Has anyone here got a ROKU?

If you do, have you tried Roksbox with your Snap Server?

I have a sonos system that I use with my snapserver.

I had never heard of that unit.

In my case, I am looking to stream HD video, not just audio (I think that is what that unit does?).

You might want to start a message thread and give some details about the unit and how you have it set up etc (a tutorial type thing). Some of the people here might like to do the same and find it very useful maybe.

The ROKU and that APP I provided a link for is supposed to be able to stream Video, Audio, and Pictures from a webserver. Problem is, I am totaly illiterate on the software and webserver and those type of networking kind of things. I am a hardware guy and only know enough about local networking to be dangerous.
