WLAN (smartphone coupling)
------
Registration in the home network went without problems, you could immediately start / download or surf the Internet Apps. Even my NAS (MyBook Live with Twonky Media Server) was found immediately, unfortunately me the access to the files was here initially denied (access prohibited). An update of the Tonky server to version 7 took then but the desired success. Who's genaus so goes, here the instructions for total noobs (like me): mybookworld[Punkt]wikidot[Punkt]com/forum/t-459592/complete-guide-to-upgrade-to-twonky-7-version-my-book-live-o
For Smartphone there different. Apps with which you can control the TV, or can duplicate the image on smartphone. Have a SGS2 with Android Jelly because everything went without problems. Very interesting is the sharing, ie photos and videos show the smartphone on the TV without cable ... The app called Samsung Link (formerly AllShare). Once logged in the tub and Joined TV (went quite automatically, a short confirmation on TV) has as YouTube a little extra symbol that the clip will stream directly to the TV at the "click". The same goes for photos directly from the gallery. Since signing the device automatically, you can at any time (when you're logged in WLAN) view a photo on your smartphone and stream with a single "click" on the Samsung.
Incidentally, the reception quality is very good. My router is a room, the wall is made of reinforced concrete!

DLNA (MKV) - Media Player
-----
Works on the update of Twonky (see above in the text) wonderful. Simply select source, then the Twonky server and play the NAS as desired photos, music and of course, movies. The formats are indeed in the data sheet. 3D MKV in HD (SBS) plays the TV without a murmur in all its glory. DivX and Co. are obligatory also playable :) No stuttering or interference ... Only the coils (problem is discussed in many forums) while movie playback is only possible using the arrow keys. But you can get over there but the search in the timeline and thus the direct jump to any point in the movie.

Internet, Apps and Co.
-----
As mentioned above all worked without problems. Have been thinking even a keyboard to buy texts to enter reasonable. Is a hassle with the remote control. A borrowed and tested by the neighbors, I have to confirm what has often been described ... Unfortunately, the keyboard does not work while in the browser, for example, in certain apps - eg Youtube or Spotify. Even direct shortcuts are completely absent (Browser Quick Launch, etc.). Needs to launch an app you look only shimmy through the smartHUB ...
Very nice work by the way Skype :)

Summary
-----
Short and sweet: Except for the small problems with the keyboard I am very satisfied and would buy the device at any time!

Tips
-----
- The station list is easiest to sort on the PC! Simply download the program "Samsung Channel List Editor" on the PC, the TV channel list on the USB stick expo animals (set menu), Sort list easily on PC, etc., and then import favorites Use again at Samsung. After restart it funtkioniert immediately ...
- Did I still gained a soundbar and NEN Bluerayplayer of Samsung. Advantage: you can control all devices with a remote control - very pleasant
- In order to use time shift, a media storage must be connected. Have a 64GB USB Stick drangehangen, then is not an extra device around ...
- If you have problems streaming via WLAN (stuttering, disconnections, etc.) then that does not necessarily lie with the poor reception, but may also related to the set standard IEEE 802.11 desRouters. If, for example, as a transmission standard a, b, g be set (you can see in the admin of your router menu and set) then the possibly too slow for HD streaming, also the range of the wireless network and ensure that the quality is lower. Better is "n", as higher transmission rates are possible and at the same time the range of the WLAN it is increased. Of course, the devices (Smartphone, PC, Tablet) scurry the else on the net about this standard should govern otherwise have these no longer receive. The current router (Easybox, Fritzbox, netgear, etc.) this standard since 2009 usually ...
- Timeshift is (for whatever reason) is limited to 90 minutes recording time. I therefore prefer to program the program for recording, since that is not limited in time, including 3 or 4 hours continuous recording. The current recording can also be seen a time lag, also before and jump back :)
- The Screen Share can search on your smartphone such as Youtube clips and then play on the TV. Who has no keyboard and no desire on the remote rumzudängeln, so has a lovely alternative. It takes but a few seconds will be played to the video - so do not be impatient;)

The Fehrnseher still works without problems. The only thing you notice is the formation of clouds. since about 4 months, gray clouds that you would just look at very dark scenes form. Interestingly, the clouds disappear again and formed elsewhere ... So it is not permanent and the clouds are not so bright that they interfere.
