Roku Casting and AirPlay Mirroring Adult Movies and How to Sideload Other Online Content NOT Found in The Roku Channel Store
Roku Casting is a great way to watch adult content, movies and TV shows directly from the Internet on your TV
Big changes are happening with Roku. Roku private channels and Roku adult channels that have been on Roku since day have been sunset. This means some of your favorite private Roku adult TV channels no longer are on Roku.
Subscribing to adult TV channels on Roku was a great way to save money. Because these adult streaming channels were much less expensive to watch on Roku than on cable or satellite. And wow, they did have some excellent Roku private channels.
What Does This Mean for Adult and Private Roku Channels?
Even though Roku would prefer you only use the device with content from inside their public Roku channel store. This doesn't mean you can no longer watch adult movies or other 3rd party content from your favorite private channels on Roku. Now you'll just need to go about it a little differently.
If you have not yet learned how to use AirPlay, Mirroring, or Casting on your Roku, you are missing out on a great way to sideload and unlock your Roku to watch unlimited online content from outside their tightly controlled walled garden, affectionately known as the Roku Channels Store.
The nicest thing about mirroring and casting is the content you watch remains private. And unlike watching content directly on Roku's platform, they don't know what you are casting on your TV. And they also can't inject your sideloaded content with advertisements.
Casting opens your Roku to the entire World Wide Web of Video Content
The best thing about Roku AirPlay and casting is you are no longer limited to only the content Roku allows to be in their Channel Store. Unlike Android, which still offers the ability to sideload apps that are not in the Google Play Store, Roku is now the most restrictive media streamer. And they tightly control what they allow on their platform.
But fortunately, you can still cast or mirror any online content directly from a phone, laptop, PC, or tablet to your TV with Roku and almost every other media streamer.
You can use mirroring or casting to watch and wirelessly play music, movies, and TV shows right on your TV using a Roku, Apple TV, Fire TV, Chromecast, Nvidia SHIELD, or other media streamer. You can even adjust the volume using a TV or media streamer remote while a video is playing.
Now with newer televisions, you can cast directly to the TV itself without even needing to use an additional media streaming device if your TV already supports this.
Most recent televisions already support casting and mirroring through AirPlay or Chromecast. But check your TV manual and see if your television supports this.
What's the Difference Between Mirroring and Video Casting?
Mirroring
Mirroring takes the complete mirror image of what is on your device and then projects it on your TV screen. Apple uses its own form of Mirroring, which is called AirPlay and now AirPlay 2, which works really well with iPhones and iPads, and Mac computers.
Between the two, mirroring, especially AirPlay, works extremely well. The only downside is you can't use your mobile device while it is Mirroring the video on your TV screen.
This is especially useful when AirPlay won't work on certain websites.

Roku Casting
Casting works differently than mirroring. Instead of showing the same image on your TV from another device. Which works great for presentations.
Casting will send a video over to your TV and let you continue to use your phone or tablet simultaneously. The movie is playing on your television.
Not all sites support AirPlay and casting. In that case choose Roku Mirroring to watch the movie or show instead.
Chromecast uses casting on enabled devices. Many media streamers offer Chromecast to cast your content directly to your TV. Your phone can act as a remote to pause, fast forward, or rewind videos.
How to Cast or Use AirPlay Mirroring on Roku
Of the two formats, we found that AirPlay works great. It can now be found on more devices, including Roku.
Most current phones, tablets, computers, and televisions already support casting and mirroring directly through AirPlay or Chromecast.
This will let you use a Web browser, play the movie on your device, then after clicking a small TV icon, then that same movie along with the audio will play in full-screen right on your big screen TV.
AirPlay from a Mac, iPad, or iPhone to an Apple TV or Roku really doesn't get any easier.
