Any chance of getting Media Server working with Samsung Smart TV?

I can see everything, but when selected all I get is "not supported format"

Thanks

install the plex client on the smart tv, and use plex server on the nas. works perfectly :)

That's what I'm doing now.. works great...for video.. but the Samsung Plex app doesn't support music files. Also like to do a quick preview before running it through Plex. I know Plex has DNLA, but I'll have to tell plex where my music is and let it figure that mess out.

Well.. I don't use the tv speakers.. But, it is nice to just have you music collection on the nas and use the tv to browse through it.

Hi Mickes,
We just purchased a Samsung TV (UA40E5500M), and working on this issue now.
I will keep you posted on final result.
Cheers,

Dear Mickes,

The V1.0.0.r964 will be released later today, you can update it via App central.
Please give it a try and feel free to let me know how it goes, ok?
Many thanks,

Unfortunately the update doesn't work for me! I have a UE46D8080.

Nope.. same thing..
I can see all the files, the TV even finds and reads my old playlists (.m3u)... But all files show up as unsupported format when trying to play. Tried avi, mkv, and mp3.

I updated,tried disabling and restarting, then removed and re-installed.
