The LG TVs are basically that if you just ignore the LG ui. You can plug in whatever input you want and have it automatically go there on launch.
I never see the LG UI. Only my nvidia shield

I’ll throw my money at any TV manfucturer that just sells me a dumb OLED TV with great picture quality. Heck, even drop the speakers, I won’t be using them anyway. Just a dumb panel with plenty of input/outputs.

FYI, LG and Samsung were both confirmed to take and upload periodic screenshots, whether you’re using native apps or an external input.

Thanks for the link. Looks like I had already turned it off.
Is not online
Same here. Love my LG tv, but it only talks to my shield. And my other tv talks linux. But nvidia is also walking down an ad ridden possibly ai path.
If it is connected to the internet, that’s not true. arxiv.org/abs/2409.06203
The last time I said basically this same thing, someone recommended something…I think it was an industrial TV or something? I can’t remember!
Industrial TVs or monitors, yeah, but that’s only a matter of time and the former are expensive.
I think there are “smart” monitors now with these things being built in.
It’s most Samsung who just put the TV OS on a monitor.
They are on a technical level always identical so you just end up with two skus for the same product. One witb and one with out the OS.
So it’s not that bad… Yet…
