Samsung has released the SDK (version 1.500) for US Developer Conference and we found some bugs in the functions of the visual component and it’s behaviour.

We have now fixed the issues and relelase the SDK 1.510 version for your use.

For 2010 Internet@TV products, it is also possible to use SDK version 1.3 and 1.500 versions.

From SDK (version 1.5) we also provide the visual editor, including 13 visual components and you don’t have to input security key for installation.

The objective of the SDK is to help the development of Apps within Internet@TV.

By using the SDK you can develop Apps (f.ex. Widget or flash) and transfer them directly to TV.
