No way to turn it off, we've asked. This has broken our Akamai caching more than once.  Submit a feature request, the more people who complain the more likely it might get attention.

I found my old SDK1 code for this. You can use `filename`  as a URI with a poster and you should see the image. filename = "tmp:/test_file.jpg" b64 = <b64 String for a JPEG> ba = CreateObject("roByteArray") ba.FromBase64String(b64) ba.AppendFile(filename)  canvasItems.push({url:f...

When I tried this a couple years ago, I had to save the decoded image to a tmp file then load that into a poster.  But I don't recall any details, sorry.

also, it looks like you are writing to a file with no name?

I'm curious, where did you get the NDK? Because it is (was) only available to partners. Hmmmm.

We ran into this when we instantiated RAF at application startup. Roku suggested we instantiate RAF inside a long running task that starts when content is requested.
This seems to have resolved the issue.

search the forums and google, you can sideload using HTTP

Off the top of my head: You can download the HLS manifest as a text file in parallel with the player. Parse it and perform calculations to figure out how many segments there are, and how long each one is. Then you can use the "downloadedSegment" field to track which segments are in the buf...

@tylersmith that’s awesome, thanks

yes you can run a task for the lifetime of the application. For analytics, it might make sense to respawn it every time a video starts. You should see some kind of debugging info when a sideloaded app reboots, but the real answer is no, there is not a useful crash log available (at least not to deve...

My guess is that you designed your layout using HD resolution, and the Premiere+ is not scaling correctly. Premiere+ has an FHD UI (1920x1080), where I believe the 3 has an HD UI display (1280x720). This means the menus and screens and stuff (not the video itself) are using different resolutions. Tr...

In our scenegraph app, after about an hour of HLS live stream playback, a regular lookup on the global node crashes the app. This code is in a task that runs an http request at periodic intervals. BRIGHTSCRIPT: ERROR: roSGNode.<lookup>: Rendezvous aborted for Node: pkg:/components/cpc/metrics/tasks/...

Your logging "fix" is unreal! I wonder if that works in a production channel. It is very difficult to get any useful diagnostics for video failures. For example, one issue was our segment requests were returning HTTP 403 errors, but Roku surfaces it as that useless -3 error code. Only by s...

I've done that course. I also made a comment at the end of the thread you made announcing that course. It help me a lot and I've even referenced it when putting this together, but I'm not seeing where I deviated from that to cause this error.  Aw man, I wished it helped with this issue. SceneGraph ...
