List of Third Party Direct Publisher Solutions

Many of you have seen the topic "List of Third-party Roku Channel Developers for Hire".  That list is primarily for those that create channels using the Roku SDK and BrightScript.  The purpose of this post is to provide a similar mechanism for those that provide solutions/software for Direct Publisher channel developers.  A formal list of those that help DP developers will allow new channels to publish quicker and cut down on the learning curve.

If you provide a solution, software, etc. to Direct Publisher channel developers, please add to this post what you can offer including costs, contact info, and anything else that would help a new channel developer.

    From my GitHub site, I provide FREE (Windows) software to assist DP channel developers with creating and maintaining their Roku JSON and XML channels, as well as, Amazon FireTV channels.  The software also assists in merging multiple JSON feeds into one.  This is important for those users of VIMEO.  In addition, I provide a tool to generate BIF (Trick Play) files that are required by ROKU.
