Whaaa? That's can't be - how is one to use ECP-documented /input command if not via roInput?
Just looked up and /input was announced as part of rOS 4.1 some 5+ years ago https://sdkdocs.roku.com/display/sdkdoc ... 12/21/2011 - has it been secretly discontinued?

I would be first to say (in fact i think i have before) that /input has "issues" in that it is a one-way communication - but baring /input, what other ways does external app have to talk to a channel? E.g. take https://channelstore.roku.com/details/8 ... arty-games for example - i am fairly sure (80-90%) it uses /input and roInput for Android phone to be a touch-pad controller

PS. the alternative of trying to host own web server on Roku is arguably a bigger mess waiting to happen

I stand corrected 🙂 The usage as documented in the External Control Guide is (of course) supported.
FWIW, we'll get it added to the component listing documentation.

There are serious uhhh "deficiencies" in the ChannelStore/billing API cluster, see
viewtopic.php?f=34&t=95592

https://sdkdocs.roku.com/display/sdkdoc/File+System needs updating with newest mounts like "libpkg:/"

Compile and runitime error codes remain undocumented, see

FR missing as possible Country Code (Channel Store region).

[belltown]

roVideoPlayerEvent and roVideoScreenEvent is missing documentation for the following predicates:

isSegmentDownloadStarted()
isDownloadSegmentInfo()
isFormatDetected()

[EnTerr]

Done.
Just noticed createObject() still gives BrightSign examples:

sw = CreateObject("roGpioControlPort")
serial = CreateObject("roSerialPort", 0, 9600)

Replace with Roku classes maybe?

TFM shows wrong (or no) dimensions for mm_icon_focus_sd, mm_icon_focus_hd, mm_icon_focus_fhd - 
see viewtopic.php?f=34&t=96475 for details. Needs fixing!
 Fixed!
