Moonlight for Tizen - Dockerfile template

An easy method for building Moonlight for Samsung TV

Credits

• Moonlight developers: https://moonlight-stream.org
• Samsung developers: https://github.com/SamsungDForum/moonlight-chrome
• This Dockerfile and support files have been adapted from jellyfin-docker-tizen

Usage

1. Enable developer mode on the TV (more information on official Samsung guide):

   • Go to Apps.
   • Press 12345 on the remote; a dialog should pop up.
   • Set Developer mode to On; fill in the IP of the Docker host.
   • Power off and power on the TV as instructed; go once again to Apps.
   • Depending on your model, a "DEVELOP MODE" or similar message might appear.

2. Build the application within a Docker image:

   docker build -t moonlight-tizen .
   

   This will take a while.

3. Deploy the application to the TV:

   • Run and enter a container; the container will be removed automatically on exit:

   docker run -it --rm moonlight-tizen
   

   • Connect to your TV over Smart Development Bridge:

   sdb connect YOUR_TV_IP

   • Confirm that you are connected, take note of the device ID:

   sdb devices
   

   The device ID will be the last column, something like UE65NU7400.

   • Install the package:

   tizen install -n MoonlightWasm.wgt -t DEVICE_ID

   Moonlight should now appear in your Recent Apps - or similar page - on your TV.

   • Exit the container:

   exit

   • (Optional) Remove the Docker image:

   docker image rm moonlight-tizen
