Connecting Samsung TV to PC (directly)
- Turn on your TV and PC
- Connect them with a network cable (crossover crimp)
- Write down the addresses for your computer and TV. In the properties of the local connection to PC enter address: 192.168.1.1 , and on TV: 192.168.1.2 . Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 for both devices.

- Now all you have to do is press the “Media player” button on the remote control and select a video file from your PC.
Using Home Media Server
Finding a server on the device used to play content
The search must be performed in accordance with the user manual of the media device (for example, the instructions for your TV). If the server is not found and all connections are made correctly, then in the program settings (in the section Server) check that the list of allowed client devices is empty or the IP address of the device is in the list of allowed ones. When using a network protection program (firewall, antivirus), check its rules for the module hms.exe(if the server runs as a Windows service, then for the module hmssvc.exe), if possible, put the firewall program into learning mode, restart the Home Media Server (UPnP) program. And if you use other media servers, disable them while setting up the Home Media Server program.
The server does not open on the device for playback
If the server is found, but there is no way to open it in the media device, then go to the settings of the “Home Media Server (UPnP)” program in the section Device: mode “DLNA 1.0?”, “DLNA 1.5?”, “Authorization Service”, “Russian names of main folders” (using these settings will help solve problems with opening the server), and in the section Server set a permanent server port (from 1024 to 65535).
Navigating through the media resource database on a media device
If the device supports Russian language, then in the program settings (section Device) turn on the mode “Russian names of main folders”, this affects the names of the main folders of the media content database. If the Russian language is not supported by the media device, then select the “Translit” mode for encoding Russian names; the “Russian names of the main folders” mode is turned on/off at the user’s request (if disabled, then the names of the main folders of media resources will be in English).
Slow navigation through the media content database may be due to the operating characteristics of the media device, the inclusion of the “Exclude empty folders when transferring information to UPnP devices” mode, the presence of slow removable media in the system, frequent changes in media resource directories and the enabled “Automatic directory scanning” mode when they change while the server is running." The “Exclude empty folders when transferring information to UPnP devices” mode can be turned off, the “Removable media” folder can be deleted in all sections of media resources (Movies, Music, Photos).
Navigation through directories of media resources in the structure of their storage on disk can be done through the folder “Watch Folders” (Russian language is turned off), “Catalogues of media resources” (Russian language is turned on). If some media content is not visible on the device, but is shared in the program, then this may be due to the mime type transmitted by the server for this media resource. The Mime type can be changed in the program settings - Settings button - "Media resources" section - "File types" - selecting a file extension - Change button.
AllShare Samsung is a multimedia server on your network. If you need to play files from one computer on all devices on the network, then this software is perfect for you.
Even though the application is no longer officially supported, you can still download AllShare Samsung for free for Windows 7, 8 and 10 from the link below right after the description.
The principle of data transfer is carried out using the DLNA protocol. But your devices can be connected either via Wi-Fi or via a local network. A server program is installed on your personal computer from which multimedia data will be played.
AllShare Play is just a player that is built into the main program.
In turn, the client program is installed on the client equipment on which the image or music will be displayed. On Samsung Smart TVs, the program is preinstalled by the manufacturer. Installing and configuring the server is carried out in several steps.
When you first launch the product, it will offer you visual assistance in setting up. But at this stage there are some nuances. On the right side of the interface there is a list of devices on which data is stored. That is, not only your PC, but also other network devices can act as a data source. Before adding a folder for playing files in it, go to tools->settings and check the box next to allow your device to connect automatically. To add a folder, click + and select the folder.
AllShare Samsung can be downloaded for Windows 10, 8 and 7 for free from the official website in Russian using the links below immediately after the characteristics of the utility.
Then select a file (or several) and in the lower left corner click “play on” and select a device for playback. The program will go to the playback interface, where you can easily manage the file being played. If these are photos, you can turn on a slide show; if this is a video, you can pause or rewind to the desired moment at any moment, and also switch to the next file in the playlist.
Most likely, the Samsung AllShare function is not as popular and technically advanced as, for example, AirPlay from Apple, but it is widely used for quickly sharing multimedia content via wireless communication between devices that stand out from the crowd by the presence of the South Korean manufacturer’s corporate logo.
What is this function?
Thanks to this function, users can easily view video files and photos on a large TV screen, as well as play their favorite music that they downloaded to their smartphone a few minutes ago. Just a couple of button presses and your fantasy becomes reality.
Thanks to this program, the user can easily set up the exchange of data (files) between devices such as a personal computer, smartphone, tablet and TV. It is worth noting that the easiest way is to exchange files between Smart TV receivers and iconic Galaxy smartphones. The ease of setup is that these devices already have the All Share module installed. In other words, you do not need to separately purchase hardware or install special software.
If you are one of the lucky owners of these devices, but the entire setup of the wireless communication channel will not take much of your time.
Let's look at the instructions for setting up file sharing step by step.
We configure your smartphone.
Let's look at one of the most popular Samsung models.
Setting up on a Galaxy S3 smartphone
The first thing you need to check is whether your smartphone and TV are connected to a common Wi-Fi network. And of course synchronization. Otherwise, you simply will not be able to establish a connection between them and, as a result, broadcast content.
- We go to the main menu of the smartphone.
- We perform a sequential transition to the “Settings” and “Advanced settings” tabs.
- Next, go to “Available devices”.
- And lastly, you need to activate the “Data exchange” item.
We turn on the AllShare application, which is in the general list of preinstalled programs. If this function is activated for the first time, you will be asked to go through a simple registration procedure, in other words, to create a personal account. If you have previously used this application, then in order to log in to the system, you simply need to enter your login, that is, your email address and, accordingly, your personal password, in the special fields.
Setting up a smart TV
We turn on the device using the appropriate button and activate a special service called Smart Hub, which allows you to manage various types of multimedia applications.
Find and activate an application called AllShare Play. In order to log in to the system, you need to press the red button located on the remote control and marked with the letter A. In the window that appears, we enter all the data that is necessary for successfully logging into your account.
Setting up the exchange of multimedia content between two devices.
Further actions depend on which device we choose as the base one.
We use Samsung SmartTV as a base device.
In this case, we will put the smartphone aside for now, and we will view and listen to all the media material that is stored in its memory using the interface of the “smart” TV. The technology used in the DLNA home network allows you to view and manage data from the smartphone’s memory using the TV remote control.
The user only needs to select one of the proposed categories (photos, videos or music), and then confirm (select) their smartphone in the list of available devices. If everything is done correctly, multimedia files of this category will appear on the TV display.
If you have a high-quality wireless connection, then broadcasting content to the receiving device, that is, a TV, will be stable and fast. To view photos, the user can use the sequential scrolling function or the preset TV functions (slide show, rotation and additional effects).
While playing music tracks, the cover of the corresponding album appears on the screen; the program itself can play the entire playlist or only selected music. The entire library is managed using the Tools button.
Basic device – smartphone
This method is most often used to view multimedia files on a large screen. To achieve a stable data transmission channel, you must first log into your account on two devices and establish a good Wi-Fi connection between them.
In order to send content to your SMART TV, you must activate a specific file on your smartphone. A special symbol should appear in the upper right corner - a monitor icon, which should signal that the file you selected can be transferred to an external device - the receiver. After clicking on the icon, the file broadcast starts automatically.
While watching content, your smartphone can be used as a remote control. It's worth noting that if you haven't yet become the proud owner of a Samsung SmartTV, you can use all the wireless data transfer features of the Galaxy on a simple LCD TV. To make this possible, you need to purchase a special AllShare Cas wireless adapter and simply connect it to your TV. After successfully setting up everything between the two devices, you will be able to view all the content on the big screen.

Modern phones are on par in terms of power with not the newest computers. However, due to the small display, it can be difficult to unlock its full potential. In this case, the function of connecting the phone to the TV comes to our aid. On it you can relay the picture from your phone while watching your favorite movies, photos, or even just explore the World Wide Web or go through applications. In this case, you need to know how to properly connect your phone to the TV, which is what we’ll talk about today.
HDMI connector is our best friend
The simplest, but at the same time effective way to connect is via an HDMI cable. To do this, as you might have guessed, you don’t need much, not less, a corresponding connector on your smartphone and TV, as well as an HDMI cable. Often, the phones themselves have a mini-HDMI or micro-HDMI connector, which is done solely to save free space, and is not reflected in the data transfer speed in any way. The process of synchronizing your phone and TV is incredibly simple, and there are a lot of benefits from it:
- Turn off both devices, connect them with an HDMI cable, and then turn them on again
- Using the TV menu device, select the signal display source - HDMI (the names may vary slightly depending on the brand of the TV manufacturer)
- We enjoy the result!
In this case, the TV will display both video and audio. Having a good audio system, you can fully enjoy the surround sound of your favorite music from your phone. And browsing the Internet reaches a whole new level, because, you see, no 4, 5 or even 6 inches of phone screen can compare with the diagonal of a home TV.
Good old USB
Everyone is familiar with the USB connector... And we couldn’t do without it. However, it is worth noting that if you use the USB connection method, your phone will perform the banal function of a flash drive. However, even in this case, watching movies on a TV is much more convenient than on a phone display. The process of connecting your phone to your TV via USB is no different from HDMI. We connect one end of a special cable to the phone and the other to the TV. It is also recommended to turn off both devices first. In this case, automatic setup will occur, and you will not have to personally delve into the TV menu interface.
Use of wireless technologies
The era of wires is fading into centuries, and they are being replaced by wireless technologies, which also affected the process of connecting a phone to a TV. Home tech giants, notably LG and Samsung, have released software that allows their mobile products to sync with TVs, as long as they both have built-in Wi-Fi, of course. To do this, you just need to connect both devices to your home network and launch the necessary program. Smart Share and AllShare for LG and Samsung respectively. Those who are unlucky enough to become one of the owners of products of these brands should not immediately despair. If both your devices support
