Re: Network error

There is a code returned when playback stops. I think you'd just need to check if the user initiated the cancel of playback or if it stopped on its own.
Then you could use roMessageDialog to inform the user of any text you want. http://sdkdocs.roku.com/display/sdkdoc/roMessageDialog

Re: Network error

You can also use ifDeviceInfo.EnableLinkStatusEvent. You should get events when the network connection seems to have dropped or returned.
