Hey do anybody know where you get a tv that supports 4k and does not have that locked up smarttv shit?
If there are none, does anybody know a tv that boots fast(less than 30 seconds) and displays an hdmi input by default without the need to choose the input from a menu.
Thanks in advance.
And sorry if I am in the wrong place.
You’re right. What you really need is a tv that reacts less bad to being online. It’s a shame Logitech killed the Harmony because dumbing down your tv successfully generally requires a universal remote.
As a long time Harmony user, expert, and former employee … The Sofabaton remotes are the closest substitute I’ve found. Easy to configure and use. Just no “activities” like a Harmony. But at least you can set it to control the volume on X device when you have it in the mode to control Y device.
Activities are the killer app of Harmony. How do you set it to switch inputs on the various devices?
It has a physical scroll wheel to switch between devices. The on each device mode you can customize the buttons.
I use configure one of the buttons to be a hot key to set the TVs input for the device I have selected.
Again, it’s not as automated as an activity, but it eliminates switching around to different devices and finding inputs.
