UN55ES8000 Allshare is Slow As Hell With External Hard Drive

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
When I download a movie I usually put it onto a USB key or an external hard drive (Sometimes 15GB bluray) and connect it to my UN55ES800 to watch. I don't use the allshare network streaming thing by choice. Anyways, when I connect an external hard drive to the TV, allshare will start "Loading" the contents and it's is so friggin slow; I could be waiting all night before it actually loads the movie I want to watch.

Is there any particular reason why it is slow? Considering the external drive is USB 3 and apparently the tv is supposed to have USB 3 ports. I've done this on other brands of TVs and its quite fast.

Any thoughts?

I have experienced the same problem. when I connected my external USB hard drives to the tv, they loaded the content for hours, never showing any content so I finally gave up and unplugged them. what's the deal with this ?I have experienced the same problem. when I connected my external USB hard drives to the tv, they loaded the content for hours, never showing any content so I finally gave up and unplugged them. what's the deal with this ?
