My brand new Samsung boots to pc hdmi in like 5 seconds be default, and is a very smart tv.
Smart TVs arent bad because they're smart. They're bad because people buy cheap ones on black Friday.
Think you missed the point of the thread.
SmartTvs aren't bad. That is correct. However if I don't get an android TV I am stuck with the apps the manufacturer chooses. Which does not include xstream, nexttube or a Firefox. So that is a big minus for me. Then there are other issues that begin at "not defaulting to an hdmi input" and end at "ads that are shown in the menu".
So I rather don't have any of that.
Your smart tv is not very smart, but apparently more so than you are.
