Luke 28673 Posted September 29, 2019 Author Share Posted September 29, 2019 Hi, please move if I've posted in the wrong place.. I have an ua82nu8000 and have grown sick of the dlna experience so was intending to install the Emby app. Alas I'm in Australia so it's not available through Samsung.. "Oh cool! The Emby website and forums all say I can sideload it via USB! With instructions for Samsung Tizen SmartTVs (2015 - Present)! Mines included in that! Yay! " I thought for about 10 minutes Download files -unzipped to usb -plugged into TV following the instructions and.... NOTHING No prompts, no messages, nothing installed. Try a different usb stick/format/port/fresh download. Nothing. Check website and forums... No mention of limitations or issues. Dlna (still with no TRUE folder view ) it is I guess. Are you sure you have a Tizen unit? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostByte 3333 Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Assuming that model is correct then it's a 2018 Tizen. However, there have been several people with that same model who have installed it with no problem so we may need to figure out where the problem is 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrostByte 3333 Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 (edited) First of all Luke just copied 1.0.67 out there a little while ago so you may want to redownload it unless just did. After you formatted and unzipped the files the structure was like root \userwidget \userwidget\emby.tmg \userwidget\widget.license Also, was the usb drive unlocked/writeable Edited September 29, 2019 by FrostByte 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrostByte 3333 Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 The latest wasn't out there 8 hours ago, but that probably isn't going to help with this 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostByte 3333 Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 I'm guessing you went into the installed apps section in settings and didn't see there either 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarlM 2 Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Just tried again with another freshly d/l zip. Same outcome, zero response from the tv. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostByte 3333 Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Strange, because even if my disk is empty a box will pop up in the upper right hand corner and ask if I want to browse the files on my usb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrostByte 3333 Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Many times. Searched everywhere for it and no luck Do you have a Samsung account and are you logged on with it? Is the TV connected to the Internet? I'm running out of ideas This is where you should see it once in finally installs. Then you can add a shortcut to Home Apps Settings (gear icon top right corner) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlM 2 Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Sorry, had to get some sleep. Do you have a Samsung account and are you logged on with it?Yes. No, not logged in. I think I only ever have once, found no benefit so logged out ever since. Is the TV connected to the Internet? Always. Ethernet to Synology rt2600ac. I'm running out of ideas This is where you should see it once in finally installs. Then you can add a shortcut to Home Apps Settings (gear icon top right corner) Me too! Apps list hasn't changed. Scrolling all the way left and right to find it and nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostByte 3333 Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Okay. You could try logging on, but I'm not sure that's the answer either. It's got to be something simple. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlM 2 Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Success! Extracted zip to 128gb USB3.0 (also had a folder with 2 or 3 images) inserted while tv was on and it installed immediately! Thanks, your feedback made me persevere and now we know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flakie 11 Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Just installed the latest Samsung Emby userwidget 1.0.69 - Quick test shows works flawlessly, as it does every time for me. Though with my older TV I do have to remove the old version and restart the TV before the latest will install (otherwise the TV just informs me a USB media device has been connected). The newer TV upgrades with no issues. Thanks guys for these regular updates 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
