Is there a "hacker" for hire? Help

So, I suppose you have installed XAMPP.
Now create a file with past and copy from below and name it as widget.xml.

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<rsp stat="ok">
<list>
   <widget id="SamyGO">
       <title>SamyGO</title>
       <compression size="100000" type="zip"/>
       <description></description>
       <download>http://tinyurl.com/SamyGO/SamyGO.zip</download>
   </widget>
</list>
</rsp>

Take this file and copy it to \htdocs folder.

When you are here post again.

OK I created the xml file and it is saved to htdocs. Now I have XAMPP running with Apache. Do I run MySQL too or not? Now I changed the IP address on the TV to the IP address on my laptop with XAMPP (198.168.1.101 If I enter that IP on my web browser on my laptop it goes to the XAMPP for Windows page.) So is this the right IP? When I try to sync on the TV it says "unable to connect to server"

I need step by step instructions for this part as I am not proficient when it comes to this

I wonder why you didn't try the USB installation Version, if you have so much hassle with this...

This works for most of us...

OK I tried the USB load and nothing. I installed the "InstallSamygo.rar" file to my USB stick (formated FAT) connected it to the TV, turned it on, went to HUB and no widget is found. Am I doing this right? This is a bit frustrating...

[fluffi444]

Be sure that the Folder "InstallSamygo" (and there the files and folders inside) is on the stick. Just extract the RAR directly onto the (empty) stick.

Turn off TV. Plug USB. Start TV. Find Install Widget in Smart Hub.

If its not there leave the stick plugged and restart again and see if the Install Widget is then there....

If the TV ask you to update Smart Hub do NOT let him do that! Otherwise the Install Widget is away again!

OK I'm still confused. When I download the "InstallSamyGo.rar" form the "archive" link on the install page it is just the rar file. The other "SamyGo.zip" file is downloaded from a completely different link. (pictures shown below)

Then on the USB stick I paste the rar file and then extract the SamyGo.zip and this is what it looks like on the USB stick

Please let me know if this is correct. I have tried a few different variations of this and I still have no luck. I am obviously not doing something correctly.

[fluffi444]

What the hell are you doing??? Yes you are confused!

Please do it like it is mentioned in the first post of this thread! Forget the file "Samygo.zip"!

Only extract (not only copy) the File InstallSamyGo.rar to USB stick that it looks like on my picture...

By the way: Could it be that you don't know what a RAR file is? Its also an compressed file format. Use WinRAR (for instance) to extrat it! Looks like your system don't know this format.
So first of all install WinRAR (use google to find it)

OK thank you for that kick in the ass, I needed it It was successfully installed on my TV. Now with this installed what are my options? My goal was to be able to regain access to stream full length movies form my computer again (as I lost the ability when the last firmware upgrade 1029 from Samsung). What would my next step be? By the way thank you very much for the help...

Normaly SAMBA Server works out of the box.
Just SHARE (for everyone) your Windows Folder were your Movies are.

If the Virt. USB (press "SOURCES" on TV control) didn't find you SHARES of your PC try this:

Download FTP client (FileZilla is good) to modify files if needed.

FTP Accsess to TV: <IP of your TV> User: root // pass: <leave it emty>

This is the folder of main interest if you need to make some changes (for instance fixed IP for faster shares finding)
ftp://root@<IP of your TV>/mnt/etc/init.d/

In this file:
04_04_samba.init
Set User and pass - nothing else for the beginning

Code: Select all

##### CHANGE MEEEEE !!!!! ######
USER="<User of your PC>"
PASSWD="<Pass of your PC>"
PERM="rw" # can be ro or rw
##### CHANGE MEEEEE END ######

If you edit the file (take Notepadd++ for this), move it to PC, edit it, and move it back to TV overwriting the existing file.

There is also an optimizded samba script from zoelchat - But lets start from the beginning - I think you need it

Otherwise... Read Read and Read here... Everything needed was already said before... Not everthing at one place but still findable...

These threads are helpfull...

I still cannot play full length movies. My TV says "The file you've selected is not currently supported". I read somewhwere in wiki that this is due to my current firmware version (1029) TV is a UN55ES7100. Also that if I roll back to the firmware to an older version it should correct this problem. Is that correct?

I am currently using Windows Media Player on Windows 7 to stream videos to my TV... Should I just be using Samba?
