We are in the same boat. It is very disappointing to our team. Regardless of when our channel is finally reviewed, the lack of communication and professionalism in this area has forced us to find a different avenue to deliver video to our users' TVs. As the lead who championed Roku in my organizatio...

It appears that if the first stream the Roku selects returns a 404, that the player aborts, rather than trying another. Can somebody confirm?

Thanks Joel! I thought that was already the default, but looking back at the docs, I see it is probably not. You might pass long that the docs are little unclear as to the actual default value as they read: ...Default is "no-adaptation"... but, it also says: "full-adaptation".......

Hoping this post saves somebody the time and frustration I wasted: When requesting a secure, live HLS stream from Akamai (master.m3u8?[token]), Akamai will return two cookies ("_alid_, "hdntl") that must included in the subsequent requests for a particular stream's manifest (m3u8). Th...

Thanks for the reply. I've been tasting a few batches of videos today. So far, I've had the best luck with:

1280x720
3.2mbps average
Main, 3.1
H.264 (MainConcept)
Keyframe every 90frames

nm, this is still a problem.

video plays smooth for about 6 seconds and the starts to visually "stutter" while audio plays smooth.

any ideas?

fyi, changing the encoding profile to Main, 4.0 fixed the stutterring.

Movie playback for our custom channel is stuttering on a new Roku2 XS

Video is:
1280x720
3.5mbps
Baseline, 3.1
H.264 (MainConcept)
MP4 multiplex
Stereo AAC audio

This did not occur on our previous dev box (Roku XR).

Any thoughts? Thanks for the help.

In the Roku2, are we able to write to the MicroSD card with the current SDK?

Thanks for the help.

Thank you for the reply Kevin.

The lack of write capability seems to be contrary to your comments above and current SDK documentation. Was it removed? Are there plans to restore this functionality?

Thanks for yur help.

Anyone?

Has anybody ever successfully written to a USB drive?

I am not able to write a file to the USB drive. For example: req = CreateObject("roUrlTransfer") req.SetUrl("http://domain.com/test.txt") print req.AsyncGetToFile("ext1:/test.txt") print req.GetFailureReason() returns false Read-only file system My drive is not write-pr...

Thanks for the info Lyndon. That is helpful. One final question:

Is it possible for the HD210w to play a live video stream over the network? I cannot see an easy way from the documentation, but I was hoping perhaps there was a work-around.
