Could you provide a little more insight into how one would access the New Camera Information page with a web browser, please.
Also, I have set up the Screensaver but it doesn't appear to be working. When I Preview all I see is a black screen. Any suggestions on this issue?
Sure. First of all, the screen saver. When on the screen saver settings, make sure you check the camera you want to show as screensaver (like in the following picture) and then press "Save screensaver" button.

For the "easy add" feature, open the "easy add" in the roku application, and while on that view, on your computer browser, open the address shown (just type it in the address bar in your browser). This will open a page with a form for camera information. Fill it up and press save and the new camera will be saved. Note, this only works if your computer and the roku are connected to the same network.
The way it works is that while on that view screen, there is a webserver running on your roku that will serve the page with the camera form in your browser. As soon as you press back on the remote and leave the view, the webserver is stopped. In future versions I'll include on the same web page a backup and restore feature.
