Hello,

Is there a way to know what changed in the 4.8 release please? Videos that were once playing well are randomly stopping and starting again, so i wanted to know if it could be due to a modification to a component or of the video formats accepted.

Thank you.

Denis

I'm not sure if msg.isPaused is firing, as well as msg.isResumed, and msg.isListItemInfo doesn't work. Also, SetMessagePort(port) and SetPort(port) appear to do the same thing and are equally accepted now for roscreen. - with the previous firmware or firmware prior to this one, only SetPort worked for roscreen. At least, I got an error with my current code when running it on a roku 2 that was on older firmware. 🙂

Also if you have a roku 1 - it appears the newest firmware was never pushed to the boxes, so you can manually force an update to the firmware from May, 2012 for roku 1's.

IsPaused and IsResumed are definitely firing for roVideoPlayer and roAudioPlayer. I have several channels that use those that are working fine. Not sure about IsListItemInfo as I've always used the IsRemoteKeyPressed event to check for the info button.

Also, if you look at the dashboard on the sdkdocs site, there's a list of recent updates on the right hand side that may be useful: http://sdkdocs.roku.com/dashboard.action

Re: Last update

It could be an issue with my "elseif" code - where it is possible to show one event above, and miss the ispaused event as it's an 'else' which would be skipped. I haven't investigated too closely on that yet. Or some other coding error I created. lol
Thanks TheEndless.
