Channels participate in Roku Search by creating and submitting a search feed. The search feed is a single JSON file that includes the content metadata for a channel's video catalog. Content metadata includes the unique ID, title, description, duration, rating, language, artwork, and so on
This feed is made following the specification on this link
For more information check this Direct Publisher quick start guide
You can find the whole site JSON here https://demo.avideo.com/roku.json
If you have too many videos on your platform you can limit the total used videos with the rowCount
parameter on the URL.
for example, to display the latest 10 videos only use this https://demo.avideo.com/roku.json?rowCount=10
You can also filter your feed by category and create multiple channels, you just need to add the catName
parameter with the category clean name
For example http://192.168.1.4/YouPHPTube/roku.json?catName=default
You can also find a button on the categories page
To have a better control about the order of your videos you can use programs to sort them.
Once you have a playlist made. go to My Channel -> Program Tab and you will see a Feed menu, where you can select the Roku feed for that playlist
