How to detect slow connection in ROKU Scene Graph?

Question

The requirement says "Switch to low definition video when connection is slow" I'm wondering is there anyway. Any help would be appreciated

Normally the Roku player will handle this on its own either with a set of on demand URLs with varying bitrates specified, or a linear stream with an HLS manifest specifying the multiple bitrates the player can retrieve based on its own bandwidth detection. — Joe T, Jul 06 '17 at 17:41

You can try checking the streamInfo field of the video node. It is an associative array, which holds some info:

measuredBItrate (Integer) The measured bitrate (bps) of the network when the stream was selected.

streamBitrate (Integer) The bitrate of the stream
