I would immediately return that as defective. I’d rather use that old 1980’s portable TV that’s been collecting dust in my closet since they shut down the analog TV broadcasts.
My TV channels now come in through an app and just recently it started working on my Nvidia shield, still I can’t really disconnect the net from my samsung tv because explaining to my father how to use the tv app is already hard, he would not handle using it through the nvidia shield.

These already exist. I’ve also seen some that technically work but have pop-ups complaining about being offline.
