Q: QuestionAccessing files with non-samsung devicesCan a non-samsung device be used to access media & files you store on the HomeSync? Does it have similar functions as other network storage media devices like: - DNLA streaming? - UPnP access? - Samba file sharing? - AFP? - NFS? - FTP? Or is samsung trying to make the files you store on the 1TB only accessible from other new samsung devices?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer There is a Samsung Link PC application (compatible with Windows XP/Vista/7/8 [RT not supported]) which allows a user to access their HomeSync content from their PC. Non-Samsung mobile devices and Macintosh computers are not supported at this time. Does it have similar functions as other network storage devices? • DLNA streaming = Yes • UPnP access = No • Samba File sharing = Yes, if you install a 3rd party application from the Google or Samsung App Stores. • AFP = No • NFS = No • FTP = Yes, if you install a 3rd party application from the Google or Samsung App Stores --Mr.Samsung

I have gone through all the settings, with no luck. And I'm unable to see my homegroup shared files anywhere!
Asked by Sanjeev.
- A:Answer Sanjeev, If you're having trouble with the settings on your HomeSync device, please reach out to the Best Buy Geek Squad Agents or Samsung's customer service center for more information. Without more information, it's difficult to imagine where you might be running into trouble, and a live support option would be more helpful than this format. Thanks for your support of Samsung products. --Mr. Samsung

Q: QuestionWould the HomeSync play files from my network?I have a WD My Book Live hard drive on my home network that acts as my media server. Would the HomeSync be able to access the WD My Book Live hard drive and stream my video files on my tv?
Asked by Colin S..
- A:Answer It would depend on the file types in your library. Some movie files - especially rare ones - may need to be re-encoded. But many formats will be supported on this model. This is designed to be a central place for storing files in your network. --Mr.Samsung

Q: Questioncan i stream movies straight from my samsung tablet to this device to be seen on my tv
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer Yes, for the most part. HomeSync turns any TV into an AllShare Play (DLNA) compatible TV. If your tablet/smartphone are on the same wireless network as HomeSync, the AllShare Play icon should appear in the corner of the movie playback app; when you tap it, playback will be transferred to the TV. Some contents’ DRM may prevent AllShare Play from playing the movie back. Mr. Samsung
