I can screen view and see my phone on the tv but when I attempt to play a video, only the sound plays through the tv (the screen is black). I am attempting to play my workouts on the tv to make it easier to see but there must be something I'm missing with my S8 (considering an old Iphone 5 could immediately cast).

2. Use a USB-C to HDMI adapter
Samsung's phone is one of the first that is confirmed to actually work with USB-C to HDMI adapters, which have previously been used almost exclusively with computers like the MacBook. Just connect your phone to the adapter via USB-C, then run a HDMI cable between your TV and the adapter. Once it's plugged in and you're on the right HDMI input on your TV, you should see your phone's display mirrored on your TV. Best of all, this works at up to 4K resolution at 60Hz!

3. Use Samsung's DeX dock
DeX is a desktop dock with a difference — as well as serving as a stand and charger for your phone, it also allows you to connect peripherals like monitors, keyboards and mice so you can get some proper work done on your phone, using it just like a PC. That means the DeX dock will also work if you want to connect your phone to your TV, so don't be afraid to give it a try!
4. Use Miracast for a wireless connection
Samsung's Galaxy S8 supports Miracast, allowing you to stream to compatible Smart TVs without needing to use a cable. That's a little more convenient, but you'll be limited to 1080p resolutions at 30 frames per second (versus 4K / 60 fps for a wired connection). To get personalised instructions for your TV, search for the name of your TV model in Google, plus the term ‘Miracast' or ‘screen mirroring'. Good luck!
5. Stream using a Google Chromecast
Google's Chromecast remains one of the easiest ways to stream videos or mirror your phone's display to your TV. Just plug this HDMI dongle into the back of your TV, install the Google Home app on your phone, and set up your Chromecast. Once it's ready, you need only select the cast symbol in compatible apps to start streaming. Once streaming has started, you can control playback from inside the app itself. You can also mirror your display by using the Google Home app.
