• CreateChannelDescriptor(a As Object) As Object: Creates an associative array that can either be
passed to the
roVideoPlayer.PlayFile() method (to tune to a channel) or parsed for metadata. The generated
channel object can be based on one of the following:
o Index:
["ChannelIndex"] = 0
o Virtual channel number as a string in an associative array:
["VirtualChannel"] = "12.1"
o Channel name as a string:
["ChannelName"] = "KCBS"
Note: Channels are sorted internally by virtual channel, so you could use a ChannelIndex script to implement
standard channel up/down behavior.
These are the entries generated in the array:
o VirtualChannel
o ChannelName
o CentreFrequency
o ModulationType
o VideoPid
