Widgetlist of all installed apps

[Schani]

Hi,

I am working on a remote app for Android and I want to ask if it is possible to retrieve a list of all currently installed apps on the TV?
I saw this in the Samsung remote app, where the app shows all currently installed apps and it is possible to start one app directly by selecting it on the mobile device.

Thanks,
Schani

hm saw smthg. some where but not further checked.
over upnp or via xml parser in one of the services/files:

Code: Select all

http://192.168.1.51:52235/rcr/RemoteControlReceiver.xml
http://192.168.1.51:52235/MainTVServer2/MainTVServer2Desc.xml

Hi,

I know RemoteControlReceiver.xml and I use this to show a more user friendly TV name in my connection menu instead of an IP address.

http://192.168.1.51:52235/MainTVServer2 ... r2Desc.xml is new to me, thanks! I will try this out.

There are lots of xml adresses files the TV offers in order to retrieve information.
Is there any list here on this site, which contains all xml addresses that the TV offers?

Thanks
Schani

don't think so, then most people use some suspicious upnp tools. but you can easy check with ls -Rla /mtd_rwarea/dlna* on the device.
list what i saw in some tests...

Code: Select all

    '/dmr/SamsungMRDesc.xml',  /* on all devices? ($xml->device->friendlyName) */
    '/pmr/PersonalMessageReceiver.xml', 
    '/rcr/RemoteControlReceiver.xml', /* D-Series & e-Series? */
    '/MainTVServer2/MainTVServer2Desc.xml' /* on some D-Series ??? */

hi,

thanks for the advice, but /MainTVServer2/MainTVServer2Desc.xml does not work with my TV.
Should I changed sth. on my TV before?

I installed the DeviceSpy app to check all capabilities of the TV, but there is no entry with that path.

as you can see in the comment (/* <> */) on some d-series it exists (guess D7000 and higher)

It must be possible, since the original Samsung Android App is able to retrieve a list of all installed apps on my TV.

There must be a different way to do that. I think i must use wireshark to find out how it works.

Hi,

I have a questions about the Keycodes. I need the Keycodes for the key SOCIAL and key SEARCH.
I looked at the SamyGo Remote sources, but cant find them.

Does anyone know the key codes?
