How do I connect to Netflix/Youtube/Pandora on my Blu Ray player?




Amburrrrr


I just got an LG blu ray player...the LG BDP620 and it says that it is pandora/Netflix/Youtube/Huluplus compatible but I can't for the life of me figure out how to do it! I've gone to the LG Apps center and when I search, they don't come up. Any tips??


Answer
First you have to get the BluRay player connected to your home network. Run a Cat6 network cable from your router to the player or if the player has wireless, use it.

Sometimes you have to buy the optional 'dongle' to get a player to become wireless.

If yours is like this - do NOT buy the wireless dongle. It will run you about $80-$90.

Instead - go to BestBuy and purchase a Western Digital TV Live box for $99. Get a inexpensive HDMI cable (like the Media Bridge brand for $9-$20 from Amazon) to hook it up to your TV.

This little box gives you about 30 different apps and does not cost much more than the wireless dongle which might give you ... 8 apps? It is a much better device, gives you more apps, gets updated more frequently and lets you play computer video files from a USB flash drive.

Trust me - I did the $90 dongle for my Bluray player and it works, but the WD box works much better.

Hope this helps.

How can I get Netflix on my Samsung Blu Ray Player ?







I have a Samsung BD-P 1590, and I updated to the latest firmware but all I have is YouTube, if anyone knows how to get Netflix please let me know.


Answer
Netflix should be built in to your player. When the unit is "Stop Mode" press the Green(B) button on your remote. This should bring up the Netflix initialization interface. If this does not work you will need to contact customer support.
