Smartest Tricks with a Smart TV
An average human being uses his/her smart TV just to catch up with their favorite shows. Not just this, smart TVs are sometimes used to play games as well by ardent gamers, using gaming consoles. However, there is much more to your smart TV than you can think of. While I purchased a Vizio smart TV with Mediatek chipset, I was searching for some tricks which would make my smart TV experience better.
And after a lot of research, here I have found some really good tricks to make the smart TV a much better object than just watching Netflix and playing games via gaming consoles. Here are some of these that you should really know:
Play Games via Chromecast:
Chromecast is just a handy option for smartphones and smart TV that helps them connect with each other wirelessly. And if you are a gamer, you would really like to watch and operate the action on the giant TV screen rather than your smartphone.
But do you not have a gaming console? Do not worry because the Chromecast feature would be there to your rescue. You can install all kinds of games on your smartphone and then telecast them to your TV by using the Chromecast feature. Of course, the action and the controls would be bigger and you get a much better experience.
Operate it via Smartphones:
Smart TVs do not really rely on their remotes for the operation of the devices. In fact, even if you lose the remote and are getting a new one in some time, you do not have to stop watching the TV. There are innumerable smart TV remote apps that you can download to operate your smart TV. While the smartphones and smart TVs both have some of the most amazing chipsets like mediatek, you would face absolutely no issues.
Audio and Video on Different Devices:
Sounds strange? Well, things have turned really convenient for those who would like to watch late-night TV shows without even disturbing people with the TV sound. If you have a smart TV, you can install various Apps like TUNITY that connect the audio of your smartphone to your TV.
With this, the action and the graphics remain on your TV, while the audio is played only on your smartphone. Interesting?
Well, this feature is made for those who wish to see live TV all night without a headphone but without even disturbing people in the house due to TV noise.
Check the Settings for Best Action:
Nowadays, you can get gorgeous 8K TVs that have miraculous picture quality and graphics. However, is your 8K TV delivering only ordinary picture quality? Well, as a learned human being, you ought to check the settings of your smart TV and set it to the kind of view you desire.
All these hi-fi smart TVs do not come set at their best picture and audio quality according to your needs. So instead of using it just-as out of the box, check the settings for the audio and the video and choose the ones you desire in your smart TV.
Control it Through Consoles:
There are some smart TVs that can also support the use of Xbox and PS4 controllers as a TV controller. Though this is not a feature that is a part of most smart TVs, it is found in a lot of Android TVs. For better assistance, you can check your TV’s specs to see if it supports console controllers.
Just go to the settings and select “Add Accessory”, the TV will scan for supported Bluetooth accessories, allowing you to select your controllers for use. And with this, you can control your smart TV as well.
These are some really interesting hacks about smart TVs that I found over the internet and brought for you to try. Well, they are not smart TVs and smartphones just for namesake. In fact, many of the features of these devices go undiscovered by human beings. Do try these out and do mention your experiences in the comment section.
