Smart view works only for images?

Hi there,

I have a Sony S10+ and a Sony Bravia TV (my TV is new from Nov 20)

 

I don't use Smart View much, but I do believe when I used it a few months back, it worked.

 

Currently, when I go into my Gallery, I can only Smart View my images. I.e. I go into an image > click the Smart View button in top right > The options panel comes up with my TV and I click it and it work.

 

When I then navigate to a video, when the options panel comes up, no devices load. It just loads indefinitely.

Also when I drag down the options from the top menu, to try to Smart View my Phone screen, it also loads indefinitely.

 

Does anyone know why?

 

PS. Even images weren't working a few hours ago, but I read another thread where I have to uninstall Webview updates. I did that and now only images work.

 

Thanks

Update:

 

So I have two wireless connections, one for 2.4GHz and one for 5GHz. 

 

Both devices were on 2.4GHz when the images worked. I decided to try changing them both to 5Ghz.

On 5GHz, even the image would not connect, none of them worked.

 

I changed back to 2.4GHz and now images work again. Does this help with anything?

Hey @Rony28 

You can mirror your screen onto your TV using our SmartThings app, which you download from the Play Store.
