roVideoPlayerEvent method isPlaybackPosition() is no longer working?
I have a live roku channel still using Legacy Framework from 2016 and it's player is using roVideoPlayerEvent's method isPlaybackPosition() to play HLS live stream like following:
while true msg = wait(0, port) if type(msg) = "roVideoScreenEvent" then if msg.isScreenClosed() print "Screen closed" exit while else if (msg.isPlaybackPosition()) then nowpos = msg.GetIndex() RegWrite(episode.ContentId, nowpos.toStr()) else print "Unexpected event type: "; msg.GetType() end if else print "Unexpected message class: "; type(msg) end if end while
It used to be working till I last checked on Friday (29th May) but on Monday (1st June) it stopped working. When I debugged msg.isPlaybackPosition() is returning false for HLS stream which it used to be playing for years. It falls in else case and prints Unexpected event type: 11
Since we can not update legacy app and will have to move to RSG which I am currently working on but it can take time, so is there any way this problem could be solved till new app is published? Thanks in advance.

I also had this problem for the last 3 days. But, now it is gone. I think It was in maintenance. Please check now. It's working fine.

Re: roVideoPlayerEvent method isPlaybackPosition() is no longer working?
I'm still facing the issue. It's not fixed at my end. Is there any official statement on it by Roku?
I'm using Roku 3 with most recent Software Version (9.3.0) and Build (4170).
