Glyde62 48 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 I'm trying to install this on my HT-E6750W Home Theater system. Within the SmartHub, the first instructions in the OP were correct for logging in, but found the other options in slightly different places. There is no Blue Button option. Instead, I pressed Tools on the remote, went to Settings, Developers, ticked Accept (left arrow, enter, right arrow, enter), and then the options (Settings Server IP and User Application Syncronisation) appeared. It appears to have downloaded the app (scrollbar filled from left to right), but it just sits there and goes no further. I very quickly skimmed through the posts this thread, so I hope I didn't miss other people having the same issue as the installation appearing to hang. I've left it about 5 minutes now, should I wait longer? Any ideas? EDIT: If it would help, I could take some photo's of the screens. EDIT2: I've uploaded the photo's in order here with captions: https://plus.google.com/photos/111148102794634514743/albums/5998308342098479153 EDIT3: I've ended up powering off and on the Home Theater unit after it stayed on the last screen (see photos via link above) for over an hour. I did exactly what you did and it worked fine on my UA55ES7100 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ginjaninja 533 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 (edited) 0.400d works great for me on 2012 tv re fwd wind doing skip....rather than fast forward..doesnt stop working..reasonable halfway house. Would be good to see an overlay to confirm time elapsed / remaining after ffwd. Feature request: amount to fast foward subject to media size. Perhaps 1/20 of media length. Or use another button as a modifer 1min/5min/15 min. With random access media if ffwd and rwnd is difficult to make work accross loads of models, imo time skip is 99% as useful, esp. If it works.

ronvp 92 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 0.4 installed and much more intuitive with the cursor keys selecting the menus.. Still have a few issues with the player not playing some files.. most seems to be around 480P content.. There are some media folders that can not be accessed; Movie Trailers (from the plugin) and my Music video's. This maybe because I have multiple music videos in a single directory..

Ghostm 74 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Has the look changed since the screenshots in the first page? If so can we see new ones? Still looks the same.

chessdragon136 677 Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 Some pages are under a redesign as I'm struggling with other elements and need a break... @@Ghostm -> Subs are currently not supported - To show subtitles I need to transcode the files, which currently isn't implemented. This latest update has paved the way massively for me to implement it as I now have complete control over which files play natively and which don't. Now I need a GUI interface and selections to select transcoding of subtitles. Not easy. It will be done. Just not entirely sure when. It is however important to me too as I have a lot of Anime and foreign films 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I edited my post basically mentioning how subtitles in plex anyway on samsung need to be transcoded and burnt in as they are not supported by samsung but it seems your well aware of all this afik samsung tvs at least from 2012 onwards do support embedded and external subtitles without transcoding. Indeed given how wide the samsungs support is for common containers and stream types, transcoding isnt desirable for most local content when bandwidth is not an issue.
