Samsung Smart Tv Dlna Client App
by admin
Hi all, my first post here and hope someone has some advice.
I have a Samsung 49' K6500 Curved Smart TV (model UA49K6500AK) that I want to view content on from my media server (HDD connected to Huawei B618 router). I see the share on the tv's sources, but when I go in to view the content in the folders it says 'No content found'.
It works perfectly on my Samsung 3d blueray system (model HT-D5500) which is about 3 or more years older, as well as my xbox 360. It is just a bit irritating to always go through them if the TV is supposed to work by itself. The home theater system is also too loud when the kids are sleeping.
Contacting Samsung support is useless - they told me to contact my ISP :crylaugh:
Anyone also had this issue and solved it?

To stream content from your smartphone, you need to have a DLNA app installed on it. One of the most popular DLNA apps is BubbleUPnP, which can be downloaded from the Google Play Store for free. Some smartphones also come with pre-loaded DLNA apps.


- Hi, I just bought the new Samsung ue48js9000 uhd and cannot play SRT subtitles via DLNA / Network (tried cable and Wifi) with WD my book live 4TB. Embebed subtitles in MKV play ok. SRT subtitles play ok if connected via USB drive to OCB. With other TV’s at home SRT subtitles play fine via DLNA / Network (Samsung F7000 and D6500). FW Versions are (latest I can find by 30.JUL.2015): Samsung.
- DLNA Media Streaming and Mirroring allows you to Stream your local Media content such as HD Videos, Audio files and Images on to DLNA enabled Smart TVs. This App also gives option to user share or mirror their mobile screen on to Miracast enabled wireless display or smart TV or to Miracast dongles.
