Question
I need TV Extension 2.4 for my Samsung TV development, but the download link is unavailable in the archive. According to the TV model groups table, my TV requires TV Extension 2.4. When I try using TV Extension 3.0 instead, I encounter a "closed" error when attempting to publish my web app to the TV. This same error is described in another forum post. How can I obtain TV Extension 2.4 or resolve this compatibility issue?
Answer
Problem Understanding
The user is facing two main issues:
- TV Extension 2.4 is required for their specific TV model but unavailable for download
- Using TV Extension 3.0 results in a "closed" error during web app publishing
Solution Methods
-
Using Previous IDE Versions:
- Download and install Tizen SDK 2.4 Rev8 or Tizen Studio 1.2 from the archive
- Archive link: http://download.tizen.org/sdk/Installer/

Using Newer SDK Version:

Additional Tips
