    Download squashfs file from internal memory

    Sorry if this is a dumb question. Is there a way to download the squashfs.bin file after we upload the source zip file and convert to squashfs at roku development application installer ? It says "squashfs file in internal memory" and I'm able to download pkg file only.

    Memory profiling not working

    The CPU brightscript profiling is working- I can see the threads live. But when I add in memory profiling, I get "Can not establish connection to xxxxxxxx:8080 (Timeout or might be in use).", and the roku device restarts. I have tried two ways: the manifest approach, and the profiler web tool approach. With manifest, I use: # Brightscript profiling options bsprof_enable=1 bsprof_enable_mem=1 bsprof_data_dest=network With the web tool, I select as follows in screenshot:

    Out of Memory issues

    After 5-10 deployments of my application I have to factory reset my device, because I start getting out of memory errors. Is there a way to clear memory on the device ? This is becoming a huge waste of time & energy. Also it's really really really really really annoying.

    Roku 4 uses of local storage

    I've read through SDK documentation but can't confirm it is for the Roku 4 so I wanted to ask what can the local SD/USB storage be used for? What I would like to do is use it for a cache of some sort. For example, someone brings up my channel and starts streaming a video. They exit and come back and want to play the same video so it pulls it from the cache instead of restreaming. There may have to be some meta data indicating when the cache should expire and the content would ideally be protected so it could not be pirated. Is this possible? Thanks, Michael

    RAM memory

    My 2XS (original) shows 39mb available when running r2D2_bitmaps (256mb installed) and my Roku3 shows 70mb available (512mb installed). Can someone confirm that these models are the same as the Roku3 (512mb installed, 70mb available to the channel) thanks 2700 new Roku LT 2710 new Roku 1 2720 new Roku 2 3500 HDMI streaming stick

    Insufficient Storage

    I've been following the tutorials for creating a channel. For some reason though I'm getting "There is not enough storage to add Southeast TV Test. Please remove one or more of your installed channels and try again." This is a brand new Roku Box, I don't have any other channels really. If I want to add other channels it let's me. What is making it run out of storage? The package is small and the video that I linked is also less than 1mb. What's wrong with it? What would cause this error? Obviously it's not insufficient storage.

    Insufficent Storage Error

    I'm developing my first channel on Roku 2 (already did some on Roku 1) and I keep getting an "Insufficient Storage" error. I have no other channels, I even did a hard Factory Reset, but I still get this error. I read in an earlier post that it could be due to a bug trigger in the latest firmware release, but I'm using the sdk examples directly out the box and still getting the error (the only thing I do is change the Manifest title). Does anyone know where and how this bug is triggered in the bs?
