After extensive testing with Samsung smart TV's here in Canada and in the UK, it is the case that on some devices BBC iPlayer will not work. This is probably because Samsung locks down various apps by the TV model number, as model numbers in the UK are different to those in Canada and elsewhere.
Sadly there isn't very much we can do about this as it's a hardware limitation.


Please note that the VUDU app is not available to watch on any Samsung device sold out of the US. You can download it - but it will not workThis is due to a serial number block for this app. This is out of our control.


This guide will show you how to set up your Samsung TV/Blu-ray player to use our service. We'll also cover installing the UK apps (bbc iPlayer, ITV Player etc) & The US apps (Hulu Plus etc)

The internet service location will appear. If you wish to download UK apps such as BBC iPlayer select United Kingdom. If you wish to view US apps (Vudu, Hulu plus etc) Select United States. Please Note you cannot select 2 regions, i.e you can't have access to Vudu (US) and BBC iPlayer (UK) at the same time. You must repeat the smart hub steps every time you want to change.

As above we have selected UK. Select Next. You will need to agree to the terms of service.

Once you have agreed to the terms, the smart hub will need to restart.
