inc - Plex install guide

What channels can you load on plex is it the same as xbmc
 
Re: NOW TV Box £10 inc - Plex install guide

There is a section to enter a voucher code, has anyone seen any vouchers for Sky Now?

But the box alone for plex is an absolute steal!
@jhdetailing, yes PLEX is basically a media player that will stream all your movies, programs, etc.

I would imagine it works very well too, they managed to get plex onto the APTV3 with quite good results... so I would say it would work very well on the Roku one box (sky now rebranded it), but as the OP has said it has not been confirmed.

Hi, on the site it sshows bbc iplayer and 5 on demand, does anyone know if itv player and 4 od are on it ?
 
Re: NOW TV Box £10 inc - Plex install guide

I thought about getting one of these, but don't have a need for it. but if plex is able to be installed on it then im in. keep us updated on how the install goes

btw, does this have Ethernet on it? deal breaker for me if it doesn't, and going by the pics it doesn't look like it
