How can implement Flurry Analytics for RokuSG? - flurry

I was unable to find the SDK for Roku.
Please tell me whether Flurry Analytics SDK is available for RokuSG or not?
If there aren't any SDK's, then please suggest me a way to implement it without the SDK.

Roku does not support Flurry Analytics. As far as I know there are three options for analytics in Roku---
If your intention is basic analytics, Roku provides basic statistics, like installs, visits, streaming data, BrightScript crashes, buffering data etc, about published channel at developer dashboard. You can access it by clicking the “View Analytics” option for any channel seen on the Manage My Channels page of your Developer Dashboard. Remember that this information is available for public channels only. You can find more information here--
https://developer.roku.com/en-gb/develop/platform-features/analytics-support
Using Roku Analytics component library. This library implements Google Analytics, Omniture, Brightcove, and Ooyala Analytics. Its quite easy to implement. You can implement one or more of these analytics solutions. Please check Implementation details at below link--
https://developer.roku.com/en-gb/docs/developer-program/libraries/roku-analytics-component.md
Third and my favorate way is custom implementation of Analytics component, which can be implemented using REST api calls. This is best as you can decide when and for which events you want to capture analytics. Initially it will seem dificult, but once you will dirty your hand in it, you will not go for any other solution.

How to get Average Visualization Time of an asset in Azure Media Services v3

im currently working in a module of analysis of stadistics of videos from azure media services. I want to ask how can i get some data like average visualization time, number of visualizations and more stuff like that. im pretty sure it has to exist a very easy way to get this data but i cannot find it. I found that application insights could be useful. I have found that i may have to manually track this information. Im working on .net6. An example of code would be awesome. Thanks in advance!

I have found that Application Insights could be useful to my problem. Some classes like TelemetryClient (from the package Microsoft.ApplicationInsights) seems to be useful to my problem, but i cant find clear information about them.
No, there is no concept of client side analytics or viewer analytics in Azure Media Services. You have to track and log things on your own on the client side. App Insights is a good solution for this, and there are some older samples out there showing how to do that with a player application.
Take a look at this sample - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/samples/azure-samples/media-services-javascript-azure-media-player-application-insights-plugin/media-services-javascript-azure-media-player-application-insights-plugin/
Just WARNING: it is very old and probably very out of date. I would not use much of the code from that sample, as it is using SDK's from 4 year ago. Just use it as guidance at a high level for what the architecture might look like.
Another solution would be to look to a 3rd party service like Mux.com/Data that can plug into any player framework for client analytics.

Automate Data Import to GA4

I am trying to automate refunds report to google analytics 4. I can't find good documentation on importing this data using analytics management API. I came across https://www.npmjs.com/package/#google-analytics/data which seems to be good for pulling reports from GA but couldn't get a way of doing data import.
I am writing a nodejs script and was hoping someone has encountered this scenario before and could share how they accomplished it. Any help or point in the right direction will be really appreciated.
The alternative to the UA Analytics Management api is the Google Analytics Admin API for ga4
To my knowledge it doesn't support data important at this time the API is still under development it may come in the future there is no way to know.
I would suggest looking at the measurement protocol for ga4 you may be able to use that

How to "take real-time screenshots" of live streaming rooms

I am using OpenTok's SDKs and APIs to build a live streaming and video conferencing website. I am wondering how websites like Twitch take a "real-time screenshot" of each streaming room and display it on their websites so that users can have a glance at the content of a room. Besides, is it possible to achieve this feature using Zoom's APIs? Thanks!
Manik here from OpenTok.
You can use the getImgData methods from the OpenTok SDK to capture screenshot of publishers and subscribers:
Publisher.getImgData
Subscriber.getImgData
These methods do not take screenshots of the application, but they give you base64 encoded strings of the live video which you can then use to reconstruct the view.
Hope this helps!

replace NLog in Azure

We have a running site using NLog for logs. We are not only login errors, we use it to measure things relative to business logic.
Now we are moving to Azure and that's why I'm searching for a better way to log this type of info in azure. I'm looking for something like graylog.
Things to have in mind:
What azure provides to log info is easy to read?
Can i make queries to read data?
Is there an API to log?
Check out the following stuff, which is more or less native to Azure. Also you could probably use some of the third parties, like New Relic.
Log Analytics
Application Insights
Operations Management Suite
Application Insights not only has out of the box monitoring but also provides capabilities to create your own queries.
ps. Just my 2 cents, I'd go for OMS, Microsoft is pushing it oh so hard, it is evolving rapidly, even if you are missing some capabilities they are going to be there soon and in the long run, Microsoft is really unlikely to drop OMS anytime soon, since they started forcing it like 1.5 year ago.

Accessing Application Insights Analytics from either Insights or .net

I heave created a query in (the wonderful tool ) Application Insight Analytics which I intended to use for monitoring in one way or another, but from what I found, this is not that easy?
The query returns some data I would like to set up Application Insight alerts on (such as if (column1 equals '1') then alert() or if(column2 > 10) then alert().
Or if that is not possible, is the Analytics service available either from .net code or power shell? If so, I would be able to create the alert-service myself (not ideal though).
Is any of the above features available?
(I do not think the functionality I´m after is available in Insights. I want to compare two custom events and based on differences between them, take actions if necessary)
There's currently no way to get azure alerts from an Analytics query.
However, there is a request for that on uservoice:
https://visualstudio.uservoice.com/forums/357324-application-insights/suggestions/14428134-add-alerts-based-on-results-of-analytics-queries
so go upvote and comment on that to make your voice heard.
There's also a planned service to read data from Analytics through an API as well:
https://visualstudio.uservoice.com/forums/357324-application-insights/suggestions/4999529-make-data-accessible-via-apis-for-custom-processin
Which you could write your own service against to do extra work.
