BrightScript UDP

Hi there!

I'm new to the brightscript language. After reading the reference pdfs. I have a question.

How can I send data to the roku throught UDP. I mean, I have my app on the PC and this need to send data to the roku.

What's the IP of the brightsign device, how can I find it? Or what do I have to do in brightscript to start a UDP server?

My roku will be running a script, with a Whlie(true) loop.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks!

Re: BrightScript UDP

BrightSign is a different division of Roku, this is the forum for the Roku video player. That being said, there are some examples in the 3.0 SDK on UDP communications for the Roku video player.

To find your ip, use the roDeviceInfo component. There is a thread from a few weeks ago on this subject.

Re: BrightScript UDP

In the v3.0 SDK, there is a socket_tests sample app that includes a udpEcho example....
