So this is probably a noob question, but how does one pass authentication parameters when fetching video content?

I'm currently using the SGDEX views to lay out a basic channel and using the sample videos Roku has provided e.g http://roku.content.video.llnw.net/...mp4

I've got a seedbox where I'm hosting the feed itself and the videos. To fetch the feed, I use request.AddHeader to pass authentication to the seedbox. I was wondering how to do that for each individual video- or whether this is the best approach. 

Also, is there a way to authenticate once and then fetch videos until a user logs off the channel? 
I read through https://developer.roku.com/en-ot/docs/references/brightscript/interfaces/ifhttpagent.md
But it leads me to believe that even if I create a cert on the seedbox, it won't run while the channel is sideloaded ( i.e no way to know if it's actually working before publishing)

Any pointers and tips would be most appreciated!

So I'm still stuck on this , but I did find something about HttpHeaders. I'm trying to do something like this now:

.

.

.

m.video = CreateObject("roSGNode", "MediaView")

httpAgent = CreateObject("roHttpAgent")

m.video.HttpHeaders = "Authorization:My authorization"

m.video.setHttpAgent(httpAgent)
(I'm using SGDEX, hence the MediaView)

.

.

.

m.video.content = m.details.content

m.video.jumpToItem = m.details.itemFocused

but this seems to have no effect. Maybe I'm just adding it to the wrong attribute, maybe it's not applicable for SGDEX. Any hints or nudges welcome as usual!

Are you seeing anything in debug while trying this? 
I'm not familiar with SGDEX but as far as secure video, have a look at this section about "Data bindings"
