Ads network for Tizen

Hi! I decided to try to create an application for Samsung Smart TV running Tizen.

And I noticed that some applications (mostly games) contain advertising (short videos).

How to embed advertising in my application on Tizen?

Which advertising networks work with Tizen? Or is it possible to insert advertising from the Samsung ads network?

Enabling Developer Mode on Tizen OS 8.0

I couldn't find any information online on how to enable Developer Mode on my Samsung TV after I updated to Tizen OS 8.0. It no longer works with the 12345 method in 'Apps', because 'Apps' is now just a tab on the home screen.

That said, I was able to figure it out. You need to select the 'Apps' tab at the top of your home screen. Then you need to scroll all the way down to 'App Settings' at the bottom of the screen. Enter 'App Settings' and then use the color 123 button to bring up the on-screen keyboard and enter "12345" and hit 'Done'. That's it.

How to enable developer mode after TV One UI update

I recently applied the new One UI update to my TV; however, I can no longer figure out how to enable developer mode to re-install the Jellyfin app.

Does anyone know how to do this? I assume there is still a way with the smart remote and the on-screen numbers.

Should I update to Tizen 8?

I have a Samsung QN90C TV.

I've had issues with the software in the past so I want to make sure this won't break anything. I finally got Q symphony working properly after the last update.

Another concern is if it will resurrect Samsung TV Plus which I disabled by deleting all the channels.

Tizen Studio Device Manager Incompatible JNA Native Library

Hi all,

Hoping you can help. My mate got himself a Samsung TV with Tizen and my god it's a nightmare (It's snappy and all that, but just trying to install say Jellyfin and it's becoming a whole headache. I deally I need to install Jellyfin and YouTube Adfree. The rest is good, just those two apps.

At the moment, I'm trying to open Device Manager from Tizen Studio, but no matter what I do, install and even on different computers I get the error "Unexpected exception occured" There is an incompatible JNA native library installed on this system.

- remove or uninstall the offending library

- set the system property jna.nosys=true

- set jna.boot.library.path to include the path to the version of the jnidispatch library included with the JNA jar file you are using.

On Samsung site they said it doesn't need Java, but yet in the folder for Tizen, there's .jar files. I've installed JDK 8

Any help please, this tv is close to be coming a the biggest thing I've thrown out of the window.

Thanks all, much appreciated.

IPTV App

I have an IPTV provider and I’m looking for a good app to use on my Samsung Smart TV. I’ve tried quite a few but haven’t fallen in love with any interface yet. I want one where I can add favorites, sort channels, and hide channels that I don’t want/need. What do you guys use? I don’t mind paying for an app if it’s got all those functions. Thanks!

User support says my TV doesn't have Developer Mode

That's it. I have an 50CU7700 Samsung TV and tried to follow theses steps: https://developer.samsung.com/smarttv/develop/getting-started/using-sdk/tv-device.html#Connecting-the-TV-and-SDK, but it won't work for me (tried both smart remote and Smart Things app). I contacted user support, that said my TV model doesn't have Developer Mode. Is this really possible? I mean, it's Android OS afterall, right?

Samsung Neo Odyssey G7 43*

Anyone knows how to really shutdown this Smart monitor? Holding down the remote's power button doesn't work. And it eats up 18w while on standby.

Only way that works consistently is cutting off the power (pulling the plug) and ot sux.

It's about the 43" model.

Building tizen image fails with no extlinux command in bootstrap chroot

Hello,

I'm trying to build an x86_64 Tizen image with a custom very minimal kickstart file. My goal is to have a minimalistic but functional system. However when I try to build the image with mic, it creates the tizen-bootstrap chroot environment on my Ubuntu 22.04 server, then fails with the error saying that no extlinux command is available in the chroot. I checked, the chroot is populated with the mic-bootstrap-x86-arm RPM package which contains no extlinux so I don't understand how mic expects extlinux binary to be present. Could someone help me please? My exact command is: "mic create raw -A x86_64 minimal.ks". Image type "fs" build works properly but it has no kernel so it is not bootable, the same happens if I build a "loop" image - only rootfs is built, no kernel, so I would definitely need a bootable raw image. Thank you in advance.

Resuming a failed download on Tizen Samsung Smart TV

I am building a Tizen web app but this should be relevant to native apps or .NET apps as well.

I download a file using:

var downloadRequest = new tizen.DownloadRequest(url, path);
var downloadId = tizen.download.start(downloadRequest, downloadListener);

Due to poor internet connectivity at some sites the downloads can fail to complete. If you run the same code on the same download file it does not resume the download but starts at 0. On a poor internet connection the restarts could consume huge amounts of data due to the large size of the files. On a mobile capped connection this can cause large bills and/or blocked connections due to hitting the cap.

There is a .resume function but it’s purpose is to resume user paused downloads. It does not function as a resumable download function.

I tested by starting a large download and kill the app part way. I then started the download again and it started from 0 but this time because the file existed and it named it filename(1).ext.

My question is, how do I resume a failed download from the last position?

How to empty storage on Signage Display with old firmware?

We have a number of screens running our own Signage software, running from URL Launcher. It has filled up all storage, so that it is impossible to install new versions of the app and it has old firmware which lacks the menu option "Menu -> System -> General -> Empty storage"..
Factory reset does not empty storage, and I am unable to access the filesystem using the remote.

Any suggestions?

My test device is model PM32F

For preinstalled app by TV, do we have a control over other apps?

As a pre-installed TV app on a OS by the TV manufacturer, Given the capabilities of Chrome extensions to inject DOM elements and control media playback within websites, are there any similar mechanisms available for TV apps to interact with third-party streaming platforms or applications on a TV OS?

Like monitoring the current state of other applications if whether they are open, paused, playing, or displaying specific content, Control the media playback of other applications, including functions like starting, pausing, stopping, seeking, and adjusting volume??

IB Pro Player issues with Samsung TV

Samsung 6000 Series QLED - IB Pro player riding on the latest Amazon Cube. Hard wired directly to the router. IB Pro player loads, updates and displays all categories. Live gives an error "no signal found" series and movies both produce the same error "playback failed". If I move this same cube setup to another display via HDMI it functions fine. I have tried both wired and wireless, changed between redundant isp's in my location, etc. It has to be the TV.

Enable Unknown Sources

Just bought a Samsung UHD 6900. I'm trying to download third party apps as the search on the tv doesn't give me much options. I'm following instructions online and I unlocked developer mode but I can't seem to enable unknown sources as the next step. Does anyone have any idea?

Need Help with Samsung Push Notification Service on Samsung Tizen TV - SecurityError Code 18

Hi everyone,

I’m currently working on a Tizen TV project and have been trying to integrate Samsung Push Notification Service into my application. The Push Permission was successfully granted from the Tizen Push Service, but I’m hitting a wall when trying to connect/register with the Samsung Push Notification Service in my project.
Here’s the error I’m encountering:
{

"UNKNOWN_ERR":9999,

"INDEX_SIZE_ERR":1,

"DOMSTRING_SIZE_ERR":2,

"code":18,

"message":"An attempt is made to perform an operation or access some data in a way that would be a security risk or a violation of the user agent's security policy.",

"name":"SecurityError"

}

I’m particularly stuck on the SecurityError (code 18). I’ve double-checked the permissions and configurations, but nothing seems to be working.

Has anyone faced a similar issue or have any suggestions on how to resolve this? Your help would be greatly appreciated.
