Use the Samsung Galaxy S8 to wirelessly stream images, audio, and video using DLNA to other DLNA enabled devices like the LG B6 OLED 4K HDR Smart TV - 65" Class. Unlike Miracast technology used in a previous review where the screen image was being wirelessly transmitted, DLNA streams the actual images, audio, and video files to be processed, displayed and played on the other end.

To easily see all the DLNA devices available to connect to the Samsung Galaxy S8, just select the Samsung Connect App. By selecting the plus button on the bottom right, you can then add a DLNA device to stream to like the LG B6 OLED 4K HDR Smart TV - 65" Class.

  

Once you select the LG TV, you can then select 'Play/view content' on the LG TV screen, and then select what type of items you want to stream.

  

You'll then need to select what image, video, or audio file you want to stream.

  

The DLNA approach works although not as reliably as using Miracast.
