dev-video.js

/*
In order to use this you'll want to grab the roku development sdk:
http://wwwimg.roku.com/static/sdk/RokuSDK.zip

After extracting, you'll want to enable developer mode:
http://sdkdocs.roku.com/display/sdkdoc/Developer+Guide#DeveloperGuide-52ApplicationSecurity

Now you can install the `samplevideoplayer` found in the extracted RokuSdk.zip folder

1. find your roku
node node-roku/test/find.js

2. install the sample app
in a browser go to the ip found in step #1 on port 80 (e.g http://192.168.0.8:80/)

3. upload samplevideoplayer.zip

4. run this script

by default when running this code it will launch a ted talk, but you can provide it with any sort of mp4 hosted online.

node node-roku/test/dev-video.js

or

node node-roku/test/dev-video.js http://video2.research.att.com/pub/United_Way_2011_1000kbps_640x380.mp4
