Android TV Game Development

Hey everyone! I followed this great tutorial for Android TV development: https://coronalabs.com/blog/2015/01/13/tutorial-creating-android-tv-apps/However, our app gets rejected for Android TV because it doesn’t have the required banner image. The problem is, the banner is there. We put the banner in the root folder alongside the other Android icons but Corona doesn’t put it in the correct folder when we build. I unzipped out apk to verify this. If anyone knows how I can get around this let me know. Is there a way to tell Corona where to put the banner file when building? Thanks!

Hi @Eggroll Games,

Which build of Corona SDK are you using? Are you 100% sure that you named the banner (case-sensitive) according to this guide?

Yes, the file is a 320x180 .png named Banner-xhdpi.png. My Corona version is 2014.2511.

@taylorringo - for a windows GUI editor you should check out Level Director (www.retrofitproductions.com/level-director)

 

Hi @Eggroll Games,

I believe support for Android TV came in a daily build sometime following 2014.2511. Please download a more current daily build and see if that does the trick.

Take care,

Brent

You’re right. I built on my Mac which runs version 2015.2546 and it worked. Thank you!
