Install SmartHub Widgets through FTP?

Hi,

I have SamyGO working on my LED TV, I was wondering if I have an application from another region (say for example Hulu, America) can I install it on the TV without changing the store location. May be trough FTP, but at which location and are there any specific commands needed to be executed in order that smart hub recognizes those new apps?

If i extract the Hulu.America.zip file to the widgets folder, will it work? the ones that the TV installed have strange names like 100101111008.

Thanks,
A

I think you should add this as user widgets. Then might will work. (edit config.xml and add <type>user</type>), then copy to /widgets/user/

Tried with the googleTicker, works, but you'll have to turn on and off the TV to update smarthub icons..

Will try with any region app later.
