Roku Developer Program

I am running a video using HLS protocol in roVideoScreen. The problem is that sometimes the HLS streaming does not work. The URL is HTTP. What I am unable to understand is why this only happens sometimes. I get the following error:

showVideoScreen | msg = ConnectionContext failure | index =  0
status message: ConnectionContext failure
showVideoScreen | msg = Unspecified or invalid track path/url. | index =  0
status message: Unspecified or invalid track path/url.
showVideoScreen | msg =  | index = -5
isRequestFailed error text: ; error ID: -5; info: <Component: roAssociativeArray> =
{
    MediaFormat: <Component: roAssociativeArray>
}

How do I solve this?

status message: ConnectionContext failure

I believe this message denotes when an HTTP error code was returned.

I found these lines help me debug all my hls streams:

Added to video screen object:

    syslog = CreateObject("roSystemLog")
    syslog.SetMessagePort(screen.GetMessagePort())
    syslog.EnableType("http.error")
    syslog.EnableType("http.connect")

	while true
		msg = wait(0, screen.GetMessagePort())
		'DEBUG
		if type(msg) = "roSystemLogEvent"
		    print type(msg)
            print msg.GetInfo()
            print msg.GetData()
            print msg.GetMessage()
		end if
