HLS contentList for roVideoPlayer

Archived
1

I was trying to use a m3u8 HLS playlist to roVideoPlayer. I am using the demo code given here: http://blog.roku.com/developer/2014/01/ … evelopers/ or download zip here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/rokusdk … p/download

This is what given in the sample code:


player = CreateObject("roVideoPlayer")
  player.SetContentList([
    {
        Stream : { url :"http://ecn.channel9.msdn.com/o9/content/smf/smoothcontent/elephantsdream/Elephants_Dream_1024-h264-st-aac.ism/manifest" }
        StreamFormat : "ism"
        TrackIDAudio: "audio_eng"
        TrackIDSubtitle: "ism/textstream_eng"
   }
  ])

And I want to change it to HLS instead of Smooth streaming. So I did:


 player = CreateObject("roVideoPlayer")
 player.SetContentList([
    {
        Stream : { url :"http://devimages.apple.com/iphone/samples/bipbop/bipbopall.m3u8" }
        StreamFormat : "hls"
        SwitchingStrategy:"full-adaptation"
    }
  ])

Am I missing anything here? Because the video is not playing. Also in the roVideoPlayerEvent event, im getting type(msg) as invalid

I am very much new to HLS and building player. Your help is very much appreciated.
