The My Family Cinema APP is only available on Android Devices. Most Smart TV's are evolving off Android and moving to their manufacturers own in-house operating systems. For example, Samsung now uses Tizen, LG uses WebOS and others are following suit. These do not support Android APP's and therefore the MFC APP is not compatible with them at this stage. An Android TV Box is the simplest and most cost-effective solution if you are stuck with this problem. These can be used in conjunction with already Smart or Non-Smart televisions and support all Android APP's. DOWNLOAD THE APP : Click Here. SHOP OUR TV BOXES : Click Here.

The typical short answer is no, however in certain cases it is possible depending on your PC's hardware and software specifications. As mentioned above, the My Family Cinema APP is Android so you will need to install an Android Emulator such as Bluestacks first to be able to run the Android MFC APP on top of your Windows operating system. Install the Bluestacks 5 software and then install the MFC APP onto Bluestacks. (Ensure that you install Version 5, not Version X.) We can't guarantee your PC's hardware specifications are sufficient, but you'll have to try and see. We can provide a trial account for testing. BLUESTACKS V.5 REQUIREMENTS Operating System : Microsoft Windows 7 and above. Processor : Intel or AMD Processor. RAM : At least 4GB of RAM HDD : 5GB Free Disk Space. DOWNLOAD : Click Here. NOTE : You must be an Administrator on your PC and have up to date graphics drivers from Microsoft or the chipset vendor. SHOP OUR TV BOXES : Click Here.

We recommend a minimum internet connection speed of approximately 5mbps to adequately access the My Family Cinema APP. This speed does however depend on the internet load in your house, as multiple online devices connected simultaneously will slow down your connection.

To ensure a quick and smooth installation process, please also check your Device's Security Settings and ensure that your APP's are configured to "Allow Unknown APP's or Sources" to be installed. Please note that the MFC APP will not install without this having been first correctly configured.
