Flash itself is end-of-life, Adobe hasn't been officially supporting it on anything but PC and Mac for several years already. If you absolutely want Flash on your TV, connect a PC. Dec 12, 2015. I just got this Samsung UN32J4500AK and I wanted to install adblocker plus to Chrome which is the default browser. I couldn't see how to do it so I went to the live chat with Samsung. It appears I can't update anything. Apparently it doesn't have flash player. Well here is what I was told.

Hi Leo. I just purchased a smart TV and while I can play videos from YouTube through the app, when I try to stream live sports, it won’t let me. I’ve looked at the web and it seems like Adobe has pulled their support of Flash Player for the Android TVs and Google Play. Is there a way I can use my TV to stream live sports (as this is why I got it)? I’m sure the TV is smarter than me so sorry if this is a petty request.

It’s not a petty request , but I think that you’re kind of stuck. The whole Android/Flash thing is a tough one to solve. Let me explain.

Flash and video

YouTube works well, but specific Android applications often run YouTube without using Flash. In fact, some websites use HTML [HyperText Mark-up Language]

HTML is an acronym for HyperText Mark-up Language.
Hypertext is a general term referring to a form of document that includes “links” – either references to other pages, other documents, or other locations within an the existing document – that can be used to go to the linked location. The ability to click on a link and have the referenced page be displayed puts the “hyper” in hypertext.
Mark-up Language refers to the specific techniques and rules used to encode links and other information into an HTML document.

'>HTML 5 to run video without requiring Flash. Unfortunately, as you’re seeing, not all sites are doing that. They’re still using Flash, which your TV just doesn’t support.

Whether you’re watching sports or some other type of program, watching any video depends on the service, the site, and the source.

Contact the manufacturer

These days, many TVs are playing with this concept of being interconnected or connected Internet devices themselves. In many ways the technology built into your TV is in its early stages. Manufacturers are still trying to figure out what’s important and what’s not, what works and what doesn’t.

Unfortunately, I don’t have good news for you here. Your ability to view Flash video depends entirely on your TV. The best way to see if that can be made to work is to contact the television manufacturer and see what kind of solution they can offer. They may have additional resources for you.

But I’m not hopeful about that. If nothing else, contacting the manufacturer gives you the opportunity to tell them, “Here’s what I want to do, but your TV doesn’t deliver.”

Your alternatives

Now, it is still a television set. You can still connect to cable, satellite or an antenna. I realize that’s not what you’re trying to do. You’re probably trying to stream a sports event that isn’t available on your broadcast TV channels or however you’re getting regular television.

One solution that I’ve taken is to actually dedicate a PC to the task. I have a (Windows 7) PC sitting underneath my TV. It can run Flash, a web browser, Amazon streaming

Streaming most commonly refers to the act of transferring data to your computer or device for immediate consumption. For example, watching live video on your PC would be watching a video stream.
Video streaming typically requires that the internet connection being used is sufficiently fast to meet the requirements of the video’s size and encoding, often referred to as “bit rate”. If your internet connection is capable of up to 1.5 megabits per second, then only video streams with bit rate requirements lower than that will play properly without interruption. Unfortunately, it’s difficult to determine bit rate requirements of arbitrary video streams, and this is typically determined by trial and error.
Streaming is distinguished from downloading by what happens to the data once transferred. Streaming is viewed or listened to immediately, whereas a download is typically saved to a file for later consumption.

You'>streaming, and all of those things – basically anything that you can do on a PC, I can watch on my TV because I simply use the TV as the display for that PC. All that I had to do was connect the PC up to my TV, make sure the video card on the PC was up-to-date, and have an High-Definition Multimedia Interface [HDMI]
HDMI is a display and audio interface specification. As its name implies it's designed to support high definition video, as well as high quality audio. Most commonly used as an interface between an entertainment system or video game and a television, HDMI has also gained popularity as an interface between computers and televisions as well.

'>HDMI cable to connect the TV to the PC. That works really nicely.

I just focused on letting the TV simply being a TV and leaving it at that.
