SamsungSmartTV
Warning: This app is a legacy program meant for older Samsung Smart TVs running Orsay (pre-2015), which has since been replaced by Tizen. It may be possible to use this app by side-loading, but it is considered unsupported (we are unable to help you with it).
You may also wish to try a web browser with Jellyfin, wherever possible.
This is a fork of the original jellyfin-samsungtv repo which is now archived. If you own an older samsung TV as I do you probably wanted a more updated app. Feel free to use and start issues and pull requests. However, I am not the original developer of this app so I maynot be able to provide the best help.
Installation
Install the app using your own web server's IP and the appropriate instructions for your model year TV. Look here for general instructions.
These instructions explain how to prepare the files to be uploaded. It is also possible to load the files using a USB stick; these notes don't cover that process.
-
Edit the supplied
package.sh
script to set your own IP address and document root. The script assumes a modern Linux (Ubuntu) setup; you may need to make other adjustments to suit your environment. -
Run the script. It will:
- Create a ZIP file and an XML file that points to it.
- Copy the file to your web server's document root.
- Run the
netcat
command to listen for debug messages emitted when the application is loaded.
