Stream video from iphone or ipad to Samsung smart TV


Samsung Smart View 2.0 (Free app)

I was searching for a possibility how to stream video from iphone or ipad to Samsung smart TV.
Samsung has an official app called Samsung Smart View 2.0 with following features:

1.) Smart View 2.0 turns your mobile into a mini TV
2.) Extend your mobile content to your Smart TV
3.) Use your Mobile device as a TV remote Control

Unfortunatly as in 2nd point mentioned, just local content can be streamed. For example saved photo, movie works fine. But to stream a embded video from any website is not possible.

Video & TV Cast for Samsung Smart TV (Free app with in app purchase)

After some time searching I discovered the app called Video & TV Cast.

As mentioned in the app description:

With Video & TV Cast for Samsung Smart TV you can browse the web and stream any web video you want on your Samsung Smart TV. Mp4, m3u8, hls livestreams and also https are supported.

The instructions for installation provided in the app description worked for me at the first time. First site which I tried out and worked excelent was http://en.iphone-tv.eu/index

One downside at the moment which I see, is that each time I would like to stream embded video first I have to manualy start the Video & TV Cast app on the TV.
It would be nice feature like for example in youtube app that it detects and starts automaticly as soon I chose to stream a youtube video.
