Maybe until Roku enables dlna/upnp there is no way of this working, but I have a hard time believing that it's impossible especially with the workarounds lately to get shared media on the Roku.
TVersity already works with Roku.
Well it works with the soundbridge/other roku products. But the digital video player? If so how do you get it working? I also found out that tversity also provides web based access via http://(tversity ip):41952 which through there you can also access rss feeds of your media. But anyways please explain how you have it working with the digital video player.

That's exactly how. The Roku DVP can access files through HTTP. So with TVersity running you can play music and video files via Roku by using the tversity ip address. Someone on here even built a client to parse the TVersity XML feed and create categories and file links. It worked ok. I've also created custom XMLs and played local files through Mediafly using TVersity as the web server.
The only thing I couldn't get to work was the live trans-coding.

Re: Using TVersity/ffdshow with Roku/My Media
So basically you're saying it could only be used to access local media that is already able to be played by roku? (meaning that it wouldn't be able to do much more than my media already does for me?) Do you know where I could find that client you mentioned? I'm not a roku expert or developer, but maybe I could try messing around with it. Although the ability to stream hulu/other sites with live transcoding into formats read by roku would be awethum, at the very least the ability to maybe transcode all of the vob format dvd files I have into a Roku-recognized format would be nice.

Re: Using TVersity/ffdshow with Roku/My Media
I'd love to give transcoding Hulu on the fly with vlc, but I don't know how to get the url to the actual flv stream. I'd be willing to bet Hulu wouldn't be too happy about this type of solution.

I'm trying to get tversity to work with my new roku dvp too. How do you access the ip address? Is there a Roku channel that you have to use?

What are you trying to do exactly? You're not developing a channel, correct? If you put the files in an rss feed you can load them with any of the RSS reader channels: Mediafly, CDNTwo, Sunimi. Though I remember Mediafly being weird about it sometimes.
So you if you created an RSS feed, your enclosure would reference your local ip and file name: http://192.168.1.4:9000/123.mp3 -- Then put this out on the net somewhere (dropbox, personal website, etc) -- and then add that feed to one of the rss reader channels.
It's been awhile since I've done this, but you can get the link to the file from the TVersity web app.

Re: Using TVersity/ffdshow with Roku/My Media
Just to verify these methods only give access to roku compatible local media and does not enable transcoding/hulu etc, right? So basically same function as my media/roksbox
