So after some headless running around the documentation I think I know roughly what I need to do. First of all, I've ordered a Roku 3 for myself. RITM0028950 What you do is you take the example app (aka channel) called "videoplayer" in the SDK zip file and start modifying it. The only thing that isn't genuinely part of that app is "artwork" and "xml" directories. Those are supposed to be hosted on a server but I guess you can trick the app to serve this from the app itself as local files instead of URLs on the internet. The first job once this is up and running is to look at the categories.xml file and make that real Air Mozilla data. And to test it out you should be able to edit the file categoryFeed.brs and edit this: https://gist.github.com/peterbe/bd4f100daf37240193cf Apparently it's supposed to be possible to connect to telnet do the Roku device and get all logging.
