I wanted a way to show my Roku projects on my website and I found this web player made by Marcelo Lv Cabral. It's amazing! This UI is lifted from his work, so big thanks to him!

You can play the Roku apps that I have built here! Press ESC to exit the app, and be aware that the functionality may not match exactly what you would see on a real Roku.

My latest app is Nintendo Clips, for which I also built the entire backend. You can see how that works in the Video Manager part of this website. As part of that work I also wrote a worker that extracts a thumbnail from each video, which you will see in the Roku app. I hope you enjoy seeing my collection of mostly unremarkable clips I recorded on my Nintendo Switch!

Also, if the apps don't appear at first just refresh XD

How to Use the BrightScript TV

– Click on any app icon in the BrightScript TV menu screen or load your own app or code using the purple button above.

– When an app is running, you can make it full screen by double-clicking on the display.

– Use your keyboard to navigate on the games and apps, the image you see on the right side, shows what keys that are mapped to the Roku remote control buttons.

Notes for BrightScript Developers

You can see the debug messages from print statements in your code using the browser console, just right click anywhere in the page and select Inspect (Ctrl+Shift+i). Exceptions from the engine library will be shown there too.

If you added a break point (stop) in your code, you can also debug using the browser console, just send the commands using: brs.debug("help")

The Roku registry data is stored on the browser Local Storage and you can inspect it using the Developer Tools.

For a better debugging experience, is recommended to use the engine desktop application integrated with Visual Studio Code, you will find more details in the links below.
