Roku Developer Program

[jamesrdelaney]

Hi

I have a Roku 4200 running on the locat network:
172.150.1.195

I am timing out when I try to telnet on port 8060
telnet 172.150.1.195 8060

And I get nothing using a GET to from the browser
http://172.150.1.195:8060/query/apps

This used to work for me.

Has there been some restriction added in later firmware?

Thanks for any advice
James

You could try taking it out of Developer Mode then re-enabling Developer Mode.

What's 8060 for?

8060 is the ECP port. I don't think you can telnet to 8060, so that failed connection is probably expected.

@jamesrdelaney - is the Roku PING-able?
Is the client you are trying to connect from also on 172.150.1.*?
What's the firmware# ?

Now that's curious. I actually tried it before posting and got a failed connection. Testing just now, I got the same. I'm testing on my Roku 4, though, so maybe it's locked down in 7.0...?

EnTerr, what firmware are you on? I couldn't connect to any of three different boxes running three different versions of firmware.

You guys are scaring me. I doubt the Co will do something so dickish as intentionally blocking the whole of ECP w/o warning. Does "Roku by Roku" app work with your players? How about remoku.tv and other apps?

When I try to telnet to a roku4 on 8060 it sitas there, control-C returns -
HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request
Server: Roku UPnP/1.0 MiniUPnPd/1.4
Content-Length: 0
Connection to host lost.

So it probably 'connects' or it wouldn't know it was a roku server, but just doesn't handshake. 8060 does the same thing on my roku3 too.

Yes, ECP still works. I'm using PuTTY to try and connect, so maybe it's sending a character the telnet connection doesn't like.
