I have the UN65F9000AFXZA. Will this upgrade work with my tv? I'm trying to get Netflix and Directv RVU 4k working. Thanks in advance.

I believe so, but I do not recommend buying from Amazon. 60 day warrantee . Mine unit broke 90 days after buying it and Amazon will not fix unit.

This will actually convert your TV to 12k and send you to your own private island to view Netflix undisturbed..

Yes it will work great you will be pleased with what it does to your picture you'll be amazed you have a completely different TV You have no idea you do not know what you been missing but you might want to wait going to release another one within a couple months I would suspect

Yes this will work for the f9000. Once installed you will need to update Netflix. Don't reuse your old cable from the box to the tv...it will not work correctly

Watching netflix, the playback is choppy. It is as if the hardware can't keep up. It isn't our internet, we watch netflix on a variety of WiFi devices in this house and it works great on all of them. Everything is updated, I have not been able to resolve it. I'm very disappointed.

I used to have the 65" version. It will only show 4k photos from USB not video. I have found the nvidia shield to be one of the cheapest players for outputting 4k through HDMI.Before I returned the TV I used shield and it worked great using Mx player app.Unless you have a good graphics card connecting your computer. I have radeon 7750. It was choppy trying to play it through computer.

I don't use Netflix, but according to my research Netflix is still trying to bring 4K streaming to life. The reason is because 4K streaming takes double the bandwidth. Most consumers use only about half the bandwidth required for 4K streaming. I use 4K discs, such as Men In Black (4K version) to watch in 4K. Also, I have a Sony receiver that upscales to 4K (actually near 4K). I stream through it. I use Amazon Instant Video. According to some of the techno geeks, you have to check with your ISP to see if they have you connected up to a 15Mbps (minimum) service. Higher is better. Low streaming speeds will interfere with your 4K streaming; thus, you'll never achieve 4K delivery. Many ISP companies are trying to catch up to the demand. Therefore, check with your ISP to verify your connection speed. If it's too slow, you'll have to upgrade your service. Any 4K signal that goes into the HDMI port of your Sony TV will display as 4K. You have to make sure it's a 4K signal.

Yes, Netflix does not work any longer on the Samsung 48" or 55". For some reason it simply does not work. If you figure out how to correct this issue please let me know.

Thanks for the reply. I received your answer after ordering the Roku unit from Amazon, so installed it anyway. Surprise, it works just fine!

I set the windows battery setting to high/best performance and change SHE to super mode (or whatever the highest is labeled), and it works great (at least for Netflix - I haven't tried ESPN3 yet). Have you tried that? Also, is there an optin for less than 1080HD? Sometimes dialing it back to 780 can help. I routinely stream netflix with my 1215T plugged into my TV to watch movies on and that works flawlessly. I had stuttering problems on my old netbook when I tried this with ESPN3, but I haven't watched ESPN3 on my 1215 yet.

Great question...I just did a firmware update hoping that Netflix streaming would show up...no luck. Seems like it could work if they wanted to.

I just bought this TV, too, but don't have it yet. Do you mean does it come with Internet apps or something? It doesn't. You can hook up a PC display to it, per the specs. You need an external device to connect to the Internet. In regard to watching Netflix on the TV, have you considered getting Roku? It's a very small device you use for streaming on your TV instead of (or also in conjunction with) using your PC. I love it and have the XD which will be used with this Panasonic when it comes. I also just ordered Roku 2 XS (on sale on Amazon) which will be used on the Sony I'm currently using the XD on when that comes. They have a Roku LT, which is cheaper than these two and is $50-$60. There are also channels for all Rokus, though the better ones (like Netflix) charge a fee. Still, cheaper than cable/satellite and you don't have to have your PC on to watch them on TV. You can check them out either on Amazon or Roku.com. Easy to set up and to use, too. BTW, since you already have streaming Netflix to your PC, there would be no additional charge using Netflix with Roku and watching on your TV. You would just need to activate the Roku device through Netflix. Hope this helps you enjoy Netflix on your TV. :)

Jim, could you send me a link to where you read this information? I checked Sony's website and could not find anything mentioning netflix streaming on this device. Thanks -

My Roku 2 HD will not accept software update...have tried about 20 times. I can no longer access my Amazon Instant Video. Strange that my older Roku XD has updated and runs the new software for Amazon just fine!

There are no further firmware updates for this model. I ran into a similar problem, although my unit wouldn't load a Blu-Ray at all, much less play it. After much frustration looking for a non-existent solution, I got a nice Panasonic Blu-Ray player - that does Internet TV *much* better, I might add - and now can enjoy my Blu-Rays while still using the rest of the Samsung unit's "home theatre" functions, which pretty much boil down to the sound system at this point. The short answer is yes, it's crap.

I don't have the evolution kit, just the original F8500 60" that I purchased in Dec 2014. Netflix doesn't work at all with the "smart" tv. Instead I have the TV hooked up to a Mac Mini and I don't use the smart tv functions at all. Waste of time.

Double the native refresh rate over the UHD model. Very limited 4k content on the market and ISP don't push enough bandwidth. I owned the 9000 and I currently have this exact model. Trust me, the 8000 is better, no matter what Samsung says.

Robbie....Thanks for the wealth of discussion on the S560 I am another dope who thought he would get Netflix streaming only to find out the it was only available on the S460.. then my son in law called a few mins ago and said the tech that had just set up his HD TV and PS3 said he needed the disk from Netflix before he can receive netflix. He then said I should use the disk to set up the S560 .... now I can tell him the it "almost works" but needs a date/time config........any more ideas guys?

Hi Quentin! This receiver will pass and upscale 4k/60p video via HDMI. Since this receiver won't be the device that is decoding the signal from Netflix (more likely a BD player, Roku, or Smart TV), it will not need to be compatible with this format.

dma media extender will not currently work with netflix. With the vcmnetflix plugin i cant get video but no audio, this is due to a recent change with netflix using silverlight plugin. I would us the roku, but i hear they have some current problem too
