• It uses an HDMI connection, not sure if your older TV has one. Reply from Grok: The Roku device + remote will turn your older non-smart TV into a “smart” one for streaming (Netflix, YouTube, etc.). • You’ll likely still need your old TV remote (or the TV’s physical buttons) to turn the TV on/off, adjust volume, or switch inputs. • Some newer Roku voice remotes (like the Voice Remote Pro) have IR TV controls that can be set up during initial Roku setup to try controlling power/volume on many common TV brands — even older ones — if the codes match. But success varies a lot with very old TVs (pre-2010s models often don’t work well or at all for this). • Roku remotes are not compatible with non-Roku brands in the sense of full TV replacement; they’re for controlling the Roku hardware.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes you sure can as long as the TV has an HDMI port. The whole point of our Roku Devices is to turn TVs into Roku smart TVs and non smart TVs are the exactly the reason Roku started making devices.
