livestream.com to Roku

Around two days ago livestream.com said that it is offering its streaming services to Roku via its channel.

I tried to contact them to provide me their source code so that I'll create my own Roku channel to stream from livestream.com but they said that they cannot provide it.

The announcement two days ago is a green light that streaming from livestream.com to Roku is possible.

How do I get about it?

Thanks

Re: livestream.com to Roku

From their press release..

"Event producers can now broadcast their events to millions of Roku viewers by streaming with Livestream's hardware, free software or mobile app, without any further integration or app development."

It sounds like you asked them for the source code they developed, so you can use it to create your own version of their channel to release for viewing your content, and perhaps only your content. Why would anyone want to give that away just for the asking?

Meanwhile, with them now releasing their own official channel, I doubt they'd want you repackaging a stream that utilizes their service into your own offering. That's what the announcement was for.
