Open file with installed applications

Hello,

I've developed a file browser web application that lets you run files with the applications that are installed on your device.

This application works great in the mobile version, with the following:

var appControl = new tizen.ApplicationControl(
                        'http://tizen.org/appcontrol/operation/view',
                        path_to_file,
                        file_mime,
                        null,
                        null
                    );

but when I try to run in the TV version, I get that there is no suitable application to run my video / audio files.

Do I have to implement a video & audio player for my solution?

or is there a video & audio app that is downloadable and can be used to run my files?

P.S.

I have tried this only in the TV simulator.

 

Thank!

Hello, as far as I know there is a native video player in the TV.

Having an embedded player is not a bad idea either.

 

Please take a look at the following links:

Hi, 
I've seen the samples and they do work, but I don't want to develop a player of my own, I want to use the ones that are already installed on the device.
The samples can't play a file from the filesystem and the native player doesn't show up when I try to play my video files with the attached code.

You can look for the package name/app id for the native player and try your code again.

I searched and couldn't find any lead, but if you ask it in the TV forum they can help you.
