Btw, is it better to 'shutdown' the TV before turning off the power?
I usually just switch off the power plug when the TV is still on.
*
Yes.normally I do power down before off the power switch..

Please don't switch off the power plug when TV still on.. For security reason.

Quoting from other Forum I'm reading in relation to killing the power

"In the case of a digital television, you're talking about a power transformer inside the set that is really rated to handle those peak voltages, even at startup - but over time when you constantly subject a component to that spike it simply ages quicker.

The short answer is - no, you can't damage a digital TV by using a power strip to turn it off (especially if it's a high-quality surge protector), but yes it can age the set more quickly by putting the power components in the TV under a little more stress than they need to face."
"Electrical it's not advisable: You will certainly shorten the life of the power strip and or switch until it is damaged.

Whenever you intercept a circuit (using a switch or pulling the cord) an electric arc is created. Usually this arc exists only for a millisecond (or less)."
So basically, it won't spoil your set instantly, but it may cause some "degradation" to the power supply (the one that takes the 240v and convert to electric that your TV needs). It will be minor degradation but it will compile over time and in the long run it may cost problem.

Well said rclxms.gif
Basically need to shut down first via remote control tongue.gif

Guys, just bought a UA55KU6000, quick q:

1) There's no Games tab in the Smart Hub. How to enable it?

2) The antenna connector is RF. I plan to buy a Yakaki digital antenna, but the cable type is RG6. How to connect?

3) I hooked up a 4tb Passport NTFS external hard disk, it can browse the content but when I tried to play, it says unsupported format. I copied the same video to a usb NTFS thumb drive and it played flawlessly. Why?

4) How can I play a file from a network share with this tv?

Thanks
*
Digital antenna??? laugh.gif its freaking marketing gimmick.. No such thing as digital antenna... Just use the normal UHF one..

What I know, TV hard to "read" external hard disk.. Thumb drive okay.

Looks like most if not all of us will be looking at the 3 namely Samsung, LG and Sony for a set of TV. However, something changed my perception completely and it is the Pana EX750. The picture quality is as good as the Samsung SUHD but at lower price, fall in love with it when I saw it for the first time. To me it is way better than the MU7000.

Mind asking how much u bough the Pan EX750 model??

Looking for a NON SMART TV.(have android box)

55-60 inch
RM 3500  +/-

Anything to recommend?

Try getting KU series..
MU series is just overpriced, just because its 2017 model..
MU & KU not much difference.. just that its 2016 model.. So the stock may be limited..
