I have very interesting problem with my TP-Link Deco X50-DSL. I have installed my new modem at home. All devices can connect internet without any problem. Also samsung smart tv can also connect to the internet. But Netlfix application of Samsung smart TV is not opening. Ther is no problem on internet connection, because Youtube application on the same TV is working fine. I can watch youtube videos. But netflix and disney plus are not working. Netflix application running or iPad is also working fie. iPad is connected to the same deco wifi with the TV. But TV is not opening Netflix and disney plus.
When I use hotspot on my iphone and connect samsung tv to iphone's wifi, there is no problem on netflix. But when I connect wifi via Deco X50, netflix is not connecting. Also youtube works well with Deco X50 wifi connection.
when I connect via iphone hubspot, in netflix connection check screen I see wlan0 and p2p0 wifi is connected. But when I connect via deco, it seems as wlan0 is connected, p2p0 is not connected. Only difference is this. But dont understand what the p2p0 is, and how can I make it connected.
I have removed Deco X50-DSL and connect TP-Link TD-W9970 again, there was no problem in Netflix connection. Also, when I look into Netflix's connection settings screen, I've seen again P2P connection is connected. I think the differences between 2 different Tp link devices is something like that. May be, there is some configuration our support missing in Deco X50-DSL.
I recently bought a Samsung UHD TV Smart TV and am using Yamaha receiver with 5.1 surround.
I had to install the optical cable from TV to Yamaha receiver and then set your receiver to
Audio-1 so you can then hear Netflix ! Good Luck
I cannot get any sound through my receiver when using netflix app from my samsung un55f6300. I am using ARC HDMI input and I tried an optical cable to the receiver. Do I need to change any settings on the tv, app or stereo? If anyone can help let me know. My receiver is a denon X400
Great article Eric, I learned a lot, and it was very clear. Method 2 works for me, but I tried method 4 with the ARC capability (tv, receiver, and hdmi cable have the capability), I activated ARC on both the tv and the receiver through the set up menus, kept my receiver on the hdmi channel, and it does not work: I still get the sound from the directv, with the image of the tv app (Netflix, YouTube, etc.) I have no idea why this does not work ?
Also, for other components (cable box, media player and blu ray player), I have a conventional setup where the components are connected to the receiver via HDMI and one HDMI cable goes from the receiver to the video in of the TV. This works well and I want to keep it the same way while being able to do the items above (Netflix and Chromecase on surround sound).
Eric, Is there any problem in using both an HDMI and a digital optical cable to get sound? How does the TV know which cable to use as sound? it seems it is the only way to get sound from my smart TV Apps and my Satellite TV to work on my surround sound. Both are wanting to use the ARC input on the receiver but I only have one ARC input on my receiver. I have a Samsung 7150 smart TV.
My new Samsung Smart TV is connected via HDMI/ARC to my AV Pioneer receiver. The TV can turn ON/OFF the receiver, and the TV can steer the receivers volume.
Problem is, that after turning both products off via the TV remote control, the receiver is turned on by itself the next day!
How is that possible?
Very helpful article. My TV has the HDMI/Arc input which I have connected from TV to cable box. I have digital optical from receiver to cable box. What do I need to do to get sound out of my surround system for the Smart apps. Little confused here.
Thanks alot for the info its simple n straight forward helped me save the hassle of connecting optical cable unnessarily to my first home theatre system denon awr-2200 and tannoy tfx 5.1 + uhd48 samsung tv..
I bought new lg tv version 55uh850t in jan 17. And i have bose home theatre 520 soundtouch system. Now the problem is when i share any video to my tv the sound does not come from my home theatre but when i switch to internal speaker of tv then sound is coming from tv. I have already connected a hdmi cable from tv(arc) to home theatre. But when i am using optical cable then sound is coming through my home theatre. This is the problem with only mobile sharing video to tv. Not with other connection. All are working fine. Pls give me a solution.
Thank you! New Samsung smart TV and relatively new receiver that both had ARC! This solved our app audio issue (we had the tv hdmi in the wrong port) Samsung support was no help, so glad I found your article or tv may have been thrown out the window.
I have ARC input and outputs but can still not get surround sound while watching streaming channels. Receiver was returned and all there tests indicate it was fine, fully operational. Got high speed HMDI cable still no solution. The surround sound works for DVD and cable stations but not for streaming channels, someone say changing settings in the streaming channels. Need help.
This article is fantastic, I could connect my Yamaha RX-V477 to my TV Samsung Q60-R using HDMI ARC cable and ports, therefore my streaming TV services can feed my AV Receiver with Dolby surround sound!!! But it has a trick, you need to try many HDMI cables as possible, the first one was not working as ARC for me, and this is not specified in the cable (ARC compatible or not). I live in Brazil.
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.
My main computer, with a ton of storage, use a software SAN/NAS solution to host shares with my movies and contents. Hook up a raspberry pi to the television with a wireless usb device, install xbmc on the pi. Then I should technically be able to stream netflix and 1channel from the PI, along with obtaining movies and contents from my desktop with much more storage.
