OK, last week Samsung came out with firmware release 1111 for a short time. Since my setup said auto download I got this update which did add the DIRECTV Ready/RVU support. I connected a DECA-BB to the DIRECTV coax and the ethernet from the DECA to the TV and paired it to my Genie, replacing a hardware client and it works. But sounds like Samsung has pulled this release for the moment.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I bought the 55" RVU DirecTV ready. It worked but only intermittently. Neither the Geek squad, DirecTV or Samsung could get it to work properly with or without extra equipment. So went for the genie which works. Many years ago I had a HUMAX TV with a DirecTV receiver built in. Worked perfectly.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It doesn't work, get message saying "This cool new feature will be available soon". So maybe in the future but not now Samsung.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This is the problem, Samsung on their site and a response here says yes but there's an answer from the community that says no.
