TH-50AS700A - Mirroring / Tunein

Dec 20, 2014 7:01PM PST

I cannot get anything to mirror. The ipad is running off the same wireless modem as the new tv but they just cannot pick each other up. Any suggestions?

Is it possible to use the My Presets function in the tunein app? Seems i have to scroll through all the Local Radio stations to find what i want to listen to at the moment.

Mirroring is still too hard for most.

There are dozens of reasons for it not to work which is why, when you can't get a tech to come out and work it out you hook up a cable from the device to the HDMI port.

Noted Bob. Does that apply to iPads, iPhones etc?

Each device mirrors in a different way.

It could be that there's a router setting (firewall most of the time) but mirroring over WiFi or networking is iffy due to data rates and more.

HDMI cables win every round.
