Video codecsiExplicitly supported video decoding formats. Use names such as H.264, HEVC, AV1 and VP9. Chip capabilities alone do not prove device playback support.

H.2648Owner's manualsupport.roku.com/article/share-media-over-usb-or-networkRead 11 October 2026Roku Media Player lists H.264/AVC for all devices. HEVC, VP9 and AV1 are listed for 4K video only, so they are not stored for this HD player. This player has no USB port, so the network media-server route applies.

Video decode limitsiPublished supported decoding limits. Profiles, levels and playback route matter. Output resolution and service support are separate.
