Search results display:

  • Free Videos will be listed on Roku and can be played from Search section.
  • PPV videos will not be listed at all in Search section, but they are available for display using category, last uploaded videos etc.
  • Videos attached to a premium or a group channel will be displayed on Search section, but if the user does not have a valid subscription to a Premium or Group channel, they will not be played at all. A “Retrieving….” message will be displayed.

Note: this behavior is normal because it is describing a block for those users who don’t have valid subscriptions to premium or channel group. After a channel subscription will be purchased on TikiLIVE website, the user will be able to access Premium or Channel group VOD content through Search section as well.
