Re: roSlideShow and 3.0

Interesting. It must have had a huge chunk size so that it never needed them. It never used them or I'd have never been able to view photos and that multiple request thing (not ranges, the whole file) is definitely new.

Any comment about the -3 index?

Re: roSlideShow and 3.0

Not sure how I missed this before, but in the documentation for the isRequestFailed() event for the roVideoScreen, there is a reference to the -3 error code.

• When you get an error code of -3, the Roku Internal Error number may have further meaning to Roku Developer Support.
• It’s good to record these roku internal errors whenever you get a -3 Error number.

Re: roSlideShow and 3.0

That's interesting, but that is for roVideoScreen and not roSlideShow. The Index for roVideoScreen returns an error code whereas for roSlideShow it should return the index of the "problem" slide presumably so you can tell which one is the problem slide. It still might be worthwhile to see if the Data gives any kind of internal error code, although the documentation says Data will equal 0 for isRequestFailed().

I know it's for a different component. I just thought it was too much of a coincidence to not mention it when I ran across it today. Maybe the behavior was changed in 3.0 and the documentation wasn't updated, or maybe the documentation is just wrong... or maybe it's coincidence...
