Not sure if this is the right place for this question, but as it pertains to Roku it seems like it might belong here.

I have a Roku waiting at home in my mailbox and just learned that it doesn't have native support for streaming content directly from your computer. I'm seeing stuff on Google about a bunch of different programs that set up a media server your Roku can access.

Do any of you do this? If so, what program are you using for it?

Yes, Plex. Kind of sucks for streaming music, but it works well for video.

Thanks, I'll give Plex a shot.
