I've never heard of Rocketfish cable but google search shows that it's just an HDMI cable. Did you switch (your TV remote) to HDMI input channel that corresponds to the correct HDMI input on the TV? Did you try plugging the cable into different HDMI input on the TV? Before it fails, did you change anything such as upgrading iOS, upgrading Netflix app or changing cable etc?
You can also use AirPlay to send the video to an Apple TV through your wireless network, although the Apple TV also has the Netflix app installed. Even then the Apple TV is a good addition to your home theatre for streaming other content off the iPad, iPhones, computer or video rentals for iTunes.
I've got an HDMI cable which normally transmits what I'm seeing on my iPad screen to my TV except when I try and play a Netflix movie I get a message (on the IPad) saying "Cannot Play Video - The connected display is not supported."
Thanks for quick reply. Is it possible my TV is just too old (2011) for this new technology (for e.g. it's not HDCP compliant - whatever that means)? If so, is using a Chromecast likely to produce any different result do you think?
I don't know what TV you're using. I got my LCD TV in 2009, older than yours but it works fine. As long as you have an HDMI input, you can use Chromecast device. Best part of it is the cost. I got mine for about twenty bucks.
II've been streaming Netflix through my iPad for awhile successfully. I have the cable. However now somethings not connecting...get message on tv "no signal". Could this be my settings on my tv remote? I it on component to Netflix. Sorry, not very technical. Any suggestions appreciated.
A friend put a Rocketfish cable on back of my Samsung tv and I plug that into my ipad2. I change the settings on my tv remote and its always worked well. Now I get a signal on tv "no signal". I can watch netflix on my ipad but it won't stream through to my tv.
With everything. plugged in, have you tried doing a hard reset of your iPad by holding down the. Home and sleep buttons simultaneously until the screen turns black and the Apple Logo appears and then let go of the buttons?

yes, I changed tv remote settings to component as the cable has several wires. Always worked before. Now just get "no signal"....it's like there's no connection. Netflix works just fine on my iPad but it doesn't stream to tv.
The adapters for iPads can be unreliable and aren't terribly rugged. I would highly recommend purchasing a Chromecast or better still an AppleTV. If you're getting an HDCP error, that would likely be a bad or old HDMI cable. I would first suggest a new HDMI cable. If the issue still persists it could be your TV.
Hi everyone,
We actually can using orion browser by kagi on ipad. I posted it here at -version-is-finally-here-but-i-cant-log-in-please-help/11106?u=irene_alred. But i cant log in so i cant really use it. Lmk if youre able to log in please. Thanks
Irene, Thanks for your sharing. I just downloaded orion browser. But it seems that I am not able to watch Netflix on this browser. Netflix keeps forcing me to use their app. How could you watch the series on orion browser? Thank you!
ive noticed i can use language reactor on ipad for youtube anyway, by going to this language reactor site here on the ipad then going to turtle tube. IT has a lot of selection of videos in your target language with the two sets of subtitles.
Hi I am trying to access Netflix on my ipad but it dosen't recognise my email directly on the app but I can't seem to find a link through the Sky Go either? Are you able to watch and download Netflix through Sky?
The Netflix app on Windows/OXS/android/iOS etc. is supposed to permit a login using the same credentials as the app on Sky Q/Glass/Stream, and will give the access permitted by the relevant add-ons to the Sky subscription.
Having same issue. Have a Netflix offer through my Sky. However when I try to log on to Netflix through my iPad, it's wanting a payment method to re subscribe?
I have tried both the app and through the browser with no success. Is this a new thing? I used to watch through my iPad when I had Netflix through my Sky previously, before they changed the number of users allowed. Help!
I have the Basic Netflix account through my Volt package. Initially this was working as expected, I could watch Netflix in 2 devices simultaneously, until recently it stopped working. I can watch Netflix on 2 of my Virgin boxes but when I try to watch on an iPad, 3rd Netflix box, phone etc, I get a message that my payment details need to be updated.
Hi Dave I have three Virgin boxes l, NF works on 2 of them and no other devices, last week I received a notification last week from NF that my account is now suspended due to non payment, gone from bad to worse.
Am I able to watch all Roku channels on my iPad? Am I restricted to only the one channel that is currently on the TV? I have saved "Weird: The Al Yankovic Story" on my iPad. Can I watch that on my iPad independently of the TV?
Thanks all for your assistance. I think I get it now. You cannot use the channel guide to mirror streaming shows on your TV directly to your iPad, but there is a limited amount of Roku content that is available on your iPad using the app.
The key is finding on your iPad what is viewable and what is viewable for free on that device. Sometimes I can view shows on my iPad that are currently streaming, but I cannot access them if I search that particular title in the app. I don't see why that is.
@PopeyeTheSailor, if you're speaking of The Roku Channel which is an app on Roku devices, you can use the mobile app or the website to watch the free content that's available there. If you want to use any other app that's available on a Roku device on your iPad, you'll need to find an equivalent iOS app. The mobile app is not a substitute for an actual Roku device.
You can watch Roku Channel content on your iPad via the Roku app, but no other Roku device is involved. That is, your Ultra would not be a part of that mix. You can use the Roku app on your iPad regardless of whether or not there are any other Roku devices. But the viewing would be limited to Roku Channel content, which is not the entire Roku app library.
Many apps and services do make apps for both Roku and iPad. Netflix, for example, has a Roku app and an iPad app. If you subscribe to Netflix directly, you could use the credentials to watch on either device. But again, the devices are not connected in any way, wired or wireless.
I like the use of the word "no", but I would like a little clarification. When you say "You can watch Roku Channel content on your iPad via the Roku app", are you saying only that the channel guide is viewable but not the shows themselves? Are any Roku shows viewable on the iPad? If the answer is "no" the issue is settled and I am done.
To watch Roku Channel content on your iPad, you can download and install the Roku mobile app from the App Store. Once you have downloaded the app, you can sign in with your Roku account and browse the Roku Channel content available.
Watch hundreds of hit movies, TV shows, and more when you are on the go, directly from The Roku Channel tab. You can also use the app as a remote control for your Roku device and access other features such as voice search and private listening.

If it's something you're watching within Roku Channel, it should be the same content available on each platform (Roku or iPad). If you watch it on your Roku, but not within Roku Channel, then it may or may not be available. That's up to the developer.

If you use Airplay or Screen Mirroring
Airplay and Screen Mirroring are no longer supported by Netflix.
To use your iPhone or iPad to watch Netflix on a TV, use a supported connection.
Also it has to be an 'ad free; type of account:
True, but in this case legal won that battle. Plus it's easier. We use Swank for licensing the physical media playback anyways so we just tacked on the streaming service and we have our butts covered.
@ger Sorry if I am missing something here but you would assign license / push out the managed app via MDM / Jamf to the apple tv device, it is the same as the ipadOS app.
Instead of airplay you are now playing the content directly via the Netflix app installed on the Apple TV.
As unhelpful as it sounds, anyone that has a netflix account and wants to display content, will need to log into the Apple TV app then navigate the interface to play.
Airplay (I imagine) has less ways of ramming adverts down your throat so the main streaming apps cut off support as opposed streaming content directly in app.
