This guide shows how to setup a Tizen-based Samsung SSSP Display for use with Blocks.

IMPORTANT Samsung SSSP displays have many limitations regarding supported block types, video performance, transitions, etc compared to the PIXILAB Player. Test actual or respresentative content on the display to make sure it performs as desired.

The example screenshots shown below are from Samsung QB43N model. Other models may have slightly different user interface. Please refer to Samsungs documentation for details.

First prepare a working environment with a, preferably using a Linux-based Blocks server, including DNS and DHCP as described under Creating a server, First Start and Advanced Configuration.

• Connect the display to the network.

• If the display is brand new, the setup wizard will start.

• Alternatively, if the display has been used previously, press menu on the remote, select System and Start Setup.

If this option is disabled, then you must first set the display's input to HDMI to enable it.

• Set your preferred language.

• Set your display orientation.

• Set auto power to off.

• Set the network to DHCP.

• Set the time and date.

• Set to play via URL launcher.

• Type http://pixi.guide/tizen in URL bar. Or, if your network/DNS isn't set up to resolve pixi.guide to your Blocks server, replace that domain name with the IP address of yor Blocks server.

• Name the display as desired.

• Click "Done" to close the guide.

Finally change the input source to "URL Launcher".

In order to control display power on/off from Blocks, Wake-on-LAN must be enabled on the display.

• Press "Menu" on the remote control.
• Locate the "Power" settings and set the "Network StandBy" option to off to keep the network adapter powered when the display is turned off. (Yes, setting this option to off to allow the display to be turned on is rather counter-intuitive.)
• Press "Home" on the remote control.
• Locate the "Device ID" setting.
• Set the PC connection cable option to "RJ45(LAN)/Wifi".
