Topic: Insignia Infocast Private Widget?
I purchased an 8” Insignia Infocast over the weekend so I may do some Chumby hacking. I have written and tested a simple Hello World SWF application, but am completely at a loss as how to get it to load on the Infocast. I am having a terrible feeling that the only widgets I may run on this device (through the control panel) are the official ones available for download. I have spent over five hours researching where the profile.xml can load from, and none of these work despite my control panel having a rev of 3.1.21 (the USB one should work in all cases).
Starting with Control Panel 2.8.75, it will look for:
/tmp/profile.xml
/mnt/usb/profile.xml
/mnt/storage/profile.xml
/psp/profile.xml
...in that order, the first match will be used.
I guess I can’t write my own personal apps for the Infocast? How do developers test their apps? I am not necessarily asking for any specific help here other than a confirmation that a developer can test his 800x600 widget through the control panel on the Infocast.
I have confirmed my widget loads via:
stop_control_panel
chumbyflashplayer.x -i <path or URL to your widget>
