Connecting xbmc to the Roku through Roksbox should be as simple as pointing the roksbox to the proper file path identifying the xml file to be parsed. However... I cant seem to find the http file path to point to!
I'm a noob to Linux and also xbmc. It would be great to make my Roku play local media files from my xbmc!
Can anyone help?

Hi KirkGee,
Are you still having problems? I was able to get Roksbox connected to XBMC the other day. Able to stream and seems to work pretty well. I have not gotten the movie info that is scraped in XBMC to display in roksbox yet and Im not clear how to get this working yet.

Hi Whoppr,
Can you please elaborate how you linked XBMC from PC to Roku player. Can we play internet tv shows from XBMC in roku using the above link or just the local files on PC?
thanks, saty

I am really curious how you managed to pull this off. I was able to log into my xbmc web interface from roku, but did not know where to point the folders.
