Hello Guys,
I played little bit with videoplayer today and learned some stuffs...but I would be grateful to all of you who can help me with Scraping stuffs. I want to scrap videos from some public websites to my channel (live stream and/or recorded videos). Does any of you have a tutorial or example code that does what I am looking for? Thanks in advance.
Regards,

There's a few issues here. First off, Roku can't be seen as supporting piracy, thanks to the DMCA. So they cannot comment to help you if they're aware that you would be using copyrighted material in a manner that isn't approved by the copyrighted holder. And it isn't possible to give you specific, helpful answers without knowing which specific sites & pages you want to scrape videos from. The structure of nearly every site on the internet is different from every other one, so the specific method of scraping the video will be different too.
If the sites you want to use provide public domain or otherwise Free content(e.g. content licensed with a
Creative Commons license), then you could share the specific sites here and people could potentially give you specific, helpful answers. It's much too broad of a question otherwise.
I know this is probably not the answer you wanted.
