Installing multiple custom apps on my Roku2 XS
While going through the examples in the SDK, i modified couple of examples and zipped them for install to see how it works. However when installing via the web interface it allows me to install only one app. I can either replace or delete to install another. Is that how its supposed to be ?
Whats the best way to install multiple apps as i'll be be working on couple projects simultaneously. ?

You can only side-load one channel at a time. You can setup private/unpublished channels from the developer website if you need to have multiple channels installed at once.

By using multiple roku boxes, each one can have a single dev app installed at one time. Each one can also be keyed to the same dev-id, or separate unique dev-id's.
I can understand Roku not wanting to have more than one dev app installed per box as it increases the complexity to manage more dev apps with the debugger.
