streamplayer scripting?

[Keith Ohlfs]

I have a large disk based HD movie library that I want to play with stream
player on HDTV's in my house. It works great, but the process is to start
streamplayer and then go through the darn "set file" dialog to select a
movie. This is very cumbersome and clumsy. I would love to create some
.roku scripts which automagically launch the stream player with the correct
HD files open. The Roku ECP docs don't mention any ECP scriptability for
stream player. Can I send it ECP commands? Does anybody know?

Thanks,

Keith

Not yet. StreamPlayer is still in a pre-release state, and doesn't have a
lot of functionality that our finished applications do. ECP is among the
items on the to-be-done list, I'm afraid.

Best,
