AppLaunchComplete and supports_input_launch=1 entry

I have a subscription channel needing updates (this channel has been running for a long time with only updates from the json). When it loads it plays a list of videos from a json as if it's a live channel.

The static analysis is giving me 2 errors

1. Channels are required to support roInput events. Please ensure your manifest includes the supports_input_launch=1 entry and your channel properly handles roInput events.

and,

2. "AppLaunchComplete" beacon is missing.

 

Are both of these required for a channel that plays as if it's live? (I might be misunderstanding what these objects do.)

 

I can really use some help as to where to begin to fix these 2 errors?

 

Thank you.

Re: AppLaunchComplete and supports_input_launch=1 entry

Is this correct?  I add

supports_input_launch=1

To the manifest file? If this is correct where else do I make a change to fix? Not sure where to go to make sure the channel properly handles roInput events.

The documentation for input launch is here

https://developer.roku.com/docs/references/brightscript/components/roinput.md 

Documentation for signal beacons here

https://developer.roku.com/docs/developer-program/performance-guide/measuring-channel-performance.md 

 

You will also need to make sure your deeplinks are working correctly and be aware that content that is deep linked is expected to play automatically once handled by your channel... even if you are not making use of this feature it is a requirement for certification by Roku automated tests.

Thank you or the links.

Someone else helped me on the channel build before and I'm trying to figure out how to add these fixes myself. It's still foreign to me but working on it.
