Hello everyone.

I want to play videos from https://dlive.tv on my Roku Ultra unit. In order to do this, I need to go the website and start the video there. Once it starts playing, I can click an icon in the address bar and watch the video on my TV.

Unfortunately, when I go to this particular site, Firefox changes the protocol from "https://dlive.tv/*" to "dlive:dlive.tv/*". Then I get the message:

Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because one of the following protocols (dlive) isn't associated with any program or is not allowed in this context.

1. You might need to install other software to open this address

"dlive" is by Discord, and I have the Discord app installed on my phone. Not sure what to do next.

Hi

So that I can try this here, is there a full channel address I would be able to access?

Hi

I have tried that address in the new Firefox Preview browser that we are working on (and is available from the Google Play store) as well as in Firefox Focus and the page does open.

I recomend that you give Firefox Preview a try.

Ok. I downloaded Firefox preview and I can open the site. However, it doesn't appear to be able to share to a Roku unit.

Hi

I do not believe that Roku support has been in place for some time. This is something that the Roku support team will be able to help you with.
