Has anyone set up a ddns on their movistar router? If so is it easy and any problems?

Thanks....

I use SmartyDNS on mine and no problems.

This is the manual for the one I have,

You're welcome. The easiest way to test it is to try logging on to ITV Player and see if that allows you in.  :)

Can Smarty be added to a smart TV?

It is possible depending on the make and model of TV. The link below shows an example of setting one up on an LG TV, obviously you would put in the settings given to you by your preferred DNS supplier.

I've used SmartyDNS for a couple of years now and no problems. Works out at around £30 or â,¬36 for the year.

It's a variation on a theme really. Have a look at this link, it should give you the general idea.  :)
