Return to main screen when video is done.

I created a simple Roku Channel (SDK).  I currently only have one video on the channel and it works fine except for when it ends, it just pauses on the final frame.  I would prefer that it goes back to the main page of the channel.  I've searched quite a bit with no luck.  Can anyone help?  Thanks in advance.

Re: Return to main screen when video is done.

You have to set up an observer on "video_state" and monitor for "finished".  Then change the visibility on your video screen and your "main page" screen.
