The Roku Channel is no longer a sleepy add‑on; with 560 + live FAST channels and tens of thousands of on‑demand titles, it now ranks among the top five streaming destinations in the U.S. Yet the platform still gives viewers almost no universal “Download” button. If you travel, live in a weak‑signal area, or just fear your child’s favorite cartoon might vanish overnight, you’ll hit a wall fast. My own fix is a mix of direct downloaders, DVR‑style recorders, and the occasional screen grab. This guide walks you through each option—what works today, what breaks tomorrow, and how to stay on the right side of the law.

How to download from Roku Channel?

Can I Download Roku Videos?

Officially, No. There is no way to download videos from the Roku Channel for you to watch offline because Roku does not come with a built-in download or recording function directly to the device.

Where you watch
Built‑in offline option?
Nuance that trips people up
Roku devices (box, stick, TV)
No. MicroSD slots cache apps only.
Even a 128 GB card won’t hold a single movie.
Roku mobile app (iOS / Android)
Limited. A short list of purchased/rented movies can be cached for ~30 days.
Free FAST titles can’t be saved; licenses expire sooner once you press play.
Partner premium apps
Depends. Use the provider’s native app, not Roku’s UI.
Example: Starz lets subs download in its own app; the same title inside Roku’s hub streams only.
Note: If you want most Roku Channel content offline, you need a third‑party tool.

2. Offline viewing Roku without ads

The batch download mode streamlines your download process by enabling multiple Roku downloads in a single go. If you wish to download multiple episodes of a favourite Roku Channel show, Batch Mode will save you the hassle of downloading them individually.

How to Download Roku Channel Videos with StreamFab?

By the way, if you’re using StreamFab for Roku, you’ll be glad to know it supports other services too—like SkyShowtime (see our guide on how to download SkyShowtime videos) or Discovery Plus (learn can you download on Discovery Plus in that post). But here, let’s stick to Roku-specific steps…

Step 1

Install StreamFab Roku Channel Downloader on your PC. Launch it and find the Roku Channel service in VIP Services.

2. DVR Recorder—PlayOn Home/Cloud

 
What it is?
“virtual set‑top box” that plays the stream in a hidden browser and records it frame by frame into MP4. Windows only; Mac users need a VM.
PROS
 
Works with dozens of other services—Hulu, Max, Prime Video—so one license covers many needs.
CONS
 
Quality caps at 720p for most Roku titles; HDR is out.
Real-time wait can be painful if you need ten episodes fast.

Setup in four bullets

Step 1: Install PlayOn Home → add Roku credentials.

Step 2: Queue a movie or choose Record All Episodes for a series.

Step 3: Recording happens in real time; leave the PC on overnight.

Step 4: MP4 drops into your folder; cast it back to Roku via PlayOn Cloud or copy to your phone.

3. Last-Resort Screen Capture (OBS, etc.)

When both methods fail—usually due to new DRM—screen recording still works:

Step 1: Open Roku Channel in a browser or mobile emulator.

Step 2: Start OBS; capture the window and system audio.

Step 3: Hit Record and play the episode.

Note: 1:1 recording time, possible DRM black screens, and the murkiest legal footing.

FAQs

1. Can I download from Roku with online Roku video downloaders?
