Sites converted from Direct Publisher to SDK no longer pull Vimeo Feeds

My channels were converted from Direct Publisher to SDK.  They have been working fine for quite some time.  Now, as of a few days ago, all my channels show only the Logo, the "Search," and the "About" as though they are no longer pulling the Vimeo feed for each channel.  There used to be some kind of Roku "batch job" that ran about 4 times a day to update the feeds.  Is this no longer happening?  Is there a way to fire off that process manually?

Re: Sites converted from Direct Publisher to SDK no longer pull Vimeo Feeds

you should check with Vimeo

from the official video support page 

"On June 27, 2023, we are ending support for our existing TV apps. 

That means we will remove the TV apps from the app stores and we will not publish any new releases, security updates, or provide technical support for TV apps."

Re: Sites converted from Direct Publisher to SDK no longer pull Vimeo Feeds

Vimeo moved toward video casting to a TV and no longer supports OTT.

However, you can still use the video links on the OTT platform with the feed. 

Take note that video outside the Vimeo player may incur a charge! (There are some complaints about it out there).

Some edit the JSON feeds and add categories tags and queries or Categories and playlists!

You have options to stay with Vimeo and make it work!
