Recent update?

Hello,

I was wondering if there were any silent updates to the Roku between December 2nd and today. I had an app that was working fine, but I haven't touched it for a few weeks. All of a sudden it won't play the videos. As soon as I select the video I get "No streams were provided for playback". But I am printing the url and that url works fine in the browser (http://www.whitehouse.gov/WeeklyAddress ... ddress.mp4). I also tried dropping it into SimpleVideoPlayer and I got the exact same behavior. My player is currently on version 2.9 build 1509. I'm not sure what build it was on before it stopped working. I was hoping to send the beta out over the holidays for testing (since I know quite a few people who got their parents Roku players for Xmas).

Any advice?

Thanks,
Kaitlin

Re: Recent update?

Are you declaring the stream quality to be HD? If the stream is declared HD and the display is set to SD, the stream will be considered non-playable and you'll get the "No stream" error when you try to play it, unless you also provide another stream which is not declared HD.
