Is it possible to integrate the IMA SDK to HTML based smart tv platforms? #79

Closed Shaharbad closed 10 months ago

Shaharbad commented 11 months ago

Hey everybody,

I was wondering if theres a method to integrate the IMA SDK to HTML based applications (LG Webos, Samsung TizenTV).

I did tried it on both platforms and got my applications rejected because of a blank screen (even though that on the simulator it was working fine).

When I did some research today I came accros this: https://groups.google.com/g/ima-sdk/c/ekChugmqT3E Seems like its being said that it's not supported.

But that comment is from 2019, I wonder if there is a method to make it work.

Thank you.

Hello @Shaharbad ,

Connected TV platforms are considered as "additional platforms" for the IMA SDK. These platforms support environments where IMA has a feasible SDK, however IMA does not actively test on these platforms, and certain features may not be supported.

I don't have any specific work-around for the blank screen issue you are talking about.

There are future plans to provide IMA support for these platforms, but I don't have any more information at this time.

You may want to reach out on the IMA technical forum for more information.

Thank you, Jackson IMA SDK team

Thanks for the response, can you also look into the tvOS IMA SDK sample? It's not working properly

I would recommend reaching out on the specific GitHub repository you are having issues with, and also identifying the sample/samples that you are having an issue with, and if there are any steps needed to reproduce the issue.
