You have to program your remote to your Directv remote first. Then look at which ever port you plugged the dvd player into and you will have to change the input on your TV to that setting. Then you should be able to watch movies. Good luck!
You will still need to use your SAMSUNG remote to switch the source inputs since I do not beleive the DIRECT-TV remote has full function of the SAMSUNG remote.
