I have had this blu ray player (BD P1600) for over 2 years and today I finally bought the wireless network adapter and upgraded the firmware, but all I got out of it was youtube. I was wondering how I can get netflix onto the blu ray player?
Discussion is locked
I wonder about what country too.
http://www.samsung.com/us/function/search/espsearchResult.do?input_keyword=bd-p1600&keywords=bd-p1600 does have a HOW-TO on activating the Netflix but this may be country limited.
Be sure to ask Netflix Canada if they plan to add this player.
Hi, i'm from Brazil and i have a BD-P1600. I've updated the firmware and for my surprise it comes just with youtube app. Why my blue ray doesn't have netflix app? It's different model from USA? thanks
Netflix decides to write a version for these. Not Samsung. Be sure to ask both companies for this.
I too bought the Samsung lan stick thinking that with a new firmware upgrade that my existing BD-P1600XAC would finally get Netflix..nope. All I have available is the YouTube access & can't seem to get answers on how or what to do (other than toss out player) to get Netflix...or even if this option or upgrade is available on this model of blu-ray player...does anyone have answers on this...much appreciated.
rbyskal,
Glad to have you drop by. But just so you know, this forum is meant to mainly support US products and customers. And from what I can tell, this model is for Canada. (Correct me if I'm wrong.) So while I can't help you directly, if you want Samsung help, here's the Samsung Canada portal for support on that product: http://www.samsung.com/ca/support/model/BD-P1600/XAC
If you contact them, they'll be able to give you an authoritative answer. Hope this helps you!

I contacted Samsung Canada on the phone and got the answer, albeit not what I wanted to hear, that this particular blu-ray player will only stream YouTube & Netflix is not available even after the firmware upgrade of 2.19. I
