Blue iris roku app

I have been using IP Camera Viewer Pro for the Roku.
Roku
It cost about $5.00.
You can test with the free version first it only let's you setup one camera.
See example on setup from one of my cameras. Once you setup one camera you just need to copy an existing camera give it a different description and change the camera Stream URL to point to the BI new camera short name.
I point to my Blue Iris IP and port not directly to the cameras. I couldn't get many of my cameras working in IP Camera Viewer but pointing to BI they all work.
You can even point to a camera group name and display the group of cameras.
You can also set it up so it is the Roku screensaver if you want to display your cameras.
Hope this is helpful.

Another tip if you purchase the Pro version don't delete the App or you need to purchase it again. I have it installed on three Rokus.
That's great! Thanks everyone, so here is a quick recap highlighting my questions and what i needed:
1. turn off "Use secure session keys and login page"
or
in Blue Iris, add it to the Limit access by IP address list, starting with a carat (i.e. ^192.168.10.111, where 192.168.10.111 is the IP address of your Roku).
2. stream url= camera = /mjgp/Cam7? ( "Cam7" is the short name of camera or of group you created in blue iris in this example)

For me the default quality was pretty blurry so for those who need it, add “?q=90” at the end to bump quality up. 90% seems to be good enough for me but you can adjust accordingly
I Just wanted to thank you for this post. I have an underwater camera in my koi pond that I wanted to use in IP Viewer on the Roku. I like the screensaver option. Would be nice to walk through the living room and see the fish doing their thing. The camera alone would not work with the IP Viewer. I had previously purchased the software, but hadn't taken the time to learn it. But this post was enough to get the koi cam working on the Roku app and that's all I wanted. So thank you!
Same. Would love to get an audio enabled RTSP stream on Roku but from what I’ve heard they don’t support that
