Any updates with regards to telstra?

 

Sorry, no.  It is not a fast process and they get to select whom they allow.  We are working on it.

That's fine, I guess it is our own fault for not speaking up sooner. this has been going on for years and never really bothered me until plex showed up as a native app.  

 

ill keep checking in from time to time to see if there is any news.  

 

Cheers

Since version 4 of the windows server my roku plays video's with a green flickering.  it's now unusable.  Really hoping things with telstra work out soon.

That green flicker might mean hardware accelerated transcoding. If you disable hardware acceleration does the green flicker stop?

Just came back to say i think the problem is the hardware acceleration,  turned it off last night and the problems seem to have gone away.  my server runs an intel on-board gfx card, is that a problem?

10.18.10.4425  04/04/2016 it's running on homeserver 2011 and that was the last driver for it. might have to put an actual discrete gfx card in.

Yes. Ability to go to a channel with no info in the guide. Also live tv continue to play with guide overlay.

Can you please explain this in more detail?

 

Thanks.

A channel in the guide with no guide information doesn't allow you to go to the channel. It shows in the guide but you can't go to the channel. It's pointless. It either shouldn't even show in the guide or if you select the channel you should be able to go to it.

We'll add this to our internal tracker for review. Thanks.

Apologies.  I thought this was fixed a long time ago.

 

Edit:  It was - just not in the way you were expecting.  Hit the "Play" button on your Roku remote and the channel will start.

 

We'll make it so OK does the same thing.  Thanks.

That's what I was told a few weeks ago :)

 

Reference: Issue #219: LiveTV - Lack of overview makes an item unplayable

 

Apologies we lost track of this earlier. We assumed we fixed it but we must still have work to do in this area. It is now on the tracker and getting visibility. Thanks for reminding us. :)

Haha. I would have never tried that. Thanks. Is there any public facing version of your issue tracker? Or a git issues I could look at for the Roku App?

So it took plex over a year to get added to the telstra store.  the bar has been set,  VERY LOW....  

 

are you sure there is no way to side load a current version of the roku app?
