I am trying to use roEVPCipher method to encrypt my data using aes-128-ecb cipher,
But Its failing in initial setup only, Setup returns error code as -1

cipher_obj = CreateObject("roEVPCipher")
ret = cipher_obj.Setup(true, "aes-128-ecb", "0123456789abcdef", "", 0)
if ret <> 0
       print "Setup Error" ; ret
end if

The similar code is working properly for blowfish cipher encryption

cipher_obj = CreateObject("roEVPCipher")
ret = cipher_obj.Setup(true, "bf", "7B1CB530521E7554D623E1412A2CF29F", "785BC65A9D7850FD", 0)
if ret <> 0
       print "Setup Error" ; ret
end if

Please suggest me, how to use aes-128-ecb cipher encryption

You may want to post this to the developer forum rather than here on the general user forum.

The problem is with the key you're trying to use. When using aes-128, you need to use a 128 bit hex encoded key.

Thanks Guys, Now its working fine with 128 bit hex encoded key

I am unable to figure out how to use AES 128 encryption. Roku box keeps rebooting in most of the attempts. Otherwise, setup call returns -1. It is working perfectly fine if I use "bf".

Appreciate your help.

here is my code snippet:

  
    alg = "aes-128-cbc"
    'alg = "bf"
    pad = 1 
    encryptKey = "10a58869d74be5a374cf867cfb473859"
    IV = "00000000000000000000000000000000"
    plainText = "00000000000000000000000000000000"

    encResult = crypto_encrypt(alg, encryptKey, IV, plainText, pad)
    

Function crypto_encrypt(alg as String, encryptKey As String, IV As String, text As String, pad as Integer) As String

   crypto = CreateObject("roEVPCipher")
   res = crypto.Setup(true, alg,encryptKey,IV,pad)
   print res
   
   ba = CreateObject("roByteArray")
   ba.FromAsciiString(text)

   enc = crypto.Process(ba)
   
   return (enc.ToHexString())
   
End function

How were you able to encode your ascii string to a 128-bit hex key? I've been creating a roByteArray from ascii and then outputting a hex string, but I'm not getting my roEVPCipher setup yet...
