Just purchased Samsung 65 inch 7100. How do I stop the smart hub ribbon from appearing on bottom of screen when I first turn the TV on? Thanks.

You didn't tell a few things.
1. The full model number.
2. If you were OK with losing Smart Hub and turning it into a HDTV.

Why would I want to lose Smart Hub? I'm just wondering if there is a way to stop the ribbon appearing on the bottom everytime I turn it on. Thanks.
Read http://www.samsungadhub.com/pr/ourCapability/smartTVAd.do for example, there's more about Samsung and using this to push advertising.
Again, this area isn't about what you want. Some folk only learn about it later.
Bob
All I am asking is if anyone knows how to stop the ribbon? I'm not debating advertising
In the USA call 1800SAMSUNG to ask and get an answer in minutes.
I found out myself how to do it the settings. Really guys in the future if you don't know or have any useful advice don't respond. Thanks
I don't mind checking the docs and if Samsung won't document this, it's going to be rough going.
The support here is a toll free number and for items like this is pretty good. I'd use that.

Be polite when help is offered. It may not be what you want, but it's better than getting a rep and being ignored.
I was not trying to be rude. I was referring to some replies that had absolutely nothing to do with what I was looking for help with. I do agree that any info is good info. My apologies to anyone I offended.
