Question

Has anyone got the video doorbell II working on the Samsung TV ?  

Answer 1

Nope, Amazon wont allow the FireStick or FireTV to play things like Ring Cameras. And Ring doesnt work with SmartThings despite them saying it does so you can only control the lights and get motion events. Cant see video. Getting Ring working on another device is a nightmare.

@eucharist that's not true. Ring cameras can display on Firestick. I have it set up on mine.

My fire tv works with ring. I don’t have it set up to notify me but I can ask to see my cameras from Alexa and she displays the feed through the fire tv

---

@quade It doesnt if your in Australia, i been waiting 2 years for this feature and about to give up since Ring Floodlight also cant work on SmartThings despite it listed as compatible.  

---

@eucharist my ring works with my fire stick.  

---

@eucharist You should call someone that is local to you that knows how to setup your ring Ring works quite fine in Canada

---

@flori So your in Australia and it works, if so how? Because i've been waiting years for the feature to work here.

@cq9161 Thanks Debi, i guess it wouldn't work for you either?  

Answer 2

I use an amazon fire stick

Answer 3

I have it working but it’s annoying at times. I sometimes watch tv in the late evening and those neighborhood cats keep triggering my floodlight and the notifications pop up during my show

Comments

@diathermic We get cats triggering our Ring Flood Light Cam every night. However, a vehicle pulling into our driveway at night doesn't trigger it. It must detect infrared light only at nighttime.

@universality stupid cats

@diathermic yes

Answer 5

What do you need to know? You have to have a compatible TV which supports SmartThings.

@cq9161 I’m not sure where everyone is but in the US 2018 and newer Samsung TVv have an Apple app that lets you mirror.
