Allan Cameron 40 Posted January 4, 2014 Posted January 4, 2014 (edited) I hope you get some results, unfortunately I don't have the knowledge or ability ability to help. But I would love to see MB3 on my LG smartTV as Plex is already there and I would prefer MP3. Just an example of what can be done on these new smart TVs. Plex for LG smartTV http://plex.h3consulting.net/screenshots.html I am using it now and it runs fantastic and it's not even finished yet. Still working out the bugs. Simon will be submitted the client to LG for the app store soon as testing is complete. Not trying to promote Plex here as I am definitely a MB3 fan. I just want developers here to see what can be done on these new smartTVs and that new plex client is a perfect example. Can you imagine MB3 on my Smart TV? Wow ...would love it!!

Cheesegeezer 3104 Posted January 4, 2014 Posted January 4, 2014 Just to add that samsung and lg both dev programming environments and also emulators so there is no requirement to actually own one of these tv's, the just need html5 & java programming knowledge. 1
Luke 42077 Posted January 4, 2014 Posted January 4, 2014 I just need someone to help by signing up and creating a post similar to what i did on open elec. if you know how to do that, then you can help with this.
Luke 42077 Posted January 4, 2014 Posted January 4, 2014 For those who are interested in seeing an MB3 app on their smart tv, we need help recruiting JavaScript developers to take this on. Is there someone who can help promote us in these two forums? http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?3-JavaScript http://www.codingforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2 This is an example of what's needed: http://openelec.tv/forum/90-miscellaneous/67673-media-browser-client-for-openelec Intro + github link + some pretty screenshots Someone step up!

Keys to success are: - Short, no long paragraphs - bullet points - github link (will resonate with developers) - no begging (the project has to appeal to them, they're not here to serve you) - pretty screenshots help a lot (take some from the github link)
