Anyone knows how to copy text using Samsung Tizen Web Browser? I am stumped such a simple feature is not supported by so called smart TV.

I am using a Wireless Keyboard/mouse and also tried the Smart remote. Using the basic features is not a problem, all working, except highlighting text to copy and paste.

I see 'HyppTv Everywhere' Icon on my KS7000 Apps (2016 Model). I don't use it so don't know if fully functional. For 2017 models ask the new owners.

Smart TV sometimes create files and write to Thumb Drives/Hard disks connected. If just simply switch off main power while it's writing can corrupt the hard disk.

My KS7000 creates and write to 2 files in whatever drives it accesses. When I shutdown the proper way using the remote, the Power to the TV shuts off immediately, but the power to the USB connector box doesn't switch off until about 10 seconds later. This I presume
is to ensure the usb drives are safely disconnected before turning off the power.

Very clear resolution thumbup.gif in conclusion, better shutdown before cutting off the power.
Btw, I'm wondering what is the proper way to eject them? Seems like there is no eject option available in the TV. rolleyes.gif

I already told you. Shut down with remote. The Tv will know what to do.

In my Tv , 10 seconds after shutdown , the One connect box which houses the Usb , will check the drives (There will be some drive light activity) and then when it stops, the power to the box will switch off with a 'tak' sound.

However if you want to remove while the Tv is on, then at least ensure there is no drive light activity first.

There's no such thing as a 'digital' antenna. Any old UHF antenna with RF connector can be used to receive DVB-T2 digital signal.

Also, how sure are you your TV can read such a large capacity 4TB drive?

Although the 2016 KS models already discontinued and replaced by the 2017 models some shops may still be selling.

Also got different KS models and with diff sizes , so be more specific which you are feferring at rm6k.

Quick check with Lazada 55in KS7000 rm5,399/-

If you were reading the posts here 2 mths ago , Best Denki was getting rid of KS7000 stock at rm4,8xx/ before Qled launch . Display set was rm3,999/-. You are too late.

I think Homepro Summit still selling KS7000 model, but listed price quite high. Maybe you can try ask them if they can negotiate price.

Yup. Saw it on display 3 weeks ago. Still available or not, don't know. Can also try your luck at Homepro IOI Putrajaya. But haven't been there for 3 months.

I suggest you only buy a HDR TV only when necessary. Better wait until your old TV needs to be replaced then buy. If you are buying because of the hype, then you might be disappointed.

Even the current 8 bit colour TVs contents today are still not fully utilising the available colour range. Currently due to the push by manufacturers, we are seeing more contents in 10bits HDR (Real of Fake).

But in time , I suspect the hype will die down, and slowly the contents will remain mostly 8 bit color.

Here's a sample from youtube 4K HDR demo. Even your old 8 bit non-HDR TV will be able see how colourful the images are, even though you won't be getting true HDR or 4K (depending on your line speed).

Sample Video -

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TehmBX0V7hU

My point is even with 8 bit TV, the images look fantastic so is HDR really that big a step forward as we are led to believe? I know HDR is more than just colour range, it's about Brightness too, but such scenes only happens sparingly.

Maybe not for TV viewing, but 4K HDR gaming with PS4 Pro really makes the image 'pop' with the lighting and rich color. this is also the primarily reason why I buy a KS7000

Currently HDR10 is a bit of a mess. It's a hit or miss situation. Some look good , some look worse than SDR.

Better to wait for clearer developments. Even at this moment the current HDR10 is being replaced by HDR10+, this is the one that support Dynamic Metadata, where each scene can be controlled individually by the content instead of one blanket settings throughout.

The Qled series already has this standard built it. The KS series was promised a fw upgrade in 2nd half of the year by Samsung but whether it's workable or not without additional hardware we have to wait and see.

Something of interest about HDR gaming (as it is at the current situation) :-

Nvidia was caught red handed when demo one HDR monitor side by side against an SDR monitor for HDR games. This was to show how much better HDR was.

But they were exposed as cheats. Turn out, they purposely adjusted the SDR monitor to make it look bad so that the HDR monitor will look good.

After the reviewer did a factory reset and proper adjustment of the SDR monitor, it turns out some parts of the HDR game look better on the SDR than the HDR.

I need it bcoz moving new house. Now i plan use for new 4k media player , ps3,mb future ps4 and stream live tv.

Then wait few months longer for news of HDR10+ before buying. Currently I see from your usage you don't really need 4K HDR TV just yet. PS3 games not HDR and only 720P, will be upscaled by the TV. It won't be any better than a Full HD TV.

If you are thinking of using 4K Media player to watch 4K bluray movies, there is none available yet. No one has cracked the encryption yet.

Live TV streaming ,so far, only very few titles in 4K, let alone HDR. Even then some of the contents not true 4K, just upscaled from lower resolution. And also you must have a line speed of at least 25mbps to stream 4K contents of decent quality.

There are 4K bluray rips available.. Just have to know where to look.. nod.gif

As far as I know only a handful of 4K title was copied. Not because the encryption was cracked, but some flaws in the copies itself that enabled them to be copied. So don't get your hopes too high just yet.

But the day will come, hopefully soon smile.gif

4K Bluray will be cracked in next 6 months, HDR10+ will become the standard, and you will buy brand new 65 in 4K HDR TV this year end, my prediction biggrin.gif

laugh.gif  laugh.gif.. Nah, not this year.. I've still got warranty, so if any issues, I get a replacement. Basically, I'm waiting and hoping that OLED tech issues get sorted and it becomes cheaper. If by my deadline, it's still too pricey, then no choice...Won't be able to tahan any longer. Probably pick up a 65/80" 4K Dolby Vision or whatever is its successor by then brows.gif

Dolby Vision can play HDR10, backward compatible I think,

Anyway HDR10+ with Dynamic Metadata is already close to Dolby Vision and it's free, so I think it will be easily adopted. Dynamic Metadata is the key feature that will make the previous HDR10 now consistent with quality throughout, no more hit or miss quality in future.

MKV h.264 or h.265 no problem. All my old media players can't play h.265 (as expected because newer) but KS7000 no problem. But to be honest I only tried one x.265 mkv file so far.

Some of the RMVB downloaded for ahem have some sort of weird codec encoded in it then the TV can't play it anymore

I confess I only tried some old collections of RMVB. I don't have any new ones to try.
