I don't need my TV to keep up with the latest software like I do my computer. I'd like it to load apps for the streaming services and search YouTube videos. If it can do that today, it can do that five years from now. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 5 child comments replies: [–] Verat@sh.itjust.works 17 points 7 months ago (2 children) But if a codec change or such happens (like to AV1 or h.265), it might not, we have an older 4k smart tv (Sharp Aquos LC-60UE30U) that can't handle 4k streaming without dropping to single digit fps. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] FG_3479@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago (1 child) Have you tried turning "Motion Enhancement" or "Aquomotion" off? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] Verat@sh.itjust.works 1 point 7 months ago Yep, what few "features" the screen has have all been turned off, it is just kind of crap, when it got its (singular) software update, the update progress screen was displaying the top half of its frame on both halves of the screen. permalink fedilink source parent [–] bitwolf@sh.itjust.works 4 points 7 months ago* (1 child) You could accomplish that with a streamer though.
