I'm trying to long-distance-coach a tech-challenged friend on using his
Samsung SmartTV's web browser to view content his Cable TV service
doesn't carry. (This is not trying to get around stuff without
paying--the content, out of area sports, FWIW, is freely available to
watch on his PC.)
When he tries to access the content with the Samsung-embedded browser,
he gets an immediate prompt to upgrade Flash. Following the offered
links allows access to what is labeled as "Linux" rpm and/or tgz
versions, neither of which will install on the TV. So, the content won't
load.
While I've suggest he do a general upgrade of the TV firmware, in hopes
there's a usable Flash upgrade included, I'm thinking of pointing him in
a different direction--say, a ChromeCast.
Any other suggestions? Thanks.
