Is it possible to execute a bat file from the appmain.brs. Have a simple channel on my roku that when selected it needs to start a stream from my server. The file is a m3u8. It is will be created once the channel is selected. Was wanting to put a call to a bat file that will check to see if the file exist, if not start a script that will result in the creation of the file and then the stream will start.
Thanks for an advice

The most straightforward way to do this would be to set up a cgi-bin script in your web server that would call the bat script. Your Roku channel would call the cgi-bin script via http.
