This is sort of required to cleanup the applications connection to the server. We presently and always have had problems when users press HOME during video playback. Our application sends progress updates. We can have the server "guess" during these times and assume that once progress updates are not sent for 60 seconds to assume the Roku user has pressed HOME. This works hit-n-miss and is simply a work-around.
This makes it wind up keeping tuners locked for our application which streams liveTV from an HD-Homerun. I am sure HD-Homerun people themselves would love onDestroy for the same reason I would. You get a chance in your application to give notice to the server of the stream that you are about to exit.
A short duration on top before the app is forcefully exited and terminated. Perhaps a 1 or 2 second allotment where we can quickly put code that must be sent to advise the server that transcoding or streaming must be terminated ASAP.
Please? Roku please listen to our prayers. You are our only hope. I am leaving this message in this r2d2 unit in the hope someone can help us. Please.
