Has anyone hooked a Samsung S5 to an HDTV via the official adapter? I was curious if it allowed a Flixster movie to go through the HDMI. I know physically it should be able to, but I'm worried there might be some copyright walls that block it. IE: I can't watch HD Ultraviolet versions of movies via Flixster on my computer but I can on my phone.

I know, it sucks, the time warner app wont allow me to connect phone or tablet to connect to tv hdmi, sucks... I am sure MOST if not all apps have that limitation.

never tried S5 though, to answer you question.

Thanks. Looks like hacking is the only way.

Why must they make legitimate, paying users suffer!?!?
