Dailymotion is a short video streaming application similar to YouTube. The dedicated Dailymotion app is not available on most Smart TVs, including Samsung TVs. If you want to watch Dailymotion videos on Samsung TV, you have to cast or Airplay it from your smartphone. Alternatively, you can also use the web browser on Samsung TV to watch the videos. In this guide, we will explain both methods in detail.
How to Cast and AirPlay DailyMotion Videos to Samsung TV
On your smartphone, install the latest version of the Dailymotion app from the Play Store and App Store. Now, connect your smartphone to the WiFi network where your Smart TV is connected.
Launch Dailymotion and play the video you want to watch on the TV screen. Look for the Cast or AirPlay icon on the media player. AirPlay support is only supported on the iPhones.
Choose your Samsung TV, and the video will play on your TV screen immediately. To stop the casting, click the Cast icon again and choose Stop Casting.
Stream Dailymotion Using the Browser on Samsung TV
The latest Samsung Smart TV models are equipped with a built-in browser to surf the internet. By using the browser, you can access the web version (www.dailymotion.com) to watch videos. Just visit the site and log in to your account to start streaming the video.
Note – According to Dailymotion’s official website, it supports only Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge browsers. So, the TV browser may fail to load on some TV models.
