What is smart about a smart DVD player?
What is wifi about a DVD player with Wifi?
My friend bought a smart tv, and she says the remote has a keyboard in it, and it's like a computer. She can iiuc navigate to any webpage and play any video she finds there.
The descriptions of smart dvd players don't sound like anything that good.
The smart DVD with Wif sounded like just what I needed*** until I read descriptions, reviews, and thought about it some more. Now I have big doubts.
I can't find pictures of the remotes, and at the store they're probably hidden? Do they have alphanumeric keyboards?
If they only play Netflix and a couple other sources like that, it's of no use to me. It seems to me my brother's big almost new tv had one screen that mentioned only Netflix. and he could use it for Netflix, using only the remote. But there was no keyboard, and I assume, no web browser in it.
If I can't go straight from the DVD to the net to get what I want, could I use the DVD's WiFi to receive what is playing on my computer. amd watch that on the TV? I normally don't care about picture quality but would it be less? I normally don't care about audio quality, but the tinnitus in my ear doubled recently, (and when I watch Leave it to Beaver, recorded at the lowest quality, he speaks so fast sometimes I can't understand him. Going to the highest quality, I couldnt tell if that helped.)
***I can't use a smart TV, because afaict, none have outputs except for external speakers. I have a network of TVs throughout my house (that I've told you about in the past. I use Powermid to control the DVD.) and they all must show the same thing, so if I move to another room, I can turn off one tv and turn on the other. They get their output from the DVDR with digital tuner through an RF modulator. Or from the VCR that is installed parallel to the DVDR. I would plug the DVD with Wifi in parallel to those two, and be able to watch everything it will receive in any room that has a tv.Thanks a lot.
