MultiLive Channel SDK

Greetings to all,

I have downloaded the multi-live-channel sdk https://github.com/rokudev/Multi-Live-Channel, in this version the playlist is embedded in the file: components/config.brs which forces you to package everything together, what changes should I make to the SDK receive the list from a remote xml file?

Thanks,

Kind Regards.

    It's a fairly trivial change you'll have to make, to read a JSON file with roUrlTransfer and then parseJSON() it. (I recommend doing JSON instead of XML, because easier).
    There is only one hindrance i foresee and that's

    I think m.array is not used outside the next line so you can as well hard-code the behavior based on knowing if you have 1 or >1 lines. Or you can do it right but will have to learn more details on RSG.
