Direct Publisher to SDK

Hi all,

I've succesfully created a Channel with Direct Publisher. Now I want to extent it with my own "features" and changed it to SDK in the "Manage Channels" section.
Is there a simple way to extract the code from the Rokudevice, so that I can build the Package.zip? Or can I find it somewhere on https://github.com/rokudev/sample-channels?

Thanks for helping me!

Re: Direct Publisher to SDK

I haven't played with the SDK in quite a while, but, I think you should be able to get access to the code if you use Eclipse and a Telnet client.
FREE Windows desktop software for converting Direct Publisher channels to SceneGraph (SDK), for creating BIF (Trick Play) files, Roku (MRSS, JSON) feed files, and FireTV feed files @ GitHub/rrirower.

Re: Direct Publisher to SDK

I use eclipse and telnet! 
The link you gave is for packaging a sideloaded code. The code from Direct Publisher comes directly from the Roku Account onto the Roku Device.
Where can I find the source files created with Direct Publisher on the device and are there any commands to copy those files directly from the device in order to modify it for further improvement?

Re: Direct Publisher to SDK

I would be very surprised if Roku provides the Direct Publisher channel source code, as it's likely that it contains calls to internal-use-only API functions. It might even be written with the NDK instead of the SDK.
