Launch One Roku Channel From Another??

Archived

Hey All,

I had our CEO ask me if it’s possible to launch a Roku channel from another Roku channel, and had no idea so thought I’d ask the experts.

So, for example, say we have a Roku channel that allows you to enter a video into your Hulu queue. But now, we want to watch that video, is it possible to launch the Hulu application and take you to that video? I know this is possible with a website, but curious if this could work within a Roku channel?

Any advice, examples would be greatly appreciated!!

Best
Jay

Thanks, so “ECP” is something I should read up on?

Yes, external control protocol - had it’s own pdf in the SDK last time I checked as well.
