I bought this tv set with hope to see MKV movies through USB as it confirmed on the manual attached.
using my language ( hebrew ) I can see the subtitles in hebrew, but its appears from left to right (miror subtitles)
is any one can help how can I change the reading sides ??

First, MKV is not an encoding.

It's a container or wrapper so your mileage will vary.

If you don't like the substitles the fast cure is to use some PC or burn them into the video with HARDSUB.

PS. These are TVs. Dumb things.

Gday,
Heard on the forum that there is a way to upgrade or to update the hardware, or to update drivers.
is it possible ?? through USB connection ??

I'm going to write no.

This is not a PC so any update would be from its maker and well, that would only add what they think would help sales or fix a bug.

Are you meeting folk that think these smart TVs are going to get upgrades? I am and boy are they in for a shock.
