Up until this week I have always been able to mirror my Fibe app on my android to the tv (not Chromecast). Did something change?

Hi everyone,

Samsung Smart View and other "screen mirroring" services are no longer supported with the Fibe TV app.

 

Check out our blog "Watch Bell Fibe TV on most devicesOpens in a new tab or window" or see the Fibe TV appOpens in a new tab or window for officially supported casting options; such as Apple Airplay or Google Cast.

Why chromecast isn’t available?

Some how I am no longer able to stream my Samsung phone to my Samsung TV using the bell Fibe TV app. It literally worked over the weekend. And now today while I am trying to watch the news. It will no longer connect. An error message comes up on the Fibe side, saying that they can no longer stream to apple or Chromecast.

I have the same issue when mirroring on my TV

We have a cabin, with no services and we were able to screen mirroring until last week, now it's blocked

screen mirroring with android smart view

 

 

 

Thanks.  That is the same issue for us.  No wifi at the lake and was able to mirror to TV using a ScreenBeam Mini2 until last week.  Hopefully not permanent as Chromecast etc. all require wifi.

Did you mean casting or mirroring? Casting is good from my iPhone to my Fibe TV Box, Bell Streamer and Apple TV Box. For mirroring, nah. 

But did you used to be able to?

we were able to screen mirroring for the last 18 months at ou lac cabin.

no chromecast , no airplay of any sort

Bell Fibe change some settings in their app for sure, that blocks screen mirroring since mi september

 

 

 

Why can't I use my smart view on my Roku tv anymore?! We're up at our cottage and it's ALWAYS let us watch from our phones! What's going on? Why is there an error message

Cause it's not available to Roku at all. Is the phone roku lol?

Okay.... I have ALWAYS used "smart view" on my Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra (my phone). To view Bell on whichever 'smart' tv we've owned. Roku or otherwise. I was asking why I can't from my phone... On any tv... From my Samsung phone

Did you register your cottage’s address with Bell TV service?

Samsung Smart View previously worked with the Fibe TV app. For Samsung users with Roku Tvs chromecast is not compatible and Airplay is obviously not an option. How should this situation be handled? It seems like disabling smart view is a decision that would lead customers to stop using Bell as their TV provider.

Same thing for me. Always be able to screen mirroring (smart view) at the cabin (with no internet). 

The problem occurred when the last update was done..donc...

Please stop saying that Bell tele fibe does not support screen mirroring I was ALWAYS using this way (smart view) to see my program on my smart tv.

Please try to fix this very bad issu Thanks in advance
