Where do I find testers?
I am looking for someone to test my beta app. Since it is sound system related I am trying to find individuals with different versions of Roku device and different versions of sound systems. Where do you guys find testers for your apps? Did you buy all (or more than one) Roku devices and test app by yourself? If you are willing to test my app that would be great, but that is not a long term solution for developers in general!Published Screen Saver Not in Store
I created a screen saver and received the email that it was published. I can find the screen saver on roku.com without issue: Halloween Screen Saver Channels | TV Apps | Roku Channel Store | Roku However, the screen saver does not appear in the app store on the TV. Is there something I'm missing ? Thank you
RAF + skippable Ads
Hi. I need an advice. I need to implement skippable Ads on Roku. I use RAF to render Ads. According to the documentation, there is a method (setAdExit), which allows to skip Ads using Back button. It marked as deprecated though it currently works. But I need to implement the "full" version of skippable Ads, including countdown timer and Skip button. Does RAF have a built in functionality for this (there is no info in the documentation)? What other choices I have except RAF? Thanks.
Help Needed – "mm_icon_focus_hd" Manifest Error Preventing Public App Submission
Hello Roku Community, I’m trying to submit my Roku channel package to start the certification process for public publishing. However, I keep encountering the following error during the upload process: Manifest is missing a required attribute: "mm_icon_focus_hd" I’ve thoroughly reviewed and updated all manifest requirements and project files according to Roku's documentation. As far as I can tell, this attribute is properly configured, yet the system continues to flag it as missing, preventing me from proceeding with the upload. I’m unsure if this is a platform-side issue or if there's something subtle I'm overlooking. Additionally, I’ve contacted Roku Developer Support three times over the past few weeks. Each time, I waited more than 7 days, but unfortunately, I haven’t received any response. If anyone in the community has faced this issue or has insight on how to resolve it, I’d greatly appreciate your help. Thank you in advance! —Ginedy

Nothing shows up in my channel when I have 8 videos in my feed
Hi there, Recently I posted Only 6 items are ingesting into my feed. At the time, only 6 videos showed up in my feed, and after that, they don't show up anymore. Feed is still the same, and nothing has been untouched. I used a JSON validator to double-check if my feed was valid or not. The feed status has shows no errors.

Hi all, We’re updating our own Roku app (channel), but unfortunately, the original developer key was lost. The error says: "Developer ID of submitted package does not match the developer ID of the previously published version." We’re still able to submit a new version, but I noticed this note in the dashboard: “App issue that does not block certification, but may be reported as an Error in the future.” This is a free channel with no in-app purchases, and we’re okay with losing any data stored in the registry. Has anyone gone through this before? Will the Developer ID mismatch eventually block updates or require contacting Roku? Appreciate any insights - thanks! — STeN
