Ok so it looks like this is how the json file should be formated, but what I do not get is how are we to know the jw player is in fact being used...
The following example is for a mp4 link and a m3u8 stream.
Keep in mind that that category and tag must be filled out in the Channel settings. Also, notice that the last video has no comma but all previous items must be separated with a comma. On a side note, I am curious as to why so many questions here go unanswered
😕 I offer a lot of help on stack exchange and even there the Roku questions go unanswered or met with a hint of hostility, really bizarre.
Anyhow, I hope this helps.
