So.....I bought a new TU8000.  Tizen newbie here.
I keep all my TV/Movies in shares on a Synology Diskstation NAS.
I usually watch through Kodi (on a MeCool box running CoreElec), which I was hoping to do away with now.

What I care about:  1) being able to have menu options which map to my file shares, 2) be able to view in a folder/file list, and 3) sort by either date added OR name.

1 is not problem, but I can't seem to have 2 and 3 together.

I've tried, and I've searched.......
I just can not work out how to get Samsung Tizen to give me this. Sure, I can use Plex. I'm not a big fan, but it comes close. But that also does not seem to give me a folder/file list view AND the ability to sort by date OR name.
Synology's DS Video is available on the Samsung, but is not real nice, and similar limitations.

So at this point, it's continue with my Kodi box for NAS TV/films rather than relying on the Samsung Tizen. I was hoping to remove a device from my setup.

If anyone has any helpful ideas/advice, or tell me what I am missing, it would be most appreciated.

      Is it possible to do step-forward and step-rewind with TV's remote control on a video in Tizen browser?
      By Dzejbi
      Is it possible to do step-forward and step-rewind with TV's remote control on a video in Tizen browser?
      For example, when I open any video from www.Twitter.com on iPhone (in full screen), nice controls for step-forward / step-rewind show up (screenshot attached).
      But I couldn't find similar feature when opening video from www.twitter.com on Tizen browser in SamsungTV.
      Can it be achieved? Maybe there's a workaround? Maybe I should install a different browser on Tizen?

      3rd party smart remotes do not work with Tizen?
      By girizgah
      Hi, i recently bought Samsung 65q80b. I had a great smart remote with full keyboard, air mouse and IR learning functions. But neither multimedia buttons nor OK button works on new tv. I think these 3rd party remotes execute "left click" when you press OK. And Tizen doesn't record mouse clicks? Any hope about possible fw update in near future or any suggestion? Thanks.

To date, around 200 million people from 197 countries are using Samsung Smart TVs powered by Tizen, and, the number is expected to expand with the latest addition of Tizen-powered smart TVs.
