I would use two Home keypresses, just in case the channel paused, or somehow the video stopped playing, and the Roku screensaver kicked in. The first Home keypress exits the screensaver, the second goes back to the home screen. Then, instead of emulating keypresses to launch the channel, use the ECP...

You can broadcast SSDP M-SEARCH requests, or listen for SSDP NOTIFY responses, or send ECP requests to all hosts on the subnet.

I have some code in my VioletBug debugger GUI that uses all three methods: https://github.com/belltown/violetbug/blob/master/source/lib/VBDiscover.js

The reason the SmugMug Roku channel no longer works is that the channel uses version 1.2.2 of the SmugMug API, which was disabled on June 11, 2018, according to this announcement by SmugMug: https://dgrin.com/discussion/263631/upcoming-api-changes-please-read The SmugMug API version 1.3.0 still work...

I don't use this plugin, although from looking at the source code, the deploy functionality seems rather primitive (only supports one device, does not auto-discover Rokus on the local network). If you want deploy functionality with Atom you can use the roku-develop package.

Try it now.

I got correct channel display today (OTA channel list in canada) with v2.6. By mistake, in settings, i have entered a canadian postal code for Quebec city and there is no OTA broadcast choice anymore, but only satellite provider (no cable provider neither) for my postal code (in previous version, i...

With the legacy SDK support ending (and being removed from the Roku OS later) - is 'Whats On' running on borrowed time? Yes. Are you considering changing to SceneGraph? No. I have no plans to re-write What's On using Scene Graph. If Roku goes ahead with its plan to remove the legacy visual screen c...

The What's On Channel TV listings should now be working again. No need to update the channel on your Roku; all the changes were made on the server-end. However, you will have to go to the channel's Settings screen and re-enter your TV provider, then re-select any favorites you had previously selected.

Sorry for the problems you're having with the TV listings. I'll be away from my computer & Rokus until Wednesday, but I'll take a look at it when I return home.

I was hoping there was some Roku provided or Open Source library that already did that. Is there one?

Just bought a Roku 3 today.  I set it up, only to find that it can't play Spotify playlists! (I am a Spotify Premium subscriber.) What the heck is that about?  It is outragrous that Roku feature the Spotify logo on their box, to sell their product, when such a basic Spotify function as this is miss...

Another option, for anyone using the Atom text editor, is to use the roku-develop package, which will automatically discover Rokus on the local network, and create/deploy .zip files to any/all of those Rokus.
