A:AnswerI have not placed this tv outside. However, when the blinds are up, the sun can cast a glare making it difficult to see the picture. It looks best in a dark lit setting. I hope this helps.
A:AnswerYes, the screen will slightly overlap by about an inch on either side of the dresser, but the feet which support the display are just over 38" apart. I resized and finished an oak stair tread from Lowe's to fit on top of a 36" dresser, because the 3-foot dresser didn't have sufficient length to properly support the 50" set. Now the add-on oak base looks as if it was made for the Vizio M501-G1. You're in good shape with a 42" dresser already, if you choose to purchase this beautiful Quantum dot set.
A:AnswerWell right not I'm using a 2TB hard drive with it so I guess it will do a little better than 2-4GB. That is why I ask about a hard drive not a memory stick.
A:AnswerBy "accessing", I'm guessing you mean to see your media files, videos, etc. that are stored on your NAS. All NAS are different and there is a USB connection on the TV so verifying that will allow a direct access is a big unknown. However, for my NAS, I use a ROKU streaming device along with this TV; I added the app that both my NAS and Roku can add and it works fine with streaming and viewing. I'm unsure of apps that you can add using Smartcast to match your NAS, if you don't have a ROKU. My NAS is a QNAP model and works with several different apps.
A:AnswerPluto Tv. They're pretty decent they have some provided by big networks such as MTV, Comedy Central, Nick, etc. But they run different episodes of the same show. I think FS Sports was also on there.
A:AnswerThis is a late reply but I believe questions like these are better handled through phonecall or asking in store! You can also choose the shipping speed at checkout and more than likely get one day shipping!
A:AnswerI have a big dog, too. I set the tv up high on a flat surface. The legs are not very long, but they are sturdy. However, I would probably choose to mount it on the wall with bouncing fur babies.
