Pirate Netflix (discuss.tchncs.de)

With the recent password sharing crackdown, I decided to ditch my Netflix subscription and try piracy. What I miss about Netflix is scrolling through content and finding something to watch. With piracy I need to know exactly what I am looking for.

So I am wondering if it's possible to have a Netflix like GUI but powered by piracy? And as this is the pirate world, it shows shows and movies not just from Netflix but also from the other streaming services? And finally it is available on TVs ( Samsung tizen in my case). Something like this would be the best case scenario. Wondering if someone has a similar setup?

Yeah, problem is if you want a modern TV, you don't have a choice. You either get a smart TV or suffer

just never connect your smart tv to the internet

I think you can jailbreak lots of them, although I've never tried

Just don't enable any network connections, and it's just a big monitor.

I bought second-hand and got a wicked deal (cause they thought the audio was gone, but for me it a quick fix). :)

What was the problem and how did you fix

There was no sound at all, and when I went to look at the tv before buying it, they turned it on to show zero pixel loss but didn't have the volumn on. And I didn't push it.

Got home, no sound, so searched the model and found the answer ... a minor setting adjustment. I was super happy about that.

A win for me. \O/

Amazing. I thought you had to open it up and replace a damaged component.

I thought I'd have to as well. Just got lucky.
