Review of Samsung Internet@TV Part 1 of 3

[panarkas]

Anybody knows if I can access Samsung InternetTV with any other wifi adapter besides WIS09ABGN?

[blueistotallyawesome]

HA no friend requests XD

[bealerDSB]

BOTTOM LINE_ these apps are c r a p p y :. FB pics in thumbnail ROFL. Connect your MacMini - Then it's a cool tv :p

[Yeclanoide]

using the wifi dongle, can you access and watch movies shared via wifi form your pc?

[212xxxx]

after connecting to internet how to browser the internet

[pinoarnold]

this tv not have wi fi

[conicEllipse]

Might have been a good video if it was >240 resolution and not blurry on the close-ups. Sorry.

[corinearriola01]

lol mine r $2 cause in cheap lmao!!!!! great honesty im cheap too! :-D

[dailymiriam]

does internet@tv need a blueray player? if it does, how stupid. blowing $200.

[TacticalTechAdm]

@dailymiriam Negative, it does not. I do not have a blue ray player at all, and with technologies like DLNA which allow you to stream your own movies from a server direct to a TV, and Netflixm, I'd imagine having movies on any kind of disc 10 years from now will be like having them on VHS today. So that's why I wouldn't invest in a disc player.

Those apps you need to pay for, do you first need to fill in your creditcard number or can you just acces the apps and pay afterwards?

[XxRezinho360xX]

When i go to youtube and try watching videos that are 1080p it plays them in a lower resolution and i dont know where to select the higher resolution. Please help !!!

[SexyMusicvidschannel]

pandora is a planet :P

[giantglory81]

Good review! Can you browse regular web pages, or is it just thru apps?

[silveryashkul]

I logged into youtube after about 2 years or so to say thanks to you. I am considering to buy an internet tv but your review helped me to decide that I don't need to put money into that yet.

No web browser means no internet ...however samsung try to convince us.

[goatalope]

I have a samsung led 4600 internet tv with the samsung wireless adapter. However I don't have a computer or internet in the house. Do I need to buy a wireless router and will that get me internet access for tv? Thanks

[22ZCONDON22]

How do I sign in on my youtube account on the youtube app???

[silenteyesspy]

I personally think that this is all hype..I have a 50" flat screen and have my Imac hooked up through HDMI to it and I have a laptop and an Iphone...nothing new here..I'll be saving my money for when the 3d TVs come out that don't require glasses

[ScreamingDeaf]

@bkljaydee And can you tell me where is the qwerty keyboard on the Samsung remote? I can't find it and since you're the best, you can probably tell me where it is. Thanks In advance.

[ScreamingDeaf]

@bkljaydee , I'm trying... I'm a psychiatric nurse and I'm used to histrionic and narcissistic personnalities like yours. Other frustrations you want to share with us? Feel free to let your heart speak.

[bkljaydee]

seems a big waste of money. I have my convenient fast laptop on my coffee table. I also have a new samsung 46lcd with the option of internet if I buy an adapter. I don't see the point. My netflix I get through my xbox etc...the only thing i think it can do for me is play pandora through my sound system connected to the tv instead of my laptop speakers ..thats it. what a waste of money. thanks for posting this video and saving me 85 dollars.!!!!!!all the other apps are useless if u own a pc!!!

[ScreamingDeaf]

Good review, thanks! And don't forget that if you have an iPhone, you can use it as a remote with wich you can use it as the regular remote, touch keyboard and controller for your games. Pretty cool and this app is free!

[bkljaydee]

@ScreamingDeaf .big deal....is the gay iphone better than your controller that you use for your games or better than your remote for the tv? No.....just because you can do it.....doesn't make it worthwhile. All these iphone and ipad apps are fucking ridiculous and useless. Why use half the apps? Just cuz you can? What a waste of time. Hey look...this phone changes the channel!!Wow......!!!!!!so does the fucking remote. Do something productive with your life instead of downloading useless apps!

[kaul128]

hello,

on which key you press to display widget yahoo view mode dock

[annasky]

if i have internet connected directly to my xbox....would this internet feature on samsung still be worth it?

[TacticalTechAdm]

@annasky Depends on the Xbox I suppose. If it's a Media Extender or XBMC, probably be best just to stick with the box.

[mrbrightbill]

I enjoyed your review. I just bought the stick. It is giving me fits though. I am connected to my network. But how to you get to the apps page. Does it automatically go, do I need a firmware update. Or do I need to do one of those network tests.  Did you have issure when you installed your stick?

[TacticalTechAdm]

@mrbrightbill I didn't have any issues with the wireless stick. Most problems i have are on the router side (mainly because i have too much other-than-TV network demand on a cheap linksys), but a network test is always suggested. Sometimes it takes up to 2 minutes for the network features to become completely available to the TV. It does not pop up automatically with the aps page, you'll have to open the internet@tv menu to see that.

[UnitedStateTerrorist]

Imagine if Apple made an HDTV. You'd get an iSight in it, internet, appstore (same one on yr phone/ipod), and best of yet yr remote is touchscreen and you can even use yr iPhone/Pod or Pad to control it as well. It'd be O-LED, Full 3D HD, some crazy inovative speakers built-in with an optional external subwoofer that looks as amazing as the TV. now imagine the housing.. jesus.. It'd be a beautiful TV, an artwork. Then, the most mind blowing unbelievably astonishing thing ever... THE PRICE!!! LOL

[TacticalTechAdm]

@UnitedStateTerrorist I think they already have (or had) apple TV. Little bit different though; it hooks up like a cable box rather than a whole TV. Google also has something like this in GoogleTV which also has aps built specifically for it. I really want to try that out.

[MaloEdu]

@UnitedStateTerrorist But it will be sold like a hot cake no matter how much it price LOL hahahaha

[jat12398]

This is kinda stupid. If he wanted the thing for youtube, just by a laptop and watch your stupid videos and other crap that ppl with no life like you would watch.

[scrappmutt2]

@jat12398 Ok, lets put it this way. Long day at work, don't want to sit at the desk in front of a computer. You get tired of the "Dancing with the Stars" marathon and want to watch new and original videos on youtube without leaving the comfort of your couch. Open Youtube app with the remote control. With a computer hooked up to the TV, you have Windows overhead. Built into TV, you don't. You sound like the old man complaining about washing machines and telling me just to get a washboard instead.

[w8t2009]

At the youtube app. When your searching for sometimes and play it. After the video will it countinue to play the next video automaticly? or does it stop at menu? This is very important for me to know. Thank you

[TacticalTechAdm]

@w8t2009 It doesn't autoplay the next item that it suggests to play, so no, but, let's say you search for Rolling Stones. It will give you a long list of Rolling Stones videos. You can choose or check mark all of the videos and hit 'play all', and then it will continue on to the next video. Only problem is it doesn't play continuously in full screen, or at least i haven't found a way to force it to do that. I believe you can also play play lists, but i need to double check on that

[123xylem]

@TacticalTechAdm can u use this wirelessly? I dont know how to hook my samsung up to the net and my lan wire wouldnt fit in

[joelouiswright]

so what button on the remote are you hitting because nothing seems to come up. thanks

[TacticalTechAdm]

@joelouiswright 'Internet @ Tv'. Is the TV getting an IP address? usually the menu won't come up until it has an IP.

[joelouiswright]

can you lan port insted of the wireless???

[TacticalTechAdm]

@joelouiswright Yes, it has a 8P8C F adapter for it's internal NIC included. I am not sure if it is a 100mbps or 1gps. Guess I need to conduct some research on that.

[hvah]

Rather have a pc hooked up to my "old" tv..

Much more freedom..

[TacticalTechAdm]

@hvah I made this vid prior to knowing about it, but you might want to check out GoogleTV. For around $400 bucks they have a blueray player that can be hooked to an old TV that has better internet browsing capability and an ap market somewhat like the droid market. It looks promising, however i am not sure if it has the ability to DVR on its own or play video over the network from a server, so if not, might be best to stick with Windows MC or XBMC.

[kurtestinoso]

is there any apps for checking your yahoo email? please let me know.. thanks.. =)

how about for browsing online or some kind?

[TacticalTechAdm]

@kurtestinoso I just went through the Yahoo gadgets and InternetTV aps to see if there were any new programs, but unfortunately, there is still not an application for browsing web pages or checking email of any sorts (unless you include face book perhaps). They are constantly coming out with updates and new aps though, and if I find an ap that does any of this, I'll let you know
