Welcome

Thanks for purchasing a Roku SoundBridge! We hope you enjoy using it as much as we’ve enjoyed creating it.

SoundBridge lets you play music you have stored on your PC or Mac anywhere in your home. It also lets you access many of the thousands of Internet radio stations that broadcast on the web.

Roku’s media players are designed to be upgradeable in the field, and we are always working on improving the software for our products. Your SoundBridge has a menu option to check for, and automatically install, software updates. We recommend you try this a soon as your system is set up to make sure you have the latest software. (See the “Getting Started” section for more information.) We also recommend that you go to www.rokulabs.com to register your purchase, so we can notify you when a new update is available. Enjoy!
