I've been trying to figure out the details of streaming to my Samsung Smart TV.
Allshare streaming from device to TV. OK direct. Possible through Router?
- I can can direct link with my phone or PC to the TV using wireless and stream using Allshare.
- I can stream from my PC to the TV through my LR Fios Router using ethernet cables using allshare.
- If I disconnect the router from my PC and try to make that connection wirelessly, I can not see the TV anymore.
- Samsung technical support recommended changing the channel settings of my wireless router.
Pulling Video from a hard drive (Not NAS) to the TV.
When I first hooked a hard drive to the TV via ethernet from a router. it detected a few videos. They happened to be in the trash folder of that drive. I can not see any other videos added to that hard drive. If I connect the hard drive directly to the TV, I can see all videos and music on it. The drive is connected to the TV by a router that the TV recognizes. (Belkin).
Is there a way to get the TV to recognize videos on a hard drive hooked into the USB port of a router?
My network is a Samsung smart TV (also have sony smart Blu Ray player available. hooked to a FIOS router via ethernet. The Fios router is hooked to a belkin router via Internet.
Thanks,
