Link Parameter Processing

Situation Description

In the SmartPlayer personal account, users have access to link-based content. This content type has specific parameters that users need to configure manually. Now, users have the ability to do so. On this page, users can learn about link settings in the SmartPlayer personal account.

As of (12.2024), this functionality is implemented for all operating systems supported by SmartPlayer (Android, Windows, Linux, Raspberry PI, Tizen, Web OS).

Step-by-Step Guide

To configure link-based content, users must first log in to the SmartPlayer personal account.
The next step is to find the "Content" section in the personal account.
