No, it was still going strong , but the smart features had mostly disappeared as the apps were no longer supported ,passed it on to a family member and upgraded to a 49 inch 8000 series.
@@hilary211 I have the Samsung LE32C550. Still working like new. No smart teve apps in this version - so it does not get outdated software. Working like new because it has been used so little. I do not watch teve so much. I use the Chromecast for Netflix and RU-vid.
= ( I had an old school freind pass before we could rewalk the tow path , I took a conker that was growing in a pot out to the bridge and planted it on the Sawley side to remember him by seemed like the thing to do . Now theres always a bit of him there for me . Next time down I will plant on on the Shardlow side for you .
Cheers Mr T, Many a time in the Shakespeare at Shardlow we bemoaned the endless delay in rebuilding the bridge. Sadly my mate passed away before the Fathorse was completed.
Fathorse Bridge was named after a towpath pub crawl when a local came in to the pub at Trent Lock and in the middle of some locals talking about the replacment bridge said " I nearly got hit on that new bridge by a Fathorse " Its now called Fathorse Bridge . Long Horse Bridge went 2003 .
I do like the concept of Internet TV and On Demand all built into the set as I am in the market for a new Smart, LED TV, maybe even 3D but not a necessity. But the only down side I seem to see is poor navigation, laborious key inputs and somewhat generally slow or choppy loading of menus (whether that's down to the processor, memory etc). But do you use iPlayer a lot and what's it like using regularly? As I use it a lot on the Wii at the moment and it's quite nippy with the motion control.
anyone find that iPlayer menu navigation is incredibly slow? like scrolling left/right on the main menu (highlights 1:15 on this vid). don't think it's a internet speed issue - it's perfect on my laptop.
I've wondered this myself, I have a BD5300 player with internet@TV which hasn't implemented the iplayer, all I can think is that there is insufficient memory in the player to support the application.
One thing I have found is that the volume control does not work properly, at 0 its loud. The normal TV volume control is disabled. Also there is no way of adjusting the brightness of the screen whilst within the internet@TV applications. I've raised this with Samsung, with post any response.
Nothing more to buy! The applications are stored in the TV's internal memory (about 500Mb I think). When you connect the TV to the Internet, it will automatically update itself with the latest apps.
