Wondering what older model Rokus would have composite video outputs (and Ethernet inputs - my DSL modem/router doesn't have WiFi).
They don't sell new rokus with composite output anymore and I couldn't find one used so I just have an HDMI TO AV converter for mine.

If all you need is YouTube you could buy an older laptop with S-Video output (which a $1 adapter will make into composite), or get an old graphics card with S-Video output and put it into a desktop. I have such a card in a high spec windows 10 PC I use primarily for playing media.
