Too Smart for Our Own Good 08 Feb 15

Here are some helpful tips. Most Smart TVs have an App or Channel Store or a way to search for applications to add to your TV or device. You’ll need to install either the “Vimeo” App or the “Facebook Watch” App. In some cases, you may need to have a Vimeo or Facebook account when installing these apps on your TV (you do NOT need an account when watching on the web).

The Vimeo App is available on the following devices:

Amazon Fire TV: search for “Vimeo”
Samsung Smart TVs (2015 or newer)
Apple TV (4th generation or newer): search for “Vimeo” in the App Store
Android TV: search for “Vimeo” in the Google Play Store
Roku: search for “Vimeo” in the Channel Store

*some helpful tips for locating us on Vimeo:
• try searching for “Generations Church” under “People” or “Channels” rather than “Videos
• link: vimeo.com/channels/generations

The Facebook Watch App is available on:

Samsung Smart TVs (2015 or newer)
Amazon Fire TV: search for “Vimeo”
Apple TV (4th generation or newer): search for “Vimeo” in the App Store
Android TV: search for “Facebook Watch” in the Google Play Store
Xbox One
Oculus TV
Portal TV

*some helpful tips for locating us on Facebook Watch:
• search for “Generations Church” or “Generations Church NC”
• link: facebook.com/GenerationsChurchNC

Note: If you don’t have one of the listed compatible platforms or prefer not to install the apps, you can stream Vimeo videos and Facebook videos from your iPhone/iPad and Android device to a TV:

1. Make sure your TV is connected to a streaming device (example: Apple TV, Chromecast or Samsung TV) and is on the same Wi-Fi network as your mobile device or computer.
2. Open Vimeo or the Facebook app on your mobile device or computer and find the video you’d like to stream.
3. Tap the video to expand it to full screen mode.
4. Tap in the top right of the video.
5. Select the TV/device where you’d like the video to play.
