Roku support #362

Closed vgrafe closed 8 years ago

vgrafe commented 8 years ago

Hi there,

I can see on the config/devices files that many roku devices seem supported, but there is no explanation about how to compile/package the code in something accepted, as Roku does not allow webviews.

Looks like BBC's Roku iPlayer is built on top of TAL but I can't find any information about how to achieve this. Is there something I missed?

vgrafe commented 8 years ago

Oh well, just found my answer in #57. Closing my issue and contacting Roku. Wish me luck!

We are exploring at the possibility of using TAL for Roku development. Any luck post reaching out to Roku team or should we stick to Brightscript ?

No luck. It looks like Roku won't change their mind about Brightscript being a requirement for apps.
