Newbie Qestion on Development
New to creating channels but I have managed to get one with artwork etc uploaded to my Roku. I want to test my channel. The mp4 files I have reside on my local machine that was used for the development of the channel. My question is this, how do i enter the connection urlprefix? Do I enter my computer's ip followed by the path ("192.168.1.4/records/xml"), this is the location of the xml file on local machine, if not where would it point?
Thanks for any help.

First, you need a server running on your local machine; something like Apache. Then the URL would be something like http://192.168.1.4:8080/videos/test.mp4.

Re: Newbie Qestion on Development
Could NextPVR be used for something like this?
