Lazy Loading in EPG

Hello.
How I can implement lazy loading in EPG?
Two Sections should be in attention to do this:
1) Channels - When the end of list channels is coming soon (in up/down buttons listing) -> Upload additional channels
2) Programs - When the end of list programs is coming soon (in left/right buttons listing) -> Upload additional programs

I think Observers should be used. But EPG allows to observe only programs indexes. - https://sdkdocs.roku.com/display/sdkdoc/EPGGrid, cannot get channel row index.

I supposed that ArrayGrid (as parent node) can helps me (such as focusRow and focusColumn) but no (they are always zero)

Re: Lazy Loading in EPG

As far as I know there is no build in functionality to do this. I actually suggested this among other things as a future improvement to RokuJoel. Let's wait and see:)

1) When 7.1 will be released?
2) Will be better if we wait of your implementation or make lazy loading to work manually?
3) EPG Grid Customization will be improved in 7.1? We want a custom elements of channels/programs.
