Can roku play rtmp streams?

Has anyone found a way to get the Roku to play rtmp streams? I have some streams I want to make a channel for but cannot figure out how to play them since they are rtmp.

Re: Can roku play rtmp streams?

RTMP isn't supported. To play RTMP you would need to transcode the stream before sending it to the Roku. (VLC, FFMpeg, Wowza all can transcode RTMP) - you might try one of the home media server Roku channels with transcoding too.
