Hi Alexandra,

You need to unzip the widget in the folder /devwidgets and then restart the simulator. If everything is fine, you should see the widget loaded correctly. Make sure you follow the folder structure as mentioned in the documentation. For more doubts, please go through http://developer.yahoo.com/connectedtv/quickstart/CTV_QS_Getting_Started.html. You can always ask anything in the forum, people will surely help you out. 

Cheers,

so i added it to /home/ and unzipped the content of the widget there... but still: all i get is an empty black screen when starting the simulator :'(

I have a PC with a Ubuntu installation on a partition. So genuinie Linux.

But I am not too familiar with Linux as you might have guessed ;).

On Ubuntu I have folders just as in Windows.

Cheers & thx,

As mockware wrote, create a folder devwidgets in the root directory.

cd /
sudo mkdir devwidgets

Unzip the widget there and restart the simulator.

Thanks,
Vivek
