mDNS resolution on the Roku
Hello,
I'm experimenting with the Roku SDK, and one of the needs I have for my experiments is to have my Roku app being able to find some other devices on my network using mDNS.
I've already tried to use a .local hostname in my code, trying to reach a device which responds to mDNS queries for its .local name but it looks like the resolver of the Roku platform doesn't support that.
So, alternatively, I tried to find some class/method in the SDK which would allow me to perform some kind of mDNS queries.
In the BrightScript documentation, I've found a class called "roNetworkDiscovery" which is supposed to be able to perform mDNS service lookup, not hostname, but I could also manage with that.
However when I try to do CreateObject("roNetworkDiscovery") I am getting the error:

Re: mDNS resolution on the Roku
You probably found that in BrightSign documentation. While they use BrightScript like Roku devices, they don't both support the same components.

If you appreciate my answer, maybe give me a Kudo.
