Add support for packaged NCL applications (e.g. .ncl.gz or .nclzip)
The main idea is to group the .ncl file and all the media objects in the same package.
The ITU define a specification[1] for pack IPTV widget applications. It also use zip for packing. I believe you can use its metadata for compatibility.

There is the standard used by the Ministry of Communications portal, which is a zip file with some details. Check attached document (pg 21 - Estrutura padrão da aplicação). Especificação da REST API do Portal Ginga_v1.1.pdf .
PS: This is a EAD definition, and all settop box being distributed support this feature.
