I didn’t see any examples with this - but we’d like to be able to somehow stream a file from the source ftp server the media content resides on - is that possible? like changing the feed url to ftp://username:password@ftp.mysite.com:21 ?
I believe the Roku requires the server to support http range requests(because mp4 metadata necessary for playback is often at the end of a file), so ftp wouldn’t work.
ftp is not a supported protocol in ifHttpAgent.

Are there plans to support it at all in the future? As for mp4 metadata, if the server supports resume, then you can do a range request for any section of the file, including the end to be sent in a chunk. Just a thought.
There are not currently any plans to support ftp.
