Hello
We have a Samsung UE40NU7120K TV which works well online. However, Smart View on my PC, my laptop and A50 Smartphone all say "No TV Found". I cannot get beyond this stage.
So far I have:
Confirmed I have the latest version of Smart View on all devices
Confirmed TV is fully updated (version 1290)
Confirmed TV is working online via house WiFi
Confirmed PCs/phone working online via house WiFi
Confirmed all devices are on the same subnet, default gateway and DNS settings
Confirmed the PCs can ping the TV successfully
But am at a loss as to what to do next to get this working.
At my father's house his older Samsung Smart TV connects to Smart Viiew first time everytime.
Your thoughts please!

Hi, I'm just wondering if you got sorted linking your devices to TV. I'm having the exact same issues, can't screen mirror or anything! It's like my tv is undiscoverable. It's so frustrating! Any advice would be really appreciated! Kind regards, Aisling

Sometimes,when used long time,samsung tv software becomes unresponsive.Unplugging tv from power source and restarting tv solves this problem.

In the end I have ditched the Samsung software, nothing worked. Instead I have used Universal Media Server to get the connection I wanted. I can now play media stored on my PC in our TV. I found Universal Media Server very easy to setup and use. Maybe a background in IT helped but would think anyone ought to be able to do it with the instructions available.

@Ashk16 , What's the model number of your TV?
TV's after the 2016 range won't support Smartview, so it's best to try and use SmartThings instead: https://www.samsung.com/uk/support/tv-audio-video/what-is-screen-mirroring-and-how-do-i-use-it-with-...

Smart Things is the better option for more modern Tv's, even if Smart View currently works on your set there may be issues.
Been mentioned in the Community before but worth reiterating that support for Smart View will end on 5 October for all models, if you still have the app may be able to use it but will not be available for download after this date.

I do not work for Samsung or make Samsung Products but provide independent advice and valuable contributions.

Try to use SmartThings and connect your Tv. If you're getting the error in SmartThings too, check this one out.
