well that is all you do except in addition there are two spots (maybe 3 going back over 4 years since I looked at the code) I believe in main.brs where you update the path to your video feed xml files and I believe a site icon. It is clearly marked in the remarks. Then the hardest part is setting up the roku in developers mode, pkzipping (or whatever utility you like that can zip, i think win10 has it built in, maybe win 7 also been a while) and upload it to your roku device, then once your happy with the way it works you click package and it sends the player to the channel store (private)..
Those are the parts most people have trouble with, I found if you followed the directions to a tee it was really easy, and since you hosted the xml files you never had to look at brisght script or the roku again in developer mode. The bad part I encountered, if you want to clone the channel or update any of the code you have to remember the developers key and password you setup when creating the developers mode on your roku, and then you also need the original code cause it doesn't let you download it from the roku even on the one you developed on..
That actually reminds me how far I got. I did get it into developer mode and the script imported. I got the default 'splash image' or something up, which was an achievement in itself. Pretty cool that I got to turn on my Roku and see my own graphics. But it was shortly after I just couldn't keep up.
Again congrats on the channel!
