I have a smart TV and Rexton hearing aids. I just purchased a Rexton Smart Transmitter 2.4. I am able to successfully hear normal TV programs streamed to my hearing aids. But I do not know how to receive Netflix through my hearing aids.
RCA cables are connected to the Audio Out on the TV and I hear TV perfectly streamed to my hearing aids. I have not yet tried to connect cable. Should I use that cable in addition to the RCA cables? If so, where do I plug TOS in on the transmitter and where on the TV? Thank you.
I have a TV streamer connected by rca cables from the audio out of the TV. I watch regular TV with a set top box connected to one HDMI port. On another HDMI port I have an Apple TV, and watch Netflix using the Netflix app on the Apple TV. I get audio from both sources to the streamer just fine.
Re audio-settings, not sure where to look for network player in settings. I did notice that network connection = wireless. Bright output audio = auto
Simultaneous optical output =on
Sound output = HDMI earc mode
enter streaming mode: start Netflix and play something and while the video is playing set the audio output format for streaming to PCM.
While streming press the HOME button on the remote control and then Sound > Expert Settings > Digital Audio Output Format, and change Dolby Digital to PCM.
BTW: found a lengthy tread about an issue with Samsung TV and Netflix Solved: Netflix sound not working on UE50NU7400 with digital output - Samsung Community
This were 2 years ago and have been solved by Samsung via firmware update for TV
I have a new 4GEE home router 3, everything has connected except my 2 teles cannot get netflix to work on them. catch up (bbc i player etc ) and disney plus are fine but netflix wont get past either 0%, 25% or sometimes 76% then I just get a message saying cannot use come back later. customer services say cannot help only thing is work ongoing on local mast that is not finished until dec!!! very frustrated. netflix worked perfectly on previous broadband supplier even though my speed with BT was only 5mg - tests show get 11 to 17 now sometimes 7 or 9 but only need 1mg for netflix - can anyone help? many thanks
yes it streams on my old tablet. I have disconnected the tele and and reconnected, the Lan is plugged in between the tv and the router and it still goes up to 25% and stops dead. I have followed all the netflix tips to get it to work and it just won't. Disney + works on this tv - its a samsung smart tv and Netflix worked perfectly on the old broadband. I just dont know what else to try.
did talk to the tech people but basically cannot help - just mentioned work on a mast nearby that is not complete until Dec. everything they did showed no problems which is why I dont know what to do next!
No I don't think I have - have signed out and signed back in, not sure I know how to delete it from the tele and reinstall - am not brilliant at all the tech although I am learning as this has been going on and on
EE tech gurus have escalated (after 3 hrs on the laptop this morning) a while ago it seems this was a known problem with EE privacy settings and Netflix - this was a year ago on this forum - person had exactly the same issue as me. couldn't solve it and eventually left EE.
Check the APN Settings within the Admin Area of your 4G Router, is the APN Profile set to IPV4/6, if set try setting this to IPV4 Only and while your there check and change the Authentication to PAP. You may have to create another EE Profile in order to Change this, then set and Save the New Profile as Default then Reboot the Router.
As streaming media sources have become increasingly popular, so too have devices to bring Netflix and more to our television screens. Now our TVs, Blu-ray players, and game consoles can all stream online video. With so many options, is it worth buying a Roku or other dedicated streaming player?
If your streaming media needs are basic, Smart TVs will let you watch Netflix, Hulu, and other mainstream services just fine. But are they as good as a dedicated streaming device? The short answer is sometimes, but the full explanation is a bit more complicated. Read on to see what streaming media players and Smart TVs offer in terms of content, interface, and other features, so you can pick the best option for you.
While a Smart TV gets you the basics, a dedicated streaming media player will let you watch almost anything. Roku is definitely the king of content, with 3,500-plus streaming channels. Admittedly, that includes a lot of channels you probably don't care about, but the point is that Roku covers everything you're likely to want. For anyone interested in iTunes content, a streaming player is the only way to go: Apple TV is the sole device that supports iTunes. And while not every streaming device is the same, most offer more options than Smart TVs.
Smart TVs can't compete with that variety. Though you can expect Netflix and YouTube as a matter of course, beyond that it's a mixed bag. For example, Vizio Smart TVs won't stream Amazon (though neither will Apple TV) and neither Panasonic nor Vizio stream HBO. LG, Samsung, and Sony Smart TVs offer the most variety, but none of the traditional TV-makers compete with Roku on channel selection.
Some exceptions do exist: Roku TVs and Sony Smart TVs are both essentially TVs with third-party streaming media players baked in. Roku TVs are made by a variety of manufacturers and integrate Roku's interface and capabilities. Sony integrates Android TV, which, while not our top choice in streaming media systems, is a step up from the average Smart TV. On top of that, LG offers a solid Smart TV interface that allows for screen sharing (from select devices) with its Magic Mobile Connection feature.
So, which device wins for content? Definitely Roku (or Roku TV), but other stand-alone streaming players are also solid options, depending on what you want to watch. For a Smart TV, LG, Samsung, and Sony all offer respectable streaming options... but not quite the best.
The usefulness of universal search goes back, again, to the number of channels available. The more channels a device can search, the better universal search is at finding what you want. This again gives Roku an edge.
While Smart TVs focus on what you can watch, Apple TV, Fire TV, and Android TV let you access select games and apps for iOS (Apple TV) or Android (Fire TV and Android TV). Roku has some games, as do certain Smart TVs. But other than the offerings from Sony, which uses Android TV, they're all fairly lackluster.

I am playing .mkv movies with 1080 resolution and about 12gb size without problems and i think, that is a good alternative because, the Raspberry Pi has lower power consumption than a PC and with a wireless card, you can stream contents to your TV.
Raspberry need USB storage or SD card.
Controll Raspberry via smartphone app (Android / iPhone app) using WLAN (smartphone) and (W)LAN with your Raspberry Pi. Some tvs can send HDMI CEC commands and you just use your normal tv remote. (horrible for setup but nice afterwards)
They also have mobile apps that can can remote control XBMC as well. I have my setup with my old gaming rig hooked up to my TV via hdmi with XBMC installed, and then I control it with the xbmc remote with a xbmc android app from my phone only need the TV remote to turn on the TV.
