Installing a Roku Test Build

In this topic, you will learn how to install test builds of the Brightcove Beacon app for Roku.

Introduction

In Roku the test build is referred to as a non-certified channel. To set up a non-certified channel you must have your Vanity Access Code which is noted in step 9 in the Channel properties of the Submitting Apps to the Roku Store document.

An overview of the process is:

  • Add a channel that is published as a developer SDK, non-certified channel.
  • Configure the channel's properties.
  • Provide the channel store info.
  • Set the monetization option to None of the above apply. I will not be monetizing my channel.
  • Upload the package.
  • Preview and publish the channel.

For details from the Roku site, see the Installing a non-certified channel section of the Channel publishing document in the Roku documentation.
