    After reset i was given the 2 options of home or store. BTW Store did not have a setting to disable standby LED, so I reset again with Home, and lucky I did because that has slightly more settings, including that one.

    You have full control of picture settings, yes. Also picture profiles (Movie, Vivid etc). Full color brightness contrast adjustment. HDR detection.

    I had no Ethernet connected and never connected to wifi. There is no Roku OS. It’s a TCL OS with fewer settings. I could custom name the inputs and I personally made my HTPC inlut be startup. The main menu does have a static Roku Ad in Home mode. When starting instead on an input, input can be changed with the side drawer flyout menu, so I never have to see that main menu ad (not that it’s intrusive, there’s not really enough menu items to require a full screen anyway).

    Nothing is bugging me to connect or do anything, and I couldn’t be happier. Wish I knew about this sooner.

      If you haven’t done so yet, you should set the clear motion/action smoothing setting to custom with de-judder and de-blur set to 0, and turn off the noise reduction stuff.

      The blur and AI generated look those features cause on their default settings is even worse than home screen ads for me.

        So I have Denoise settings, I will disable per your recc.

        But I don’t have motion/blur (I don’t remember having it in the Roku OS either so my 6.5yo TV may just not have had that)

        I have a Game Mode that seems to increase response time at the cost of picture quality, which I have disabled.
