I have Bigpond Cable internet which has plenty of speed for live streaming of video feeds.
My TV is not a smart TV - it is a Panasonic Viera I purchased new in 2006. What do I need to watch internet TV on my TV set? I hear Roku is good but can't get in Australia. What are the options available to us?

I just bought a hd6500 samsung bluray player to do just that. It was the best option making a smart tv out of a non smart one. Has netflix app as well as many others as well as being wireless or wired, can play blurays of course and can handle 3d and 4k when you get it. Plus it is really fast to boot up and it only cost $137 from harvey norman on special. Another option is media players like wdtv or similar from office works etc or you can go as cheap as getting a chromecast for $50 or cheaper. I wanted something i didn't need to use the phone for as a remote so the above ticked all the boxes.

Use a google dongle plugged into you Mobile.

We asked him if the engine had actually been called “Seagull” and how that came about. “Actually it was just call “Gull”, because I named it that. Because we knew it was going to poo on everything”. |
