Trying to find out if there is a way to control my tv while only using my laptop to do so.
After setting up and activating your Roku device/RokuTV, you can used Remoku to control the Roku. (can be used from within browser or as a browser extension.)
Instructions for Remoku can be found here http://help.remoku.tv/
The open source project notes can be found here https://github.com/gonzotek/remoku

A nice feature is the ability to use the laptop keyboard for searches, password entries, etc.
