How to update your Samsung Smart TV - Tip #4

The Samsung Smart TV does so much more than just watching TV. Being connected to the Internet allows the TV to become a hub with apps, live info, and even listening to radio from stations around the world. Here are some of the cool hidden features !

I wish Samsung would enforce streaming services (like the YouTube app) to have a quality feature that can be manually set. At the moment the TV uses the maximum bandwidth possible - always. For us in SA, we don't always need FHD to chomp away at our data bundles...

How to update Samsung with old firmware. Select Update Now. TV will respond with No Updates Available at this Time. Pull hair out in frustration.

Justin -- my problem is not updating my TV firmware, in fact it frequently updates SmartHub several times a day, and takes a long time too (my broadband is quite fast). I read somewhere that to fix this issue you can change the DNS server to 4.4.4.4 or 8.8.8.8 and this seemed to work, but a few weeks on I am having the same trouble. Anyone know a fix that works PLEASE!!!?

How exactly did this SHOW me how to update my tv...? You did nothing but talk, while random windows popped up on the the tv BEHIND you. You didn't walk through any process(es). You didn't show how to navigate the menu. I thought it was kind of cool that while you were talking about nothing, the tv itself was magically scrolling though menu items that we aren't shown how to find. Lucky for me I already know how to update my tv. My hope is you'll take my advice and make your next video with a little more thought and walk though. You don't have to listen to me. It's just a suggestion. Kind of depends on what kind of response you want from people who view your videos.
