“can this be used as a regular tv? can I simply plug in the cable cord, attach cord to a DVD player w/o using and setting up all the other computer-like features? If so, does it still do a lot of updating, etc.? While this TV updates, does this delay being able to watch regular TV? (I'm not a techno-savvy person.) Thanks. I had this TV delivered, haven't even taken it out of the box, but read the entire manual and decided it seemed way too complicated.”

Honestly, I'm not techno savvy but I handled it fine. I followed the TV onscreen directions. I did not set up the computer features but did set up the updates. I am very happy with it!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hook up cable or antenna, plug it in. Turn on and it will ask you questions. Took me 30 mins. To learn how to navigate. It will update at the beginning, not every time you use it. We tried a DVD player with USB hookup and it didn't work. You need a dvi cable.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The TV only did an update when first plugged in. Other than that it was flawless. Depending on the brand of DVD player and age, youmight haveto. But my new Samsung Blue Ray. when turned on and simply hooked up does all the channel changing and set up for me. it was quite cool. turn on the BR. tv came on by itself and tuned straight to the BR without any inputs from me.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You can plug it in and start watching after the initial update. My DVD is plugged into HDMI. It is not really complicated to use all the nice features though.
