I have a LOT of DVD movies and was considering buying an older mult-disc player (maybe Sony) so that I could watch these. In looking around the internet it seems like now there and methods of storing movies on a server (remote or in-home?) and being able to watch the movies on any TV in the...

You are absolutely correct! I bought this with a Chase card and, when I checked with them, they do cover it for an extended period! They even had me register it with them and were SUPER nice. Thanks for the tip!!!

The TCL repair person came today and replaced the power board and the TV was up and running. It took her less than 15 minutes. She made sure it was working and took pictures. I asked her if this was common and she said, with TCL, it is very common. She said it's usually the power board...

Sorry about that. I am getting nothing. No Audio, nothing on the screen, no power light. It's dead. No real symptoms to relay. But, here's all the steps I've tried with BestBuy and TCL recommendations, along with some I found online. 1. Tried a new power cord 2. Tried unplugging, waiting...

I agree about Sony. There was a time when I thought there products were the best but, as you, was disappointed repeatedly over the years. I'd bought some Panasonic things that were better but my wife (for some un-kown reason) thinks Samsung it king and always wants those TV's. I had actually...

I think I've got to get a Costco card. My in-laws got the new TCL replacement TV there and our daughter save a LOT on a set of Michelin tires for her van there as well -- and got lots of freebies with the tire buy (rotation, etc.). Must be a good place. I'll check it out next weekend -- hope...

Thanks for the response! It's still under warranty so, hopefully, TCL will get it all fixed / replaced. Keeping my fingers crossed. I had to replace a board in a Samsung TV once and I was scared to death doing it but was successful. Guess if I have to do surgery I will .. but hoping not...

Thank you for your response! I hope the Samsung is better too. Let me know if you're aware of some go-to brands. We don't buy TV's too often.

No, I won't. And thank you for your response! Here's what the TCL folks sent me to regarding the situation (via email): We're sorry to hear that your TV stopped working and we understand your interest in claiming the warranty. To better understand the issue, can you please tell us exactly...

Thank you very much for your response! I found a site (after reading your answer) for helping to locate service centers. It's at https://www.service-center-locator.com/tcl/tcl-service-center.htm. I live not too far from Indianapolis, IN and luckily there are choices nearby. Hopefully I'll...

Last November we were buying my wife's folks (in their 90's) a new television. My wife went to Best Buy to get a 65" Samsung and the guy there said we should get a TCL 65R625 65" Class 6 Series LED 4K UHD Smart Roku TV instead. I checked here on the forum and the general consensus of...

I think I may have solved the speaker dilemma. I found a device on the web for people with hearing issues. You can see it at I also found a used one on eBay for $32 and got it for a trial. I noticed that the connection is via a 3.5mm jack from the TV to RCA jacks to the unit. Even though...

I forgot to mention that my wife’s parents are elderly and not really tech savvy. If you have recommendations we are mostly after a big screen for ease of viewing, a good picture and ability to hook up sound for near them (remote speakers).

Thank you for your reply. Is this one good? If not, should we consider another brand? Really appreciate your help! https://www.bestbuy.com/site/searchpage.jsp?id=pcat17071&st=Tcl+65%22

Thank you for the warning!!! Actually it’s still in the box so I can take it back. Would you have any suggestions we could get? We’d like to get some speakers near them. Are there any products you’d know that could be a fit? Look forward to hearing from you!

We bought a SB36512-F6 Vizio sound bar at BestBuy for $299. We got it for my wife’s parents who are elderly and hard of hearing. The salesman recommended it due to it having rear speakers. He said the rear speakers could be put nearer to where my father-in-law sits and would be better for...

My wife went to Best Buy to get her parents a new TV. She was thinking of a 65” Samsung. The guy at the store said thaT TCL was a much better brand and suggested that instead. Let me know if you have any knowledge of this brand and if they are better.

We have a Yamaha YAS-207BL sounbar / subwoofer in our living room. It's connected to our Samsung Smart TV with an optical connector. We got this last year after bunches of research and it seems a great unit. I am wondering, however, if we should use HDMI to hook it up verus optical? At...
