If you\u2019ve ever wanted to make your own Roku channel \u2014 showing your live broadcasts or 24\/7 TV station stream \u2014 it\u2019s easier than you think.
You can do it directly using your RTMP Server<\/strong> account.<\/p>\n

In this article, we\u2019ll explain step-by-step how to use your existing Wowza-powered stream to create a fully functional Roku app that you can test on your device or even publish to the Roku Channel Store.<\/p>\n

\n

Step 1 \u2013 Locate your HLS link in the RTMP Control Panel<\/h2>\n

Every streaming account on RTMP-Server.com<\/strong> includes multiple playback options, such as RTMP, HLS, and HTML5 players.
For Roku, you\u2019ll need the HLS (.m3u8)<\/strong> link.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s how to find it:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n

    Log in to your Wowza RTMP Control Panel<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  2. \n

    On the left menu, click Widgets & Links<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  3. \n

    You\u2019ll see several playback options \u2014 copy the one labeled HLS (HTTP Live Streaming)<\/strong> or M3U8 Link<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    It should look similar to this:<\/p>\n

    \n
    \n
    \n
    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
    https:<\/span>\/\/5caf24a595d94.streamlock.net:1937\/ajewxuqkam<\/span>\/ajewxuqktm\/playlist<\/span>.m3u8
    \n<\/span><\/code><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

    That\u2019s your live stream link, and it\u2019s fully compatible with Roku, Smart TVs, and mobile devices.<\/p>\n

    \n

    Step 2 \u2013 Prepare your Roku developer environment<\/h2>\n

    You\u2019ll need a Roku device and a free Roku Developer account.<\/p>\n
