Hi, I just received this and I would really like to play netflix on my computer and have it trasfer to my tv screen but I cannot figure out how to?

It's very simple, you just plug the display port end into the display port input in your macbook and then connect the other end into one of your HDMI ports on your TV. If you have multiple HDMI ports on your TV, you may need to try a few of them. Mine didn't work on HDMI 2 or 3, but it did work on my HDMI 1 port. Good luck, hope this helped!

Plug the cords into your computer and your television. When they are both connected and turned on, the screen will turn blue for a couple seconds. Then click and hold on the gray top of the page you want to transfer (on your computer) and drag to the right. You should see it transfer to your screen.

How you would get it to work would depend on which type of computer you have. Also, make sure your Tv is on the "HDMI" setting.

It doesn't work for me either, but I am just using the splitter so I can connect my laptop to my TV and my computer monitor to watch movies on Netflix and it works great. I keep my laptop on a docking station. My 40" TV even works fine as a computer monitor when I want a big screen, so the splitter works for my situation for what I want it to do.

I connected a Mac mini directly to the TV using the VGA cable. I logged into Netflix. I clicked on an instant play movie. I was asked to install the Silverlight plugin, which I did. And then voila! It worked perfectly. This should work just as well with any Intel-based computer. Now if I could only figure out how to connect the TV to the computer wirelessly.

I have not used it for that I would like to though,not sure how to do it,I really like my computer but need more room for the big clear screen great to watch Netflix on as I have an ancient tv.

Yes you can. I just setup mine last night, netflix is available in media center, you just need to sign in. Make sure you have silverlight installed from microsoft, or it won't work.

No. This is what I use to do the same thing. I hook my laptop to the TV to watch Netflix.

Install PlayOn from Media Mall technologies in your computer, Add the movie you want to watch in Netflix to the Queue, anf use any DLNA certified devices to watch it. I believe LN46A750 is one of them.

It's in the software of the machine, should be able, if you have good wifi, to navigate to the netflix app under video. I do not use that part because it was not user friendly and I bought a smart tv.

You have to put it in HDMI-for use as a computer monitor.Other HDMI inputs,won't work.Check your tv,owner manual,on input devices.Another thing is,is that you hook everything up,before you turn on your computer,otherwise it will show wrong format,on your tv screen.

I just bought this same model. Very nice. very easy. make sure the tvis connected to the internet. have your computer standing by and have netflix open and logged in. press the viera cast button on the remote and open netflix, it should promt and give you a code. on your computer, click "my account & help" (upper right). scroll down to "watching instantly on your tv or computer" find the link "actvate a netflix ready device" and open it. it will ask you to enter the code you were given by your tv. enter and setup will proceed automatically. enjoy.

Don't have that problem at all. I personally made the purchase for the express reason to stream Netflix. I have the Chromecast and cable box connected to the HDMI via a splitter, Laptop connected to the VGA, blue ray connected to the RCA and all is well. I use this device now more than my LCD Tv and I'm extremely satisfied. Not one problem with everyday use and heavy usage on the weekends. 1 month thus far.

I am buy this for my mother cause she loves Netflix and our Xbox went out she has an older tv with the red white and yellow cable and isn't very good with this kind of stuff when I hook it up through the red white and yellow cable will it be easy to find netflix or will I have to install it and pay extra we have a subscription to netflix already but I was wondering if theres extra costs involved?

Sure you can plug in your laptop to connect to internet and watch netflix. You can do that with pretty much all lcds nowadays. As long as you connect your laptop, you can watch whatever is from your laptop. I bought the LN46B640 (grey bezel) from best buy for $999 which is a s slight improvement from this model and it looks amazing. Instead of connecting your laptop to watch netflix, you should look into purchasing a blu-ray with netflix capabilities because they are cheap nowadays.

I would not advise you to get it. I am problems with it. Cannot get it to turn on. I don't no if you can connect it to the tv to watch Netflix.

if you have a account, just download the netflix free app and log in. Also if you have a HDMI input on your TV Google Chromecast is a good investment as you can stream to the tv and use the tab as your remote
