Please if plan to use 1080P including a Blu-Ray player or any device dont make mistake I did buying this trash. Samsung is a horrible company that imposes such bad copy protection via HDCP it makes the TV unable to achieve 1080P. The USB has copy protection that forces to register to even watch stuff from it in 1080P... It refuses to detect a Blu-Ray player properly making it into 720, blanking the screen, refusing to play anything back... I called support wasted about 10 days of lost sleep by being so upset... They had me waste more time downloading a "firmware" update that refused to work... The USB keeps claiming its not detecting or is there, I tried every possible way even using multiple USB sticks... None of them detect the software to even update the product at all... I doubt Amazon will publish this since they are hiding the fact these HDCP copy protections only shaft legal users... I have all bought legal Blu-Rays finally got a player after years of putting it off... I just wanted to watch them in peace, yet I cant see anything at all much less 1080P. I will have to resort to going full pirate, streaming from pirate sites, burning/copying stuff from them to even watch anything... I can try hooking it up via the component video which shouldnt have the copy protection that only hurts legal users... AS long as products are made using HDCP it will be pointless to invest any money in the trash. They dont work, it causes conflicts for people who are not doing anything illegal only... It has not stopped 1 pirate, if anything its made the pirated copies or streams the only to work... I had no problem using a blu-ray player with LG or even the Walmart bought Sceptre or Spectre whatever name they are... Ive really given up at this point, I thought of killing myself I was so upset or other people... If Samsung was a decent company they would send me a TV that works... They are known for their smart TVS spying on people, yet they cant manage to play a Blu-Ray or display anything in 1080P??? I just wanted a simple TV to watch Blu-Rays/DVDs not stream or even do anything... I dont have anything going for me in life... I have a C5-C7 neck fusion, two plastic spacers in my neck w/ titanium teeth... Yet Im being forced to do all this stuff I cant manage for a TV that is setup to not work legally?? I started on 300 baud modems, Ive never been so disgusted in my life... Samsung products are the worst, they used to be a good company but that is then this is now. I recall having an issue w/ a Samsung monitors where it wouldnt give me a picture having issue detecting the proper video since its got some cheap built in plastic switch... That should have kept me away for good, my mom got a Samsung for Mothers Day or Birthday so figured it would be fine... I waited so long to finally get HDTV, Blu-Ray, was all excited only to be totally devastated. There is something wrong in the world where copy protection is only hindering the people legally using the products. Everybody laughs at me for being honest, not turning to all these pirate sites... Thinking I can legally by the Blu-rays I want to show support for the Anime or other things I enjoy... Yet a Samsung TV or any using HDCP among other idiotic stuff is only hindering anybody trying to be decent. When I smash this junk in the street Ill be replacing it with another TV that wont work because of HDCP BS... Im going to try hooking it up via the component cables which will only give me 1080i not the 1080P I paid for... This is a Scam TV that will not generate the 1080P only 1080i if it displays any picture at all. Lost over 5 hours talking to tech people from all across LG to Samsung. They dont care about the people or their product, surely not my life or those lives of any who use them... Ive seen stories of people all losing TVS from automatic updates Samsung has done, my cable boxes are Samsung giving me many issues too... Please just listen to me about this one topic... Dont Buy Anything Samsung, even a cell phone I had was Samsung Rugby which dont work well if at all... Im so devastated by this, Ive just given up, I never supporting pirates until I finally have seen they are in the right. You cant properly buy/watch anything legally without having some sorta conflict happen... They can even decide to restrict the resolution you see movies in by some choice at any moment regardless of what you do. Laws need to change to ban HDCP or any forms of copy protection as they only hurt the consumer not any pirate in the least. Even the Cable only works since its mostly broadcast in 1080i or below otherwise it wouldnt give me a picture either. I made the mistake of buying this TV from Amazon, otherwise maybe it would have somebody fix or support it. Samsung refused to do the right thing in fixing the TV or sending me one that worked... AS the TV never worked properly, I just didnt know it, many others are getting scammed just like me. I wonder if my moms TV even works since she has never tried using Roku or anything broadcast in 1080P. I didnt know about all this stuff until recently, I thought you could legally buy/use stuff in USA... Yet I see this country is worse than China where their products actually display 1080P or even 4K without this BS... I suggest giving LG a try over Samsung, my first 1080 TV in any form was a LG... It managed to work fine with the same Blu-Ray player this trash Samsung TV wont play... It wont even display the picture in 720 even though it converts the Blu-Ray to that even when empty without a disc in it... Anything I try to play it will work fine except not having any picture or sound :). Samsung TVs are over priced, they are not worth anything, basically filled with copy protection to point its unusable to anybody... Even the tech on the phone admits he had no idea what to do, that nobody has ever had such issues as me :). Imagine buying a TV thinking will be able to use it with a Blu-Ray player to see stuff in HD at 1080P... That is just totally insane, I cant even buy a HDTV that will legally display 1080P because they have faulty buggy trash HDCP.
