I’m only getting HD on my tv as well which surprises me.

Does the KS8000 support SkyQ in HDR from the 2TB SkyQ Box? AIUI, Sky started HDR for some UHD Nature programme downloads a couple of days ago but only with the V2 or V3 SkyQ boxes.
Unfortunately I have a SkyQ V1 box but there would be no point in me trying to get it changed if the KS8000 won't support the HLG HDR over HDMI. ISTR that the TV does after a FW upgrade last year but I'm not sure. Is there anyone with SkyQ V2 or V3 and a KS8000 that could comment please?
Most Welcome,
TBH I think the KS8000 is such a good TV that there is little point in upgrading until Micro LED is properly on the market
Disney Plus app not working on some 2016 Samsung smart TVsMorning All,
Has anybody else lost Disney +, it was working but now I get an error message to the effect, "Disney + isn't currently working on 2016 Samsung TVs and they are working with the manufacturer to resolve the issue"
Thanks,

Once you click on it wait for it to open then OK it it will go but you may get another ad in it's place temporarily sometimes I get one and sometimes not, as for the rest if you highlight (hover over) one and press down it will give you the option to remove it.Now have a long list of apps at the bottom of my 55KS8000 TV screen, many never been used.
How do I delete the apps not required?
Especially want to delete the Samsung TV Plus app as I keep getting scripts coming up on the top of the screen 'demanding' I view Samsung's changed terms and conditions. Very annoying.
Ta, will give it a go once the missus is no longer watching the telly.Once you click on it wait for it to open then OK it it will go but you may get another ad in it's place temporarily sometimes I get one and sometimes not, as for the rest if you highlight (hover over) one and press down it will give you the option to remove it.

Hi,I've got an intermittent problem with my KS8000 display. See photos. It has only happened about half a dozen times in the past 2 months since it first started. Happens when the TV comes out of standby but clears itself after 5 - 10 minutes. When the fault occurs, if I switch to a couple of test jpg images I have on a USB stick in the TV back panel the fault is still there. That seems to rule out external sources, HDMI cables and/or the One Connect box as the problem.
Any thoughts on what it is and a fix?View attachment 1326694View attachment 1326696
Hi,
If you have the extended warranty then report it ASAP, whilst it's intermittent right now it probably won't stay that way.
Best wishes,

Had something similar on my last Samsung TV. Got absolutely nowhere with Samsung. White vertical stripe on the right hand side of the screen. All I got was "it isn't a fault with the TV." Gave up in the end and gave it away. Got another Samsung from John Lewis with a five year guarantee. This one has been OK, apart from intermittent recording to a hard disc. The Samsung Owners Forum, is full of complaints above the same recording problem. Samsung aren't bothered one bit. Only bought another Samsung for the built in Freesat tuner. Freeview reception around here is patchy.Hi,

How can Samsung screw up something so simple? My TV has two LNB inputs, so I assumed you could watch one channel and record another at the same time.Had the same issue a few years ago when trying to use the onboard guide with an external disk to make a DVR. Only worked if TV was on!
In the end bought a Humax Freesat DVR from eBay for less that £100. It's old, large and slow - but it works like a charm.
