Problem is getting an 55+" Screen with an OLED panel and support for HDR in a non-smart package
It's not smart if you don't connect it to the internet
But it will try to start into a crippled user interface ever so often.
My Sony just goes straight to the HDMI that turned it on via CEC
I haven seen my LG OLED’s smart OS for years.
There are commercial displays that don't have any of the bullshit. But you'll have to jump through some extra hoops for the sound.
I have a dedicated sound system anyway
But if your display has no digital output, you may need to plug it into the analog output of the computer you're using to drive the display. That's not optimal.
No, I just plug the video input into my AV-Receiver and let it split it up, and then an HDMI cable from the receiver to the TVs input
