## :pushpin: Installation
```
git clone https://github.com/milesrack/roku-rickroll.git
cd roku-rickroll
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
python3 roku-rickroll.py
```
## :pushpin: Usage
```
usage: roku-rickroll.py [-h] [-d] [-t TARGET] [-a] [-r [REPLAY]]
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-d, --discover Discover Roku devices on the local network
-t TARGET, --target TARGET

-a, --target-all Target all Roku devices on the local network
-r [REPLAY], --replay [REPLAY]

```
This not work 100% of the time (errors, YouTube promotions/messages, latency) but re-running the script or slightly increasing values for `time.wait()` usually fixes these issues.
## :pushpin: TODO
|Status|Task|
|----------|--------|
|:heavy_check_mark:|Initial commit|
||Discover Roku devices via SSDP rather than scanning port 8060 on 255 hosts|
||Possibly cast locally stored videos to the Roku (no ads, less latency)|
**NOTE:** Do not use this on people's TVs without their permission. I am not responsible for what you do.
