Likely causes

WHY

  • Outdated Samsung app build or unfinished TV system update
  • Device not yet authorized after a password reset
  • Profile switch mid-playback left the app in a bad state

Fix steps

FIX
  1. Force a cold boot: hold the power button until shutdown, unplug, wait a full minute, then start fresh into Samsung.
  2. Refresh Samsung to the latest build, reboot once more, and only then retry playback.
