Roku Control
Control Roku devices over your local network using the External Control Protocol (ECP). No authentication, cloud services, or complex setup required - just local HTTP commands.
Prerequisites
Roku device on the same network as OpenClaw Roku's IP address (can be discovered automatically)
Setup (First Time)
1. Discover your Roku: python3 scripts/roku_control.py discover This will show all Roku devices on your network with their IP addresses. 2. Save the IP address: Note your Roku's IP (e.g., 192.168.1.100) for use in commands. 3. Test connectivity: python3 scripts/roku_control.py --ip 192.168.1.100 info

Device Mapping
Store your Roku IP in references/roku.json: { "living_room": { "ip": "192.168.1.100", "name": "Living Room TV", "model": "Roku Ultra" }, "bedroom": { "ip": "192.168.1.101", "name": "Bedroom Roku", "model": "Roku Streaming Stick+" } } Then reference by friendly name in conversations.
Troubleshooting
"No Roku devices found" Ensure Roku is powered on and connected to network Check that OpenClaw and Roku are on same network/subnet Some routers block SSDP discovery - try manual IP if known Verify Roku's network settings in Settings โ Network "Connection timeout" Verify IP address is correct Ping the Roku: ping <roku-ip> Check firewall isn't blocking port 8060 Roku may have changed IP (use DHCP reservation) "Key not working" Some keys only work on Roku TVs (volume, power, inputs) Volume keys require HDMI-CEC or Roku TV Power commands may not be supported on older devices Check references/remote-keys.md for compatibility App won't launch Verify app is installed: run apps command Use correct app ID (case-sensitive for name matching) Some apps require additional authentication in their own UI Discovery not finding device Try manual IP if you know it: check router DHCP leases Roku's IP is shown in Settings โ Network โ About Set static IP or DHCP reservation for reliability
Movie Night Routine
Combine with Govee lights skill: # Dim lights for light in "living room" "tv lights"; do python3 govee-lights/scripts/govee_control.py brightness "$light" 15 python3 govee-lights/scripts/govee_control.py temp "$light" 2700 done # Launch streaming app python3 roku-control/scripts/roku_control.py --ip 192.168.1.100 launch Netflix # Set comfortable volume python3 roku-control/scripts/roku_control.py --ip 192.168.1.100 key VolumeDown
Notes
ECP protocol works entirely over LAN (no internet required) No authentication or API keys needed Commands are instant (local network speed) Multiple Roku devices can be controlled independently Works with Roku TVs, streaming sticks, and boxes Power-on commands not supported (ECP limitation - Roku must be awake) For power-on, use HDMI-CEC or network wake features if available
Limitations
Cannot power on a fully-off Roku (ECP only works when device is on) Volume/power commands limited to Roku TVs or HDMI-CEC setups No feedback on success/failure for some commands Text input is character-by-character (slower for long searches) Discovery requires SSDP (some networks block multicast)
