lcd panel for samsung tv free sample

Users can control their Samsung Smart TVs with the Samsung Smart Remote or a standard remote control. Users can also use external input devices, such as a mouse or touchpad, to operate their TVs for some features or apps. In particular, mouse input is only available in a web browser and games/apps that support pointing interactions.

Because the Smart Remote is constantly evolving, buttons and features other than the basic buttons are subject to change. Hence, in order to make applications that are not restricted by a locale or the TV model, only use the basic buttons described in Basic Controls.

The on-screen number pad should appear when users press the 123 button on the Smart Remote. However, it is not easy for users to quickly display and manipulate the on-screen number pad to input numbers. It is not user-friendly, and quick manipulation is difficult. For this reason, designing the application to use only the basic TV buttons detailed in Table 3-1 will improve the usability of the application.

As an efficient navigation method for users to view multiple groups of items on the same screen, tab UI consists of tabs and related pages (or content lists). Tabs are a list of categories and allow users to easily switch between different content lists. There are two interaction types depending on when the system displays the related content list of the focused category.

When the user puts a finger on the POINTER button, the pointer will be displayed on the TV screen. Moving the remote while continuing to touch the remote control will then move the pointer. Pressing the POINTER button will select the object that the pointer is hovering over.

In a TV environment where the screen and the user (and their input device) are far apart, it may not be easy to select objects by using pointing. For this reason, if you wish to apply pointing to your application, you must design the selectable objects to be large enough and with reasonably large gaps between them so that they will be easy to navigate via pointing.

If the pointer is released outside an object, then the object is not selected. When the pointer moves away from the object before releasing, the rollover effect (e.g. highlight or zoom) is removed, which indicates that the object will not be selected when the pointer is released.

Dragging is performed by holding down an object and then moving the pointer passed a predetermined threshold. The direction and distance of dragging is the same as the direction and length of the red dotted line as shown below.

Before dragging starts, the pointer position must move from the location where the initial hold down action was performed. The object position is adjusted to compensate for the pointer position change before dragging starts.

During pointing interactions, all screens must have an EXIT button (icon type) in the upper-right corner of the screen. If a user clicks the EXIT button, it closes the application and returns to the TV screen.

During pointing interactions, all screens except for the top-level screen must have a RETURN button (icon type) in the upper-left corner of the screen. If a user clicks the RETURN button, it returns to the previous screen.

Samsung Smart TV Legacy Plarform is a platform that integrates Internet and web features in TVs and set-top boxes, as well as provides a way for technological convergence between those TVs and other devices like computers, smartphones and tablets.

Developer can stream Audio or Video content through TV app in realtime. The guide will cover information about how to apply Streaming, different containers and decoders supported by TV, configuring MP3 live streaming, HTTP Adaptive Streaming (HAS) applications and many more.

The tutorial also demonstrates the use of the video features of the Samsung Apps service. These are needed to create various kinds of applications, like video catch-up services and User Created Content (UCC) services.

PlayReady® is a content access and protection technology that is the successor to WM DRM (Windows(R) Media Digital Rights Management). It provides new, advanced, and frequently-requested features, such as domain control, embedded licenses, and the ability to protect a wide range of content types and formats.

In the context of Smart TV, interactivity means controlling the TV with a device other than the remote control, e.g. a smartphone. There is a dedicated application provided by Samsung for various mobile operating systems (Samsung Remote for Android, Samsung SmartView for iPhone and iPad). It lets users control their TVs with a mobile device acting as a remote control with extended functionalities. An article with description of interactive remote functionalities can be found in Interactivity document.

Since 2012, high-end Samsung Smart TV models are equipped with built-in camera and microphone. It is possible to interact with Smart TV using voice and gesture control commands.

Voice control allows the user to control the Smart TV using voice commands. It is also possible to use a special remote control with a microphone (Smart Remote). Voice recognition operates in two modes:

Server mode: It is a free speech-to-text mode in which a voice sample is sent to a server where it is recognized and returned as text; server recognition is available for many languages.

When using Motion Control, the TV and application controls can be used without the need for remote controls or other input devices. There are two types of Motion Control, one for using one hand and the other for using two hands.

The Convergence Framework enables bidirectional communication between a TV and other devices to exchange messages, including file attachments. This communication is based on a messaging system, which is described in detail in Messaging System.

The Convergence Framework makes it possible for devices connected to a network to discover each other using UPnP, and then communicate over HTTP using RESTful interfaces. The Convergence API includes the following communication types:

Single Sign-On is a mechanism for managing the user account information for Smart TV applications. The encrypted account information is saved in a database and is available to respective applications. Thanks to this, the user doesn’t have to repeatedly re-enter personal information.

IME (Input Method Editor) is a common module which enables text input in applications. Smart TV users can enter text using a remote control. IME displays a virtual keyboard on the screen (qwerty or mobile phone style) and maps the remote controller’s input to appropriate characters.

While a developer creates a Samsung Smart TV app and Javascript function can not support functions such as volume control or channel change, Application, an API supported by Samsung engine, enable to use the functions with method call easily. The API reference can be found in Application API.

Enables applications to use the file input/output system supported by the Samsung TV application engine to store data they get while they are still working, and restore the data anytime they want.

Provides a REST-based interface allowing devices supporting the HTTP protocol to communicate with a Smart TV. Devices discover Samsung TVs on the local network using the UPnP discovery.

A JavaScript based project that includes the Samsung Smart TV CAPH(Web UI Framework). CAPH(Web UI Framework) provides a high level wrapper for Smart TV’s APIs and general Smart TV application logic, which is supposed to make the development process easier.

A project template for writing applications in pure JavaScript and/or use frameworks of your own choice. Developing a Smart TV application requires at least two files to be present in the project: index.html and config.xml.

The target device to run the application is a TV and therefore it is advisable to also use it while testing the application. If it is not possible to run the application on a TV, you can test your application on the Emulator. Testing on the Emulator can be used as an indication of possible errors in the application. It also takes less time to verify the application using the Emulator, as it is not required to transfer the application to a device. There are Emulators of each platform version delivered together with the Samsung Smart TV SDK. Thanks to that, it is possible to run the application in an environment that is very similar to the platform version, in case you have no access to the hardware.

You can either use the Samsung Smart TV SDK JS debugger tool, or Web Inspector tools that you can access in the 2012 Emulator’s debug mode. Please refer to those articles to find more information about how to use the JS debugger or Web Inspector tools:

Samsung currently provides a 3 year standard limited warranty, but the warranty period may vary by country. Please contact your local Samsung representative to check the standard warranty period applicable for your country.

Samsung warrants that the Product will be free from manufacturing defects in material and workmanship during the abovementioned warranty period and fit for being used as commercial digital signage.

2) repair (at Samsung’s own or Samsung’s Authorized Service Center(ASC)), or replace (using new or refurbished replacement parts or Products) any defect within a reasonable period of time and free of charge.

Generally, On-Site Repair Service is the default service for any Product requiring repair during the applicable warranty period. However, depending on the installed Product, location, environment and any special contract terms, there could be other services available such as Carry-In or Pick-up & Return.

The average TAT for Service Response is D+1 business days. Service Response means first response to a request (phone, e-mail, technical support website and / or verbal).

Samsung shall aim for a Service Repair TAT of D+5 business days, provided however, additional time may be required, due to, by way of example, limitations in transportation/personnel availability, inaccessibility of location, locations requiring special access authorization (i.e. duty free stores), repeatability of the problem, and inaccurate description of the problem provided. Samsung will use its best efforts to solve the problem during its first on-site visit.

In the event Samsung experiences or foresees such delay, Samsung shall notify the customer and the Parties shall discuss in good faith to arrive at a resolution including a new delivery schedule.

This limited warranty begins on the original date of purchase, and is valid only on Products purchased directly from Samsung or through Samsung’s authorized partners. To receive warranty service, the customer must contact Samsung for problem determination and service procedures. Warranty service can only be performed by a Samsung ASC. The original dated bill of sale must be presented upon request as proof of purchase to Samsung or Samsung’s ASC. In the event that no proof of purchase can be presented to Samsung, the limited warranty will commence from the date of manufacture specified on the Product.

All replaced parts and Products shall become the property of Samsung and must be returned to Samsung. The repaired or replaced parts or Products assume the remaining original warranty.

In principle, cross-border shipments/installation by our partners are not allowed. ‘Cross-border shipment/installation’ is defined as when a customer purchases a Product from one Samsung subsidiary and then ships and installs it in another country. The Samsung subsidiary in the country of installation will not provide local services as our service policy is only available for Products locally purchased.

However, if the conditions specified below are agreed to between Samsung Electronics HQ and customer, Samsung can provide ‘Multi-country Deal Service Support’ on approved cases. Please note that ‘Multi-country Deal Service Support’ is an exception that cannot be applied in all countries. Customer shall discuss with the Samsung global account manager before any cross-border shipments and installation. If you are a customer located in the EEA, UK and Switzerland, please refer to the Addendum for B2B sales in Europe below.

Second, Multi-country Deal Service agreements need to be made between customer and Samsung Sales subsidiaries prior to shipment of the Product. It is expected from the customer to provide the model code, serial number and installation site information to Samsung Electronics HQ and the applicable Samsung sales subsidiary. This is because not all Samsung subsidiaries have service parts or trained service technicians for the Product model the customer purchased. Samsung sales subsidiary needs to make sure all of these are prepared and well-arranged at the local subsidiary in the country of installation before the project starts. Without these arrangements made in advance, the local Samsung subsidiary will refuse to provide local support on faulty screens.

Third, if the customer considers warranty extensions, it must be purchased upon screen purchase at the local service providing subsidiary. (Local service providing subsidiary is the Samsung subsidiary in the country of installation) For example, if the screen was purchased in Sweden and installed in USA, the customer must purchase Extended Warranty in USA at the time of screen purchase unless otherwise negotiated with Samsung Electronics HQ Global account manager. Extended Warranty cannot be transferred between two Samsung subsidiaries. For example, if screen and Extended Warranty were purchased in Sweden and installed in USA, the screen will not receive warranty extensions in USA.

Smart Signage Products sold by the Samsung sales subsidiary may or may not be imported to other countries due to different product standards, safety regulations and environmental certificates requested by the local customs office. Samsung is not accountable for such events or documents/certificates that local customs office requires. Customer shall conduct its own due diligence regarding this issue.

Samsung subsidiaries cannot hold / stock materials that are used for services or maintenance. Thus, in order to prevent any delay in local service, Samsung recommends customer and its System Integrator partners to hold/ stock 3% buffer units of total volume of this project.

Customer agrees that services outside of the country of purchase may be delayed. The Samsung subsidiary providing such services shall not be liable to customer for such delays.

Customer has the responsibility of sharing Products" serial number with Samsung sales subsidiary. The information will be given to local service providing subsidiaries to meet Multi-country Deal services.

By requesting this Multi-country Deal Service Support, customer acknowledges and accepts the risks of Cross-border projects and agrees to provide the necessary information to receive Multi-country Deal Service Support.

Samsung is not liable for any warranty service delay caused by embargos, quarantines, pandemic, strike, inability to obtain materials or utilities, war, terrorism, civil disturbance, fire, flood, earthquake, water, wind, lightning or other acts of nature, or any other cause beyond Samsung’s reasonable control.

This limited warranty is a standard application of Samsung. No other third party (including any agent, distributor or sales representative) is authorized to make any representations or warranties that are different from this limited warranty. Unless otherwise confirmed by Samsung in written forms of contract or other documents, any warranty clauses that conflict with this limited warranty shall be deemed to be automatically invalid. Final power of interpretation of this limited warranty shall be vested in Samsung.

THERE ARE NO EXPRESS WARRANTIES OTHER THAN THOSE LISTED AND DESCRIBED ABOVE, AND NO WARRANTIES WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, SHALL APPLY AFTER THE EXPRESS WARRANTY PERIODS STATED ABOVE, AND NO OTHER EXPRESS WARRANTY OR GUARANTEE GIVEN BY ANY PERSON, FIRM OR CORPORATION WITH RESPECT TO THIS PRODUCT SHALL BE BINDING ON SAMSUNG. SAMSUNG SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR LOSS OF REVENUE OR PROFITS, FAILURE TO REALIZE SAVINGS OR OTHER BENEFITS, OR ANY OTHER SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES CAUSED BY THE USE, MISUSE OR INABILITY TO USE THIS PRODUCT, REGARDLESS OF THE LEGAL THEORY ON WHICH THE CLAIM IS BASED, AND EVEN IF SAMSUNG HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. NOR SHALL RECOVERY OF ANY KIND AGAINST SAMSUNG BE GREATER IN AMOUNT THAN THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE PRODUCT SOLD BY SAMSUNG AND CAUSING THE ALLEGED DAMAGE. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, CUSTOMER ASSUMES ALL RISK AND LIABILITY FOR LOSS, DAMAGE OR INJURY TO CUSTOMER AND CUSTOMER’S PROPERTY AND TO OTHERS AND THEIR PROPERTY ARISING OUT OF THE USE, MISUSE OR INABILITY TO USE THIS PRODUCT SOLD BY SAMSUNG NOT CAUSED DIRECTLY BY THE NEGLIGENCE OF SAMSUNG. THIS LIMITED WARRANTY SHALL NOT EXTEND TO ANYONE OTHER THAN THE ORIGINAL CUSTOMER OF THIS PRODUCT, IS NON-TRANSFERABLE AND STATES YOUR EXCLUSIVE REMEDY

Samsung offers a 3-year warranty on business display/signage products as standard. For B2B Monitors and Hotel TVs, the warranty period may vary depending on the product and region; you will need to check the exact warranty period of the product you purchased.

This is a pan-European warranty. This means that customers who purchase products from a Samsung subsidiary in the EEA, UK and Switzerland can make a service claim under the warranty against other Samsung subsidiaries in the EEA, UK and Switzerland. For the avoidance of doubt, other countries in Europe (e.g. ex CIS and ex FYR states outside of the EEA) will be subject to the global policy.

For instance, if a customer purchases signage from Samsung Germany, and installs them in France, then they can obtain service under the warranty form Samsung France and its network of authorized service centres. (While the core obligations are the same under the pan-European warranty, the service would be subject to the French warranty terms which may differ in certain details).

For the avoidance of doubt, this guidance supersedes the global cross-border service guidelines which may be issued to global Samsung partners from time to time, and which apply outside of Europe only.

Different rules apply to extended warranties, which can be purchased at the same time as the display product, or shortly thereafter. These extend the coverage to a maximum 5-year period depending on the product in question. However, this extension arises from a direct contract between you and the relevant Samsung entity which sold the extended warranty. The extension does not bind any other Samsung entities and you can only seek repair or replacement from the Samsung entity in the country of purchase.

To follow the above example, if a customer purchases a display product with an extended warranty in Germany, and installs it in France, the customer will only be able to make a claim under the extended warranty (in year 3, 4 or 5) from Samsung Germany. Obtaining service would likely cause the customer incur additional transportation costs.
