If it was the other way around, I’d suggest an external FreeView / Sky etc receiver and just pipe the sound out to a bar and picture as normal to the screen.
Shame it’s cheaper now to throw them out (charities won’t take them due to some weird H&S stuff) than get a repair man out at £100+ (just for the call out).

I had 2 Yamaha sound bars, great sound but both conveniently 'died' just when the warranty expired!

Bought a Sony for the lounge,was a mistake,should have bought another Samsung.
Just not logical to use.

The interface....and the remote control are the most important parts of a TV for me. I'd happily forgo snazzy new features for a sensible, logical layout.

Sound bar.
My brain would usually default to mainstream TV brands such as Samsung, Sony, LG, Panasonic, Sharp, Philips etc.
I know.......now!

Superglue on the remote buttons?
Tipped it onto the floor ,stuck stickers onto it then hacked them off with a knife!
Hiding the remote is a favourite pastime,I only want the remote to turn it off!

Samsung TVs can be app controlled - solved the problem of remotes being hidden. Panasonic probably has a similar feature.
I found the hotel setting on mine it limits the volume.

An old friend of mine made his living repairing TVs. He told me that LG’s were awful, as he made nothing out of them.
On his advice, I bought an LG (from Richer Sounds) about 10 years ago and it’s been faultless. Obviously, being male, I hanker after a bigger/newer/fancier one now, but keep having to tell myself that there’s really nothing wrong with the one we’ve got. Apparently, Mrs NeilO informs me, I start on every Christmas....

About 10 years ago When we were shopping for a living room telly we were told there was only one screen maker for 3 of the main brands so it was more the software that differed, iirc LG, Samsung one other may have been toshiba or hitachi, don’t know if that’s still the case.

You'd think with the technology that we have got now someone would invent a telly with a button on it to make the remote bleep so you can find out which armchair it has hidden in, or perhaps somebody does?
