help playing stream
I have an app on my PC - XMTuner - which creates streams for my XM radio stations. I can listen to these streams with my Roku Soundbridge by giving them the path: http://192.168.1.98:19081/streams/...

I have live streams that have no file extension as part of the url that work fine. In fact the NPR example included with the Sample works fine.
No idea what no PHY in path is.
Agreed - the NPR example works fine and I used the NPR BRS script to create my GD BRS script.
The stream URL plays just fine on my local network where I also have a Roku Soundbridge - I just configure the URL as a preset for the Soundbridge.
Could there be something funny in the stream format where the RokuHD cannot deal with it?
JUST FIGURED IT OUT
It seems the stream output from the XM Tuner app is some form of WMA - when I set the type to WMA in the App it crashes XM Tuner when it connects.
I added the free TVersity server to convert the WMA stream to MP3 and now all works fine!!!
I think TVersity has some cool other uses too like streaming YouTube to my Roku - I will be playing with that later.
