Installation and use of the Delete utility
For the Roku HD1000
Revision 1.0 | January 19, 2004

Introduction
This document covers the installation and use of the Delete utility for the Roku HD1000.
The Delete utility allows you to delete files from writable Media Sources, including the Built-in
source. Please note that in version 1.5 of the Roku HD1000 software, memory cards inserted
into the HD1000’s front-panel slots are not writable, in order to protect the data on the cards.
However, you can use the Delete utility to remove files from the HD1000’s internal memory,
or to remove files from a shared network folder.
The Delete utility can be placed on a flash memory card or a shared network folder, or may be
installed directly into the HD1000’s internal memory.
Installing the Delete utility on a flash card or network share
Installing the Delete utility on a flash card or network share is as simple as copying a file with
your computer. In the same downloadable package as this document, you should see a file
called “delete.roku”, and a file called “delete.roku.png”. Just copy the files onto a flash card or
into a shared folder that you have made available to the HD1000.
When the flash card is inserted or the shared folder is mounted and the corresponding Media
Source icon is highlighted in the Main Menu, you will see the Delete utility appear in the
“Roku Applications” section of the Main Menu.
Installing the Delete utility in the HD1000’s internal memory
To install the Delete utility in the HD1000’s internal memory, you will need to use the Copy
utility. If you have not downloaded or installed the Copy utility yet, you should do so now
and follow the instructions provided with it to make it available to the HD1000.
Follow the steps outlined in the section above to place the Delete utility onto a flash card or a
network share. Insert the card or make the network share available*.
1. Launch the Copy utility by highlighting its icon in the Main Menu and pressing the
Select key on the remote. You should see the following screen:
*If the share was already connected to your HD1000, you may need to re-scan it for the Delete utility to show up.
Just highlight the corresponding icon on the left of the Main Menu, and then press the Select button on the
remote.
