If you have a Roku Direct Publisher channel and you leased a custom Roku SDK channel from OTTfeed.com, then you need to convert you existing Roku Direct Publisher channel to Roku SDK and upload the PKG file that was provided by OTTfeed team.

Here are a step-by-step instructions:

2. Click on the “Manage My Channels” link in the left menu

3. On your channel click on the “Options” dropdown and select “Convert to SDK Channel”

Note: You will need to wait and hour or two before you will be able to upload your custom Roku SDK PKG file.

4. Select “Package Upload” from the dropdown
