LiveStreaming on Roku 2

Hi everyone.
I just acquired a Roku 2 box and am in the process of creating a new private channel. I also have a free channel at livestream.com. How can I webcast the program I have running at livestream to my roku channel?. I made some research and found that someone was using VideoLan (vlc) but there was not enough information for me to duplicate the process? (wowza and Ec2 cloud is not a good choice for me right now since I am a student and don't have much finance available).
Thanks for any help.

Re: LiveStreaming on Roku 2

That's probably a question better asked of the guys at Livestream. You may be able to use their API to access an HLS stream of your channel that Roku can play.
