Hi I'm starting building Tizen application for Smart TV. The purpose of application basically will be to show html pages generated on my server. So application will retrieve html page and media content (images and videos) Then it will show everything on the Smart TV screen.
It also will include such functionality: - It will periodically do requests to check if content of particular page is changed so it will retrieve new version of the page if it is online, if TV screen is offline it will show existing content. - It will store any videos and images in TV's storage and load from TV instead of servers. So it is like caching for videos and images and html pages. - html pages from my server will contain also js code (will be used for Animations ), so it should be able to run it separately from Tizen's js. - Application will save cached html page with media files in TV screen and user can view previous states of the page. So my questions are: 1. What type of application should I start? Native (C++) or Web (html, js, css) ? It seems to me that Web app is enough for this type of app, but it is possible that we will add more functionality so user can interact with html content through TV (app will download html from server and then modify it so user can interact with it) . Is there any restrictions for Web app compared with Native in terms of TV's API usage? 2. If you built something like this do you have any advice what to use and where to start?
