Ken's Deputy 4,460 Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 Placing an order, last night. It actually Forced a " Free Trial " on me. No way round it. Not terribly fussed. Could this be my route away from the snow flake ridden Netflix? Could anyone offer me any pointers? How best to play the system? Cheers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just get a Firestick and install an IPTV sub, lasts for 12 months and you get the job lot. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ken's Deputy 4,460 Posted June 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 " Firestick " I remember those! Red things with a twist. Used to stick them on the boot and go around blowing everyones doors off, coming in wall to wall! As for that other thing? Sorry. Try to imagine you're talking to a man who's been in a coma for the last forty years. 1 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Get a Firestick, plug it in to the back of your TV and download a few apps and bingo. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ken's Deputy 4,460 Posted June 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 Thanks. But, no tv. I'm actually looking at how to play films from my phone to my screen. My internet is so shrivelled now, no way I'm spending £300+ to replace this one. Not just to read a few forums and order stuff from amazon. Which sort of brings us back round to what to best do with what I have Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ken's Deputy 4,460 Posted June 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 No tv, King. But, I'm getting solid info elsewhere that the plugs and leads exist to allow me to plug my android phone into the HDMI socket on this screen. That summarises my aim: No tv. No computer. Still watch films and read here. Got to save money I'd think. Just trying to get some hands on about this Prime. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
martyn2233 2,663 Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 What phone ?? what screen you using ?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ken's Deputy 4,460 Posted June 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 (edited) Phone's Huawei 2009(?). Screen's an Acer. Dead cheap and basic. But, I know it has an HDMI socket. Oh. And I run external little speakers, from somewhere. PC, I think? Hadn't thought of that. Edited June 12, 2020 by Ken's Deputy Extra information added. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
