I ment, you have to make http server on your home network. Here are a lot of ways to have such one. You can use
Mereo http server, very simple windows application. After you start it, you have to enable firewall to accept 80 port. Your root directory you have to set in Webroot (c:\www)
All right.
Next you have to place modified widget and widgetlist.xml:
Code: Select all
c:\www\widgetlist.xml
c:\www\Widgets\Today_modified.zip
Do not forget to write your IP address in file widgetlist.xml in this row:
Code: Select all
<download>http://192.168.0.1/Widget/Today_modified.zip</download>
good luck.

HEy guys,
I also was helping a little bit in a german board where some user wanted to downgrade in fact of the pvr settings.
So far some of them had success in downgrading and one user reported that after downgrading, and enabling the PVR function (set model to 6800)
One of them reported that updating the Firmware to 3003 (newest version from 9.11.2010) the run.sh function seems to be working without changing something ... so after firmware upgrade it seems that all the functions to start the run.sh from USB are working without any need to hack the TV again
I couldn?t confirm this by myself so far in fact of having no time today ... so this is just what I read in an german board, but as if this is true seems like samsung hasn?t reacted yet with their newest FW release!
Regards, Bastler

why this eliminates the option of recording to an NFS share
the subdir on you usb-pen
is your nfs share, or its not possible to select a folder for recording
thnx

No. You can't choose in what folder to place the recordings.
When a drive is prepared for recording, there are 2 dirs created in the root on your drive: CONTENTS (in here goes the recordings) and database (dunno, contains 2 small files)
You can't mount an NFS drive on the root of the usb drive, so if we want to record to an NFS drive, its needs to be mounted to the /dtv/usb/ dir.
and what's about mount your nfs into /dtv/usb/sda1/CONTENTS and not to /dtv/usb/sda1/nfs?

Another thing I noticed while trying is that when I mounted NFS to a subdir of the USB drive that was prepared for recording, I couldn't use the drive to play video files (other then my own recordings). Browing my recordings took ages (prob scanning all folders of my NFS mount)
This adds up to 2 USB devices plugged in: one for recording and one for providing a subdir for mounting NFS.
A bit of a disappointment because I was going for 0 devices, but I won't give up yet...
0 devices won't work for now, usb-gadget driver won't work on tv.

Hi,
how is the status about telnet when downgrading the firmware ? as described before everything seems to stay enabled when upgrading ... but is this the same when downgrading or is the widget stuff again needed after the downgrade to enable telnet ?
Greetz, Bastler
PS: Is there any news in fact of the DDC stuff ... or how to probably read the configuration Eeprom?

Hi,
hmm strange ... but somehow there has to be a way on how to read or write the Eeprom ...
Does anyone know where it is located at the Mainboard ?! probably reading with an external programmer would be possible ^^
Another thing I thought about ... is there a JTAG connector located somewhere ? or what is Samsung doing if the Firmware or the Bootloader completely is "crashed" wouldn?t it be good to have a possiblity to just reflash the device instead of changing the complete Mainboard ?
