Detect when Roku buffers?

Is there a way to detect when the "Loading... please wait" screen appears? Does this trigger a roVideoScreenEvent at all that I can capture? I'm trying to tune an HLS stream to reduce latency, but want to run some long tests to detect how many buffer's I get in a specific time interval.

Re: Detect when Roku buffers?

You'll get an isStreamStarted() event after a rebuffer with the IsUnderrun value set to true.
