No support. Just get android box or something to do that.

Meanwhile I'm still hunting high and low for update 1201 for Malaysia set of K Series TV.

So far only UK site has it, and hell UK firmware don't work with Malaysian set even though it is the same model designation. Must be the EU thingie on the firmware

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

Tecnically iinm the old OLED tech lifespan is short but the latest breakthrough as of last year or this year is like 100k hours already (of course not all OLED is created equal)

IINM Q7F is still Edge dimming right?

The best way to see dimming is like running a movie with those white middle logo as the start screen (usually it is like SONY or something in the middle in white lettering)

OLED you will see pitch black background (cause the individual pixels is turn off for blacks) while Edge dimming will dim the backlight from each corners until the word sony so you'll see like blooming effect (bright in the middle i.e. gray like black, dark at the rest of the screen)

I would just say buy whatever your budget allow

Do take note though that tech sort of change rapidly nowadays so a 5 to 7 year old TV is like approaching the time when you feel itchy to upgrade again hahaha.

You know 4K and HDR is pushed out quickly cause the TV manufacturers want to sell more TV right?

HDR is not even at the stable version yet XD

No not all files. It is more of the video encoding support. Samsung newer TV has a bigger range of support, but it doesn't cover "all"

http://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00050186/
look under Supported Video Resolutions and Codecs

I think fastest way to do it is by accessing the service menu and check the total panel on time (I believe it can also be reset but well not many shops will do that)

I find MU7000 has better build quality than KS7000 anyways

And 65 inch is always better than 55 inch especially in the living since more screen space is more immersive (i remember you mention your seating is also roughly 6 feet plus so that's perfect) (PS KS7000 has no 65 inch variant release in Msia, only bigger one than 55 would be 60, and it's damn rare)

Color reproduction is comparable on both panels (roughly the same), brightness is well, pretty good (KS7000 can get brighter a bit more)

The only thing missing is the moth eye coating I think, which if there is no bright light source reflecting or sun reflection, you can't really notice it.

Regardless it's a good buy. Enjoy your new TV at your new home XD

BTW what's the damage? IINM 65 inch is priced high, and the RRP is like 5 digit number haha.

Well in spec and online review, the KS 7000 series rivals the Q7 (and in some ways, the Q9 as well). But that's on paper and on very specific tests. In terms of price successor, the MU7000 is the successor of the KS7000 (price successor, not spec successor).

Anyways with the rarity of the older models (it has been discontinue for close to a year already), sometimes you got no choice but go for the next best thing.

And the MU7000 (MU8000 in US) is not a bad panel, it is not technically marketed as SUHD (they rebranded it back to UHD), the peak brightness is lacking, but as far as color goes I believe it is not too much worse.

It's still a decent mid range offering TV, I find it loads better than comparable 65 inch IPS panel offering by LG for instance.

MU7000 in Malaysia is MU8000 in US. it's a 120hz panel if i recall correctly.

Depends on budget and requirement lol

Dolby Atmos? 7.1? 5.1? Soundbar?

Need BD player? Ultra HD BD player?

So many to choose from.

Depends on the additional warranty is honor'd by which company

I don't think Samsung will honor extended warranty offered by let's say for example, SenQ.

It's probably the KS7500 65 inch (I see that still floating around alot due to the higher price = harder sell. In fact I believe brand new units for those is still floating around multiple places.

For 5.1 you may want to look for those Samsung unit with the wireless unit for the back speakers, makes wiring so much easier to handle.

Not sure if got such set for below RM1k though, I believe I got mine for like 3k+ 5 years ago LOL.

LOL. Hmmm my HT-6750W did not sound like crap though. It's old though so I don't have support for the latest Dolby like Atmos. Feel like upgrading hahaha but man new sets are so darn expensive nowadays.

PM me lol. I may want to look into changing it since I kinda have concealed cables for speakers during reno that I didn't use.

Kinda need ARC and audio sound support like DTS I guess.

Let's start with 2.5k Entry Level XD

Nah when i say wireless it is just that there is a powered box routing the back 2 speakers (it doesn't mean battery LOL)

Anyways previously during reno 5 years ago I did route a 12 gauge speaker cables (2 to the back, 3 to the front) in expectation of getting a higher end speaker. End up budget constraint (5.1 Onkyo was going like 5 digit figure at that time) so end up the cable is just left hanging there and I got a bundled BD HT system from Samsung (regret liaw hahaha, the surround is like mediocre XD) But it was cheap ah at that time for a 7.1 with the gimmick vacuum tube amplifier thing.

Well back to Samsung TV LOL

My KS7000 (and in fact the previous LED TV ES6220 have this sort of weird problem with ARC (HDMI Receiver) for my HT-6750W

Occasionally it just refuse to pair at all so I ended up giving up and just use the Optical Cable.

However today I manage to revive it again. The remedy was leaving my HyypTV box to on instead of standby (once I put it to standby it stop pairing again)

ROFL weird ass problem.

Yeah this morning the whole HDMI-CEC (for every damn device) decide to unpair itself after working for a day.

So I turn off both HT and HyypTV STB (the STB is connected to my HT/BD HDMI in) and unplugged the HDMI 4 and wallah CEC works back after reboot.

Maybe I should just leave the damn STB plugged off permanently.

Just leave a message or better still dig the actual phone from their store page.

I know "some" of them are just old posting with no stock backing the sales.

Budget is one thing. Usage of the TV is primary for what first?

Gaming (PS4), HDR? Movies? Sports? Astro?

iIf PS4/HDR then I you probably need to hunt high and low for KS7000 XD Chances are damn slim though. You probably won't be satisfied with the KU series, it has significantly worse HDR performance and that's what's important for games such as Horizon Zero Dawn.

As far as I remember mine only can access DLNA or Homegroup folders, there is no place for you to add SMB login.

And Samsung TV are abit dumb in outputing subtitles, if the sub file is on a separate file it will not read it. You have to mux the sub in the video container (quite easy to do on the pc)

There should be a reload Netflix app in app (under setting)

And yes I notice after some amount of video watching, suddenly Netflix will just start buffering more often or stuck at buffering.
