What is PlayStation Vue?
For those that don’t know, PlayStation Vue (or PS Vue for short) is Sony’s live TV and cloud DVR streaming service. It gives you access to popular cable channels like:
- ESPN
- AMC
- Discovery
- Disney
- HGTV
- TNT
Basically, it replaces your cable subscription but with no contracts, more flexibility, and often at a cheaper price. The only catch is you need an internet connection rather than a cable input on your TV.
Once set up though, you can stream live sports, movies, shows, news – you name it. It’s perfect for cord cutters with a Roku.
Now let’s walk through getting it up and running…
Downloading the PlayStation Vue Channel
First things first – you need to download the PS Vue channel app:
- Press the “Home” button on your Roku remote to get to the home screen
- Select the “Streaming Channels” option
- Search for “PlayStation Vue”
- Click “Add Channel”
- Press “OK” to confirm
Once installed, you’ll have the app on your Roku.
Note: you need an active Roku account for this to work.
Activating Your Roku Device
Now on to the fun part – activation! Just 4 quick steps:
- Open the PlayStation Vue app on your Roku
- Follow the prompts to get your activation code
