SpringboardScreen button navigation

Hi

I have SpringboardScreen with three button and poster of video
Buttons are like
Button Index : Title
0 : Preview for 2 minutes
1 : Subscribe to channel
2 : Back
By default "Preview for 2 minutes" button is selected
is it possible: after watching the 2 minute preview (control get back to springboard screen ), "Subscribe to channel" button should be focused/selected.

Thanks

    You should be able to remove the 'back' selection since the user can press UP on any remote to do the same thing.

    Or, when the user returns to the springboard screen after watching the preview, you could redisplay the buttons so you have:

    0: Subscribe to channel
    1: Watch 2 minute preview again

    Then the Subscribe button will be highlighted when they return back to the springboard screen.

    EDIT: TheEndless beat me to it.

    Thank you very much

    I done it using External Control Protocol

    Get the IP Address of Roku Device



    Function GetRokuLocalIP() As String

        print "---GetRokuLocalIP---"

        For Each key in m.ips

            ipAddress = m.ips[key]

            if ipAddress <> invalid and ipAddress.len() > 0 then

                return ipAddress

            end if

        Next

        Return ""

    End Function
     ip  = GetRokuLocalIP()
    ecp_url = "http://" + ip + ":8060/keypress/Down"
    print "ecp_url " ; ecp_url
    req = CreateObject("roUrlTransfer")
    request.SetUrl(ecp_url)
    request.PostFromString("")
