SSDP to my Roku

[dynamitemedia]

i am trying to ping my roku to see if its online so i can send some remote commands to it via telnet...

what i have so far is this BUT its not coming back anything:

#include <AutoItConstants.au3>
#include <Constants.au3>


$getInfo = _GetDOSOutput("M-SEARCH * HTTP/1.1" & @CRLF & "HOST: 239.255.255.250:1900" & @CRLF & "ST:roku:ecp" & @CRLF & "MAN:""ssdp:discover""" & @CRLF & "MX:10" & @CRLF & @CRLF)
ConsoleWrite($getInfo  & @CRLF)


Func _GetDOSOutput($sCommand)
    Local $iPID, $sOutput = ""
    $iPID = Run('"' & @ComSpec & '" /c ' & $sCommand, "", @SW_SHOW, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD)
ConsoleWrite($iPID  & @CRLF)
    While 1
        $sOutput &= StdoutRead($iPID, False, False)
ConsoleWrite($sOutput  & @CRLF)
        If @error Then
   ConsoleWrite("you have a error"  & @CRLF)
            ExitLoop
        EndIf
        Sleep(10)
    WEnd
    Return $sOutput
 EndFunc   ;==>_GetDOSOutput

Also all the info i want is returned the IP address that should come something back like this:
 

Location: http://192.168.1.134:8060/

any idea(s) what i am doing wrong here?

Ask a Mod to move it to the General Help and Support forum.

The Example Scripts forum is "A forum to share your cool scripts, User Defined Functions and AutoIt-based applications with others."

This probably doesn't have any use to you, but it might be worth checking out. http://letstalk-tech.com/roku-error-014-connect-roku-3-wi-fi-network/

thanks it is connected i just cant seem to figure out how to find the IP /Location of it...

If the Roku is on your local network, you can navigate to your router configuration page in the browser, It is possibly 192.168.1.1, Then if you navigate to DHCP client table, you may be able to find the IP of your Roku.
