Why the hell would I connect my TV to the internet? It's a display device.
You will take my Display Port/HDMI/RCA input and like it.
Idk... to display stream video? I know I know it sounds crazy.... Who would want to see tv through internet. Watch shows from providers or even their own video field from their own hosted server, that would be crazy.
Even watching via Xbox connected to the TV is a better option than that.
I have an Xbox, a fetch tv box and a Chromecast.
Combined with a PLEX server it's all I could need.
Disconnecting my great Samsung display from the network and using it as a display/audio output device only and never seeing another ad was a really good decision.
Yeah good point... if only there were better support for the alternatives to Plex, like Emby/Jellyfin. Well I think there is an Emby app on the Xbox case....but is bad I think.
