If I don't have a smart TV this adapter won't work to use like youtube - it will only stream my videos and pics from my phone?

I had the same problem. Your best bet is to email Samsung with your exact TV info and let them tell you whether the two are compatible, or, if not, whether they have a suitable product.

This adapter only allows certain televisions to connect with WiFi. There are no Apps or programs installed. Thanks for your interest in Samsung products.--Mr. S

That's what I was hoping for, but no, not from what I've seen from trying to use it. The issue is that you have to connect to this dongle as a WiFi network of its own, which means you can only play stuff already downloaded onto your device i.e. music or video already on your iPhone, not streaming. I think the Roku stick (coming out this week) is better for what you want to do.

Check that you are hooked up correctly. The adapter only works with a power source. The best way to test it, is to hook up your power cord to the adapter, then hook up the HDMI cable to the adapter and your TV, then connect your phone to the adapter.

This cable works well with apps like netflix and other movie apps. Does not work well with youtube. I dont think its the cable having problems, but the apps.

If you mean by "smarthub" a part of the player that carries all the different ways to access Hulu, YouTube, Netflix, etc, then yes, it sure does! In fact, my Samsung 1080p smart TV has a problem with YouTube where it doesn't play right at all, but this BluRay player's YouTube runs perfectly! I love this "Smart" BluRay player and I believe you will too. Good luck!

Youtube is not available...If you have Google TV you will be able to watch Youtube.

You will need to check if your TV supports Wifi Adapters. If so then you will be able to use this adapter. But remember to check first with Sony. I suggest you go to Sony Web page and ask on the support section.

It'll be fine,because it just use one of the HDMI's IN on your Tv, and then you just connected it to your phone. You need to get the app for it at the app store, and you have to connect the device to your WiFi, after that you'll be pair it to the phone and go. The device needs to have power, I have use a old phone charger with mini USB, 4.5V and 500 ml amp. When you use the device, just select the right HDMI connection on your TV and stream any video via screen mirror .

I think you might be looking at the wrong kind of thing to attach a smartphone to. This is to send several Audio/Video components to the same TV A/V hook up. You could technically hook it up through the headphone jack on your phone with the right adapter, but it would seem to me to be a wasted effort. There would be no reason to listen to your phone through your television. As far as trying to get video off your phone onto your Tv, to my knowledge they don't have any kind of adapter that would do that.

Look for the USB port on the side of your TV and plug into it. This help you connect your TV to your WiFi network and get Internet-based programs such as YouTube.

I don't know. I just wish I can watch my instant videos on my Android phone. Do you know how to do this?

From my understanding, this tablet does not support the Slimport system so this adapter would not work. I think that this tablet does not offer any video output from a wired port. Quote from Engadget review: " There's also no hardware-based video out, whether through HDMI (as on the Sero 7 Pro), MHL or SlimPort. ASUS does offer Miracast wireless display support as a consolation prize, however, so those with suitably modern TVs can skip the wires altogether."

No, though you can pair "YouTube" from phone, tablet, to tv quite easily thru wifi. Works wonderfully with streaming devices.

Isn't a dongle for bluetooth? Unless you're smart TV is bluetooth, it won't work.

Heres the problem. The unit has limited space which prevents you from viewing a lot of videos. You have to frequently clean the cache. I don't like the Google play verison of Youtube so I use Chrome to watch youtube content. I also watch MLBTV with Chrome. It works but Vizio and Google need to tweak the device's software.

You have to check the features off the Smart TV.Normally usb at TV levels are for pictures(cameras etc.) and mp3 music.streaming a High Resolution movie requires Caching and video related hardware.if Smart TV says it does mp4 then your movies have to be in that format.This USB is backward compatible.What you as is more off feature on the TV than this unit.If TV says it does avi,mp4 no problem.i have a cheap core2 duo optiplex and use Big Tv Screen as monitor,and watch anything i want.hope this helps
