TVs that do anything more than displaying a signal exactly as it’s input shouldn’t exist.
I at least like audio with the display.
Instructions unclear, TVs now display audio via AI — Samsung
TVs that do anything more than displaying a signal exactly as it’s input shouldn’t exist.
Some of that input could do with a bit of tweaking though.
I wouldn’t mind if the TV was able to do things with the audio track, like remove background music, or lift the volume of people speaking, or erase laugh tracks/live audience hooting& hollering.
There’s probably similar manipulation that you could do on the video side (eventually, once TVs stop getting the worst processors ever, not here and now). Imagine a prompt that says “Airbrush every recognisable brand name on-screen so that it blends with the background”.
I seriously doubt if any major manufacturer would do that kind of thing though, so better get working on jailbreaking those TVs.
Sorry, the best we can do is always showing you subtitles by default, and not letting you permanently change that.
Yeah it’s steadily getting enshittified.
I used to have a mythtv box that I’d built , like, 15 years ago and it was pretty good. For a while there TV UIs were adequate enough that I didn’t need it, but it seems that maybe it’s time to build another one.
Instructions unclear. Added Starbucks coffee to every season of game of thrones
What you’re asking for is a monitor, not a TV. The last TV I’ve seen that is this limited still had a picture tube - and it wasn’t even the last CRT TV I’ve used (we actually had a very late one with HDMI). Regardless of how silly AI features are, there’s a middle ground.

Nvidia’s AI upscaler is pretty dope though. I wouldn’t mind seeing that fleshed out more.
Yup. One of several reasons why the Shield TV Pro is still the best streaming box. Using a smart TV after having gotten used to this device is painful.

It suddenly needs a gigawatt datacenter to do its job?

I was confused by the “Spatial 3D sound” one, because spatial audio is genuinely pretty awesome. But yeah, the whole head tracking thing is basically useless and I immediately disable it when I can.
Spatial audio is a scam unless you have some really nice equipment
I dunno, I think it sounds good listening to Dolby Atmos with my AirPods.
Really? I never noticed any significant improvement, but I usually don’t have Atmos enabled.
