Re: one day Samsung apps, one day Yahoo Widgets - how to fix

I think I would prefer Yahoo because Samsung Apps only offers Youtube, Weather and (not-very usable) News to me.

But it would be an advance if one of this platforms would appear stable without the behavior that the TV switches the system without asking.

displaying video from UVC USB cameras

How much work would it be to write an app that displays the video from an attached USB camera? Could the default drivers from the Linux kernel be used or will new kernel modules be required?

HD channels are shown in SD on my B650 for a strange reason

Hello, for some strange reason, channels using 720p are shown in the same low resolution like SD channels. The TV recognizes the channel format as well and shows 720p in the info tab but everything seems to be displayed like in SD. I played around with settings in the service menu before but even a ...

I decided to co another way: I will write a small C++ program using libgcal that dumps the calendar and sends soap messages if a calendar event will happen in a given time: gcalsoap [username] [password] [time: 30] [host: localhost] [port: 52235] Last three parameters may be optional using defaults ...

Re: Patch to enable Yahoo widgets for all countries

I (owning a central european version) tried to change the PnP settings to a country where normally another widget system is used than Yahoo (Russia, Poland). But the widget system does not change. There still remains Yahoo. Having a look into the file system, there aren't any files there to launch a...
