Roku is taking a lead on 4K, making ultra-high definition support the defining feature of its new Roku 4 set-top box. Someones got to be first, and while there isnt much 4K content around yet, Roku is helping TV-lovers find and stream it. How to play H.265/HEVC 4K content on Roku 4 when the newest Roku 4 wont support all 4K streaming? If you also have the intention to play H.265/HEVC on Roku 4, read on to get the solution.

At first, Roku 4 users need to know: 

Using the Roku 4 doesnÕt require a UHD TV, and theres a lot to like about it even with an HD set (which is how we tested it). The box has a quad-core processor and triple the RAM of the Roku 4, and performed perfectly in our testing. Combining its hardware with the existing quick-start feature for Netflix and Amazon meant we never had to wait more than a few seconds for content. The Roku 4 includes 802.11ac MIMO Wi-Fi, which is helpful for 4K streaming because it has strong throughput. Viewing 4K video requires an HDCP 2.2 HDMI port. The set-top box also includes optical digital audio for the first time, (something we werent able to test) and upscales SD video to 720p.

As far as we know, Roku supported media file formats are restricted to MKV (H.264), MP4 (H.264). H.265/HEVC 4K movie is not included here. So, how to prepare your H.265 videos for playback on Roku 4? Luckily, theres a workaround that can make your movies playable on Roku 4 - Encode H.265/HEVC to H.264 MP4 videos for Roku 4. 

To get it done, all you need is a reliable H.265 converter. Just like the way it is dealing with 1080p HD and 4K videos, the upgraded Pavtube Video Converter Ultimate is surely in the support of converting 4K H.265 Video in any format sand creating H.265/HEVC MP4 video faultlessly. (Here isreview)

3D Blu-ray is becoming the most sought-after thing. Well, if youve collected a pile of 3D Blu-ray discs, how to make full use of them? The most favorable way is to rip 3D Blu-rays to videos with 2D or 3D effect for playing, sharing widely. This guide will help you do the Ò3D Blu-ray to 2D TVÓ conversion. 

Q1: I have 3D glasses and a 3D blu-ray system connected to my TV via HDMI cable and optical cord, but I just have a normal 2D TV (not sure if its plasma or LCD). If I play 3D blu-rays on this, will they work? Will I be able to view it in 3D with the glasses?

Update: The answers so far, while appreciated, arent clear. Does No mean the discs wont work AT ALL, or just not in 3D? 

Q2: Can 3D Blu Rays be watched in 2D? So basically from now on I might as well start buying 3D blu ray movies for when I eventually get a 3DTV rather than having to go and rebuy the same movies again when I finally do get a 3DTV. But as of now I only have a 2D HDTV, so if I start buying 3D blu rays, will the PS3 be able to switch to 2D or will I have to buy both 2D and 3D movies?
