Feel free to make corrections to this page but try to Keep It Short and Simple
(sentence stolen from How to get root access on a C series TV;-)


Introduction

Modern Samsung TV firmware consist of two components:

  • an embedded Linux with a limited command set as basic operation system
  • dsp.exe running on a Digital Signal Processor for all Televison related stuff
All Hacks try to modify the builtin Linux to run commands on your request.
Most hacks inject a modified usb_hotlug.sh script excuting a script if an USB Storage Device is plugged in.

If you want to learn more about your C-Series TV read SamyGO_for_DUMMIES, The_C_Series_Wiki and visit the Forum for C-Series.

You find a qiuck overview of working Hack's for you TV Model at the Compatibility Table.
