Smart TV
To play a film on your Smart TV, you can use the built-in browser and go to www.cineasterna.com. You can also stream our films on Smart TVs that have built-in support for AirPlay and Chromecast.
Note: When playing a film on your Smart TV via our iOS app, you may need to activate subtitles using your TV remote (not through the app).
Connect your device directly to the TV
You can also connect your computer or tablet to the TV using an HDMI cable or a similar adapter. This way, the film’s picture and sound will be displayed directly on the TV screen.
Please note:
For playback to work, both the TV and the cable or adapter you use must support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection).
If the equipment does not support HDCP, the film cannot be played and you may see an error message or a black screen.
This is especially relevant for older screens, projectors, or adapters. Please check that your equipment is compatible.
