Package names now start with P?

I haven't seen any posts about this, but was it intended for the package file names to now start with a P? I was surprised to see it no longer being pure hexadecimal and that it always now starts with "P".

Re: Package names now start with P?

You can name the package file whatever you want. The file name generated by the Roku isn't important.

The chars after the P are the MD5 of the file contents. This allows checking for corruption if you care to do so.
