Roku won't play video from Secure Server?

You need to add the certificates file to access HTTPS content. Try adding the following to your roVideoScreen instance:

videoScreen.SetCertificatesFile("common:/certs/ca-bundle.crt")

Can I just say - "Many" thanks for a swift and 100% accurate reply.

Perfect!

Your help with certificates much appreciated....

Can I pick your brain with a related issue?

Background: I'm loading video, audio and images from a secure server and showing/playing them....

Just like when I was trying to play a video from a secure server - and it would not play - I noticed that if the first action (of a session) was to play an audio file from https I would have the same issue - no errors but file wouldn't load. I then noticed playing a video first - thus actioning the certificates command - would then make the audio file load OK. So I added the certificates command to the audio player instructions and that resolved that issue (audioplayer.SetCertificatesFile("common:/certs/ca-bundle.crt"))

Now the issue - I have also noticed SOMETIMES that if I try to load an image first I get the same issue - it won't load - and again, playing a video or (now) audio before trying an image means that issue goes away (because the certificates command has been actioned) and the images will load.

So I'm guessing just actioning the certificates command (on video or audio) is opening up access for the whole app? Why sometimes loading an image first works I have no idea, but in all occasions - even when an image won't load - if I play a video or audio (actioning the certificates command) images then load without problem.

So ... the question how do I add the certificates command to the images, so it doesn't matter which is attempted first (video, audio or image) and the certificate is active and the request will work?

Here is the image code:

canvasImg = CreateObject("roAssociativeArray")
canvasImg = [
{
url:imageUrl
TargetRect:{x:0,y:0,w:cw,h:ch}
}
]

canvas.SetLayer(1, canvasImg)
canvas.show()

roImageCanvas implements the ifHttpAgent interface, so you probably need to just call setCertificatesFile() on the canvas as well.

canvasImg = CreateObject("roAssociativeArray")
canvasImg = [
{
url:imageUrl
TargetRect:{x:0,y:0,w:cw,h:ch}
}
]

canvas.setCertificatesFile( ... )
canvas.SetLayer(1, canvasImg)
canvas.show()

Thanks so much. Appreciated.

Hi guys,

This certificates fix won't work for me.

I stream HLS-TS video thru https. (http works just fine)
I stored the videoplayer object in an array. (but I also tried this separately)
I have no idea why it won't work 🙂 please advice

this = {
        port:      CreateObject("roMessagePort")
        player:    CreateObject("roVideoPlayer")
        ...
        }

this.player.SetMessagePort(this.port)
this.player.SetCertificatesFile("common:/certs/ca-bundle.crt") 
this.player.SetContentList([CreateVideoContent(streamUrl,playbackTime)])
this.player.Play()

function CreateVideoContent(streamUrl,playbackTime)

content = {
        Stream: {             
            url: streamUrl,          
            format: "HLS"
            }
        }

return content
end function

P.S. Here is a debug log

StreamURL on CreateVideoContent: https://onlinestg.com:1988/streaming/114563/playlist.m3u8
Message type, index, message 9,-5: The format is not supported or the media is corrupt.
message content: invalid

It's hard to tell since you only posted fragments of your code, but I don't get any response from that server on port 1988. Also, I'm not sure if this matters but the format is normally specified as lowercase "hls" not "HLS".

Thanks for your reply. The URL works and sends me the playlist, though it works only inside of my VLAN. I am absolutely positive the link is OK.

Highly appreciate your help,

I'm having a similar problem trying to switch to streaming over https. The video link works fine on roku using http, but https returns in debug:

Unspecified or invalid track path/url.

I've added to my roVideoScreen instance the following:

screen.SetCertificatesFile("common:/certs/ca-bundle.crt")

The https link works outside of roku. I wonder if it could be the fact I'm testing this on a non-standard port? The non-standard port works fine for https connections getting XMLs and whatnot, but I don't see any other reason why this won't work for streaming mp4.. any ideas?
