Learn how to play a DVD or a CD directly on ipad or iphone without using a computer.

This article is about a gadget that I recently discovered in the cyber space that allows you to play any CD or DVD on your ipad or iphone wirelessly without needing a computer. What is even more exciting is the fact that you can also burn data on a recordable DVD or a CD straight from your ipad or iphone.

Before we get started you will need the following things:

1. Samsung Smart Hub DVD drive
2. Samsung Smart Hub Mobile app
3. ipad or iphone
4. wifi internet router with internet connection

Now, let us start by setting up the DVD drive on our network. The device actually creates its own wifi network and allows you to access internet through it and gives you the opportunity to stream any DVD or CD (except blue-ray) to not only your ipad or iphone but any wifi capable smartphone, laptop, desktop or tablet. It has a USB port that can accommodate a USB memory stick that you can access on the network.

Ok after setting up the DVD drive on your network download the smart hub mobile app from iTunes.

Make sure your ipad is connected to this new network that you created and not your existing wifi.

Make sure that the Ethernet port of the DVD drive is connected to the Ethernet port of your router so that your DVD network gets the internet connection. This is initially important as the devise has to be registered upon its first use.

Open the smart hub app and complete the registration process and you are done!

Another cool thing about this DVD drive is that you can share your media with 4 different people at one time. So you can connect up to 4 wifi devices with your player. And as I mentioned before you can also burn your ipad files and photos on a recordable DVD or a CD.

So, basically you will now be able to do most of the things on your ipad for which you needed a computer.

Even though the DVD drive is made to function without an ethernet connection however for good results I recommend that you keep the DVD drive connected to the Ethernet all the time.
