Hi,
my Surface Pro 1 does connect well with my Samsung Smart TV series 7. However, my new Samsung Pro 3 wont connect. It finds the TV and then tries to establish connection and asks to wait - maybe the TV should not popup a PIN code - but that never happens and the connection times out. Interestingly the Surface Pro 3 gets listed in the Samsung network device settings and is set to "allowed" for connection but the Surface Pro 3 still wont connect. Note i have deployed all latest updates on Samsung TV as well as Surface Pro 3.
I would appreciate to get this working again.
Thx,
Bernd

2014-12-17T17:21:40+00:00 I have the same problem, except with my SURFACE 2.
The TV is a Samsung UN55H7150 - Brand New.
The WPS screen showed up and I added the code to the surface. Now, it just sits there with the 'Connecting to SURFACE 2' message on the screen, and then eventually times out.
Both Surface 2 and TV are on their latest firmwares / updates.

the only Miracast certified Samsung TV's are the Echo-P Series TV.
There is no guarantee that an uncertified TV will work. Samsung DOES NOT CERTIFY THEIR TV'S. Their TV's don't fully support the Miracast standard.

Regardless, MS is going to have to develop a work-around since Samsung HDTVs are among the most common TVs and shooting the SP3's screen to an HDTV is a big selling point.
