Does anyone have an example JSON search feed they’d be interested in sharing? Particularly for a channel that doesn’t conform to the series/season/episode framework?

We have a lot of individual videos, some that are related to each other, many that aren’t.

The Channel Feed Manager software I wrote can generate a search feed from your channel feed. It’s available from my signature below.

Thanks @Baradanikto . Unfortunately I’m Mac based.

You can run Windows programs on a Mac. Some users on this forum do just that.

Ok, I got a basic JSON search feed together using the Roku sample.

It’s submitted and 100% validated (using all 3 validators suggested in the Roku Dev documentation).

Roku generated the SearchBeta channel…and now I’m stuck. I don’t get how to “test” with this beta channel.

Any help appreciated.

Install the BetaSearch channel, wait about 48 hours, and then perform some searches on your TV using titles from your channel content as search terms.

If you are successful and find your content, and it goes to your beta channel and plays the content, record a couple of searches - open a support ticket with the Roku Dev Support- and send in the titles you tried and the recording.

The search field will be published if they can replicate your searches with successful results.

@Baradanikto I had received recently **ASSET\_REMOVED\_CONTENT** and **ASSET\_ALL\_PLAY\_OPTIONS\_REMOVED** for all my feed videos and I’ve tried to use your tool but got “Cannot open feed file” for my JSON on the tool. I can open my big feed on the tool and generate a new one from that? Is this error expected?

@PriApocalypse my guess is that your feed file does not conform to the Roku Json schema. You can look at the log file for any errors that were detected. Or, post a link to your feed file and I’ll take a look.

Hi @Baradanikto I’ve got this error from Roku validator

Errors from validator (logs):  
[  
{  
“CONTENT\_ALL\_PLAY\_OPTIONS\_REMOVED”: [  
“6885000413379526364”,  
“7199835293012585148|Video”,  
“wxii”  
],

“wxii”  
],  
“isError”: true  
},

Thank you in advance 👍  
The same error happens for me using the Roku official sample feed: [https://storage.googleapis.com/pri-dev-account.appspot.com/advanced-feed-example.json](https://storage.googleapis.com/pri-dev-account.appspot.com/advanced-feed-example.json) FYI which is pretty strange since they provide this advanced feed example json as a part of search feed doc

Ok, i’ll submit in there. But it’s not a error from your personal tool and it is in fact on roku portal
