Thanks jaredsubman for the initial research and crack at this. I'm starting in on adding support to the channel and server tonight. If all goes as planned we could have initial support sometime tomorrow night or Tuesday (that's my goal.)
Handbrake seems like a great utility for doing the conversion and it's convenient that the Ipod Legacy preset matches the Roku so well. Start converting now so you'll have something to test when support is rolled out.
Now.. scrolling back through the forum:

Open another script in the /etc/init.d directory and make sure your script looks similar. Typically init.d scripts need to respond to a couple of arguments (start, stop, restart) and some distributions enforce a distro specific header. Make your script look like another script in init.d and you should be good to go.
DeftOne:
Yeah... you've discovered that little hack. I'm not sure if it's a feature or a bug either. I guess it's a feature in that I anticipated it. It's a side-effect of how my song cycling logic works. I agree with your description of how song cycling should work and will revisit that logic at some point after video support.
Dellsweig:
I haven't forgotten your directory depth problem. Still no progress on that front. I'll try to get you something new to test soon.
All:
Thank you for your enthusiastic support and for sharing what you've learned. You all make this a lot of fun to work on.
