“I know this tv is works with my direct tv, but can I also use some of the Roku free stuff, also Prime? Guess my question is it hard to toggle between the two set ups? Perhaps have to manually switch? Anything different I would need to do during start up?”

It's so simple to toggle between DirecTV or any other cable/satellite system and the Roku, Prime, or other channels. I have U-verse, and "cable" (which would include DirecTV) is an icon on the screen, just like the various Roku channels. You can add or delete any channels you want. You simply click on what you want to use. I do use the U-verse remote when I'm watching TV through U-verse, although I have to initially click on the "cable" icon using the Roku remote, first. There is also an icon for "antenna" for people who watch local stations with an antenna vs. cable/satellite. Easy-peasy!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.In order to use the smart features of this TCL Roku TV, you would need to complete the guided setup. This includes connecting to the Internet via WiFi, creating a Roku account (completely free), and activating the TV (completely free). To switch from an input to a streaming channel, you would simply go to the Home screen and select what you want to watch. Hope this helps! Thank you, TCL Customer Support
