SS TV Remote
A TV remote control compatible with network-enabled Samsung TVs
What is SS TV Remote?
'SS TV Remote' is a Chrome extension originally designed to control network-enabled Samsung TVs. The extension offers features like multiple layouts, macro support, window preferences, and Google sync. However, it is no longer maintained or supported, as Chrome apps have been deprecated and the creator doesn't possess a Samsung TV anymore. However, users can still find some use in it or can be further developed by interested developers, with its open-source code freely available for modification.

Summary
Status: Not maintained. Chrome apps are deprecated, and I don't have a Samsung TV anymore. If this app still works for you, great! If it doesn't, I'm sorry, but I won't work on it anymore. If you're a developer, you are free to fork away the code and build your own remote.
This is a Chrome app to control a Samsung TV over the network.
- Open-source!
- Multiple layouts: choose the one most suited to you!
- Flexible size: the window is resizable and the contents will adapt to any size.
- Macro support: a single button can send a sequence of key presses to the TV (e.g. raise the volume 4 times).
- Option to keep the window always on top.
- Option to display the window on all workspaces (on platforms that support it, i.e. anything but Windows).
- Chrome sync: the options are saved in your Google account.
