Off Topic TV set-up for relaxing viewing

Ah sweet
Crack on

 

So my TV set up is pretty bangin', like - 46 inch wall mounted LG flat screen, Led lights on the back on the screen to illuminate the walls, coupled with 3 Hui lights set up around it, and various disco lights in the lounge. Turns my lounge into some kick ass cinema type place.

I really hate normal TV, and only watch films, Netflix, Prime and Disney+.

 

I find the most relaxing TV set up is one where there is no possibility of accidentally turning on Sky Sports, BT Sport or Match of the Day and catching a glimpse of Steve Bruce's Newcastle.

 

55" Samsung with soundbar in the living room with an amazon firecube hooked up to it for cinemahd app and me IPTV for the footy/movies etc. Works like a dream. Had the whole house rewired a few years back and bought a reel of cat5e cable and got the lads to pull it all through the house for me at the same time and put rj45 faceplates in every room round the house....makes a hell of a difference nowadays with so many things connected to the internet. Everything that can be is wired with only ipads and phones connecting wirelessly!

Normally watch a combination of Netflix, Prime and IPTV. Got Virgin Media (tivo box) but only so I have a box so the Mrs can record Eastenders and **** on....and cos it's cheaper to have a bundle than just broadband with them ****ers...I hate the fact that they have the monopoly on the fibre broadband infrastructure and their ****ing call centre in Manilla is an absolute shambles (when you can manage to get through to them that is).

I have a 5 year old 50" sony in the bedroom which has android OS so thankfully most of the apps i have to install on me firecube downstairs can be installed direct on to the TV upstairs.

LED lights around the backs of all the tv's in the house, and my monitor in my office just for a bit of mood lighting....it actually does help with eye strain so if you haven't tried it I thoroughly recommend it !!

 

I'll send you a pic of Trev from the Earl meeting last time.....

 

Aye a quick 'panic ****' before the wife comes up to bed.

 

The winner!

 

A 'panic ****'? This needs explaining! Not too much info mind.

 

Brings back memories...

 

Sounds like a cheap brothel!
How much per ride?

 

Converted my garage into a home theatre/office about 10 years ago.
50 inch panny plasma, onkyo tx nr515, jamo surround sound with sub, upgraded the fronts to mordaunt shorts a few years back. 4k firestick with Netflix, amazon prime and iptv for the sport. Anything I can't get from that I'll download from tpb on my win 10 mini pc sat next to the receiver. Got a zgemma h2s sat box with a 1tb hdd for the rare occasion I watch normal telly.
Also got a couple of mordaunt shorts in the kitchen wired to the onkyo.
Got a couple of wall mounted 25inch dell's hooked up to a full size silent win 10 pc for office work with a Philips lamp under the desk giving whatever shade of ambient light when watching the telly.
Total tellys in the house = 6, all hooked up to a hard wired firestick via homeplugs.
For WiFi I've got an upgraded router, distribution box and one of these at the top of my stairs https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B016XYQ3WK/?tag=not606-21

Its great, covers the whole house and garden with ease.

Anyone wants iptv the one I have at the mo is superb, sport only for 30 quid a year or 55 for the lot including movies give me a shout.

 

You were supposed to turn it into a gym you lazy ****

 

Converted my 8x12 shed into a gym.

 

I’ve got a 65” tv on the wall, which due to the size was an absolute bastard getting on the wall. Have a floating shelf under the tv with a Samsung soundbar on it. Under that I have a wide white tv unit with blue glass lights on either side. I’ve got one of those dimming lightbulbs where you can change the colour etc in the living room too. ****ing great stuff, I love it. Cost a bit like.

 

It would've been easier going to the pictures once a week by the sound of it

 

Do you have a live, laugh, love sign to go with it all?

 

So does this mean you can watch BBC AND films or just BBC?

 

Nah mate, chucked that last November. Grew tiresome of it.
