debugging for HiSense

set up

To debug on HiSense, we are assuming that you already have the VIDAA DevKit app installed and that the app you want to test is installed on the TV.

Make sure your HiSense TV and PC are on the same network.

Launch your app in test.

chrome inspect

On the TV, go to Settings -> Network -> Advanced Options and take note of the IP Address of the TV.

On your PCs browser, enter http://(TVIP):9226 (ex: http://1.2.3.4:9226) in the address bar.

A page with the text: Inspectable WebContents will appear.

A button labeled App Name and Content Title on the Inspectable WebContents page will appear below that.

Click that button and it will open the Chrome Inspect window.

network logs

Go to the Network tab of the Chrome Inspect window.

Now we can see the network traffic as we perform any actions within the app.

To save the network logs, select the Export HAR downward arrow button.

Name your file and select Save.

You can open this file now with Charles.
