    BX100 Support: Movies on Us, and support in general

    I still have my 9 year old VUDU BX100 dedicated set-top box from when VUDU was still a new service. Is it supported anymore? Mine has Vudu client version 3.1.0 (rev 87147) on it, and UI Version 2.1.148765

    It still works for movies, but new features like Movies on Us don't appear to be supported, and the other apps on the box mostly don't work anymore. This includes various podcasts etc. that were supported separately from the VUDU movie service. Vudu took away YouTube Support in a firmware upgrade years ago. Most of the other apps are still there, but mostly don't work. Pandora is one of the few that still does work.

    The reason for my question though is the " Movies on Us presented by Straight Talk Wireless" that now appears on my box and the Vudu website. I can browse through the available titles on my BX100 box, but there appears to be no way to view them with the free with ads option. The only choice for viewing is the Rent/Own button which displays the rental and purchase prices. There's no other selection or play button for the free with ads version. Is this available somewhere, or am I not finding this because the firmware on my box doesn't support this new feature? Will it ever support this feature?

    The BX100 is supported, but is not getting new feature updates as it does not have sufficient RAM, etc to support the new UI v3 UI launched last year.
