Hello Steve, thank you for this video.

Hi, thanks for posting this video. I have a frame TV that is just a couple years old, but the smart things app doesn’t seem to recognize it anymore. Is it possible they’ve dropped support for the un65ls03n? How can I upload pictures otherwise? Appreciate any suggestions.

Hello Steve I got a question outside the scope of this video. I have a Samsung series 6 tv, it worked very well when its hook to the cable box Spectrum, lately it was loosing the connection to the internet I workout that problem some how. I replaced the mode and router on advised from Spectrum it was over 5 years old. I replaced the ethernet cable that connects the TV and router. The connection to the internet got worst, I replaced the cable that connects the routers to the TV, it did not resolve the problem, I called Samsung they got me entering the IP address manually, it worked for about a week. My Samsung remote control when bad, i bought a generic remote control GE, I was able to connect to the internet for about two weeks then the problem retuned, called Samsung, they told me to use the KZbin apps and Netflix apps, I did it for about a week now the TV is not able to connect to the internet not matter what I do. I can not connect it via wifi because the keypad does not show for the password. I try downloading the apps SmartThing I can't find the TV, I just got the basic apps, do I need to buy the full apps? Thanks

You you did a factory reset on the TV?

@@TechSteve yes I had tech support on the line, I need to add the TV MAC address to the router or make the router not filter the MAC address.

[@kevinboone2178]

I recently bought a 65" Samsung Series 7 Smart TV. The picture quality is close to QLED levels, but there are notable quirks: 1. You can't easily adjust color and tint (C/T), for example, as those functions aren't readily available on the remote control (RC), and no menu button exists. Substituted is a tiny "Settings" (S) button at the bottom-left of the RC. Using S is needlessly complex because one has to go through hoops to adjust (C/T, etc.), as one has to choose what kind of picture he wants first, "Dynamic," for one, which can prevent you from even using the (C/T) controls on videos from your File Explorer download folder/s. I contacted Samsung to get this resolved. It wasn't, even after 3 hours on the phone with one of their technicians who remotely accessed my TV. If you know how one can ALWAYS access C/T, etc., and easily, please leave a comment -- or demonstrate how in another video. THANKS, Steve.
