Enjoy navigating through your TV's UI every time you power up just to select the HDMI input!
Every smart TV I have owned will automatically select the most recent HDMI input when turned back on.
Mine updated recently (Vizio) and now ALWAYS chooses "smart cast" upon reboot. And I have to wait for it to complete, painfully, slowly, load so I can switch to HDMI.
If the HDMI channel doesn't have anything it gives me 5 seconds before it switches to smart cast as well. Which is a huge pita
Did you connect it to the internet on purpose?
We where using it as a smart TV and then stopped. It's not connected anymore
Still a preferred tradeoff for the convenience
Our main TV is what I use for my monitor and it's great. Everything all in one place. It's all voice activated though so that helps with switching inputs when needed. I just tell it to switch to PC and everything is ready to go 🤷♀️. I do think you might be being a little dramatic about changing the input. It takes like one second. Especially if you had to grab the remote to turn on the TV anyway it's an extra button or two lol
And that's where you lose all credibility.
Oh no! Anyway.
