Live Stream from PC > To Server > Roku
I am trying to figure out the logistics on how to stream from my computer (webcam or whatever video source (live) ) to my web server that can then send it to roku stream. I could stream direct from home to roku but that will not be enough bandwidth. Any ideas?

The easiest way to get started is to use the free Flash Media Live Encoder (you'll probably need to purchase the AAC plugin) to stream to your server with RTMP, your server needs to be able to convert that to HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) and that is what your Roku will digest. Servers like Wowza media server and Flash Media Server, among others:

can do that.
