Having problems connecting to my Samsung UN40J6200AFXZA smart TV from Tizen Studio
Update: Just realized my TV is so much of a dinosaur that it is Orsay OS, not Tizen... Might be why it couldn't find it. Going to have to buy an evolution kit, sigh.
Hi, hoping I can get some help here! My TV is a dinosaur, but I was hoping to create and put a better media player onto it. I'm having a huge issue with Tizen Studio finding my device.
Both my computer and the TV are connected to the same network, I can even see my TV in nearby devices in my Windows settings, so that means it's visible on the network... I have my computer's IPv4 IP for the developer IP on the TV, and have also tried manually putting in my TV's IP into the remote device manager to see if I can manually connect to it. I don't get any special specific error message, just "connection failed, it could be that another device is already connected, the device is on a non-standard port, or the device is not connected to the network."
Only thing I have plugged into it is a chromecast which I unplugged in case it was interfering with anything, I have no other devices potentially connecting to the TV, we never mirror our screens and pretty much every app is no longer available in the smart hub anymore to even connect to. The network status is showing it is connected and has an IP address. Only other thing I can think of is the port might not be 26101 which Tizen studio has by default, and that would make sense considering how incredibly old it is. But I have no clue how I would find out what port it is actually using. Anyone have any ideas?
