View cctv through smart tv

I have a Samsung smart TV too.
Assuming your NVR has an ethernet connection and you have an ethernet feed next to the TV.

There are small basic Windows boxes that have no screen. Get one and install the Hikvision app iVMS, connected to a spare HDMI input on the TV. Or if you have an old Windows laptop, use that instead.

You can then see all the cameras on the TV, and control all the NVR functions remotely.
Assuming it is a hikvision machine....

There is no easy option other than to run a cable. There have been lots of good suggestions but all won’t achieve the simplicity and ease you are looking for.

i cant run a cable. Thats the problem. The manual says the system supports remote access via web client.

yes the web client works great on PC and the app on phone/tablet but to broadcast to the TV you need to mirror or run a small computer like suggested none of these are easy quick options if you just want to turn TV on and see your cameras.
