Hello,

Typically we prepare splash images in 1280x720 for HD and 720x480 for SD (0.91 PAR). Since Roku also supports 1080p, do we need to create the splash image in 1080p now? Similarly, how does this affect the overhang banner? Typically I made it 1280 pixels wide. But of 1080 is supported, do I need to go with 1920 pixels wide? Or are all the UI elements still just 720p?

Thanks

Currently only 720p is supported for our graphics screens (roScreen, roImageCanvas). I believe this also means that using the roVideoPlayer compoenent, which only works in context of those screens may also limit the (actual) video resolution to 720p. If you use the roVideoScreen component, you get true 1080p resolution.

For example, if you feed roScreen1920x1080 dimensions in your createObject statement, drawobject will draw offscreen if it is drawing above 1280 x or 720y.
