Setting up Web Video Caster on the Roku Ultra

Web Video Caster doesn't run on the Roku Ultra itself. It runs on your phone, holds the M3U playlist, and sends each channel to the Roku Ultra, which plays it through a free receiver channel. Setup takes about ten minutes.

Setup guide

Web Video Caster is free to download. The Roku Ultra decodes 4K, so 4K feeds play at full resolution on a 4K screen. There's no contract and no card on file waiting to be charged again: plans are prepaid, with a 7-day refund window.

Stutter on sports: pick the HD version of the channel and move the phone closer to the router.
The channel list is empty: paste the M3U link again in full.
The cast stops when the phone locks: turn off auto-lock while you watch.

Settings that help on the Roku Ultra

Web Video Caster on Roku Ultra: Settings that help on the Roku Ultra

Use the Ethernet port if your box has one.
Turn on frame-rate matching in the box's display settings so 60fps sports don't judder.
Set the output resolution to match the TV; a 4K signal on a 1080p TV just adds work.
Auto-lock: turn it off on the phone while you cast a game.
