It's important to recognize this is not a technical problem but rather a policy / social / conceptual problem. Lot's of other modern hardware manufactures continue to update feature sets long after...

Probably right, but then I already gave up on net tv on my insanely great Philips TV. From a hardware perspective the TV is a dream. Seems like I bought it a year ago, but every day I use it I...

Is there a rational explanation for this not being available via the built in software update feature? All the other software on all my other computers is updated without the help of a usb stick.

You seem very attached and committed to Philips. At the same time you don't seem to be a Philips employee or moderator of this forum. I previously thought such extreme dedication was only exhibited...

And I thought only Apple had fanboys. Live and learn.

That's an unfortunate situation. Seems that would make the integrated update service pointless.

Again, if Philips wanted newer firmware than version 140.33 installed on my TV, then they wouldn't tell me my software is up to date when I use the check for updates feature on the TV. Perhaps...

When I try to update my firmware, my TV tells me that it's firmware (140.33) is up to date. Perhaps you have some advice about how to troubleshoot/diagnose that problem. Unless of course version...

And why not? Should we all call Philips directly to get *special* tips? Perhaps Philips misunderstands the point of a forum? The point being that we don't all have to call Philips directly to get...

Tried again later. Got same feedback. According to the server status page, the NetTV service portal is up. Are there any steps an end user can take to troubleshoot/diagnose the problem? I tried...

When you say "solved" do you mean that the YouTube app now saves your login info, and you don't have to re-enter it every time you want to watch YouTube clips after restarting the TV?

The thing is, Net TV is a portal. The "apps" run in the portal. It is extremely likely that the Philips portal is responsible for storing credential info of Philips customers which are then used to...

I'd love to hear a response from Philips to this question, since they sold me the TV and they run the Net TV portal I connect to when I start Net TV.

Thanks, that worked, but I don't think I'll do it again, since it deletes more than the youtube 'settings'.

I don't see this option. Can you provide more verbose instructions on how to clear Net TV memory? Or maybe a pointer to an online help resource?

The OP doesn't mention the inability to type the symbols.


I thin the OP means that logging into the service doesn't work, and attributes this to the fact that his password, which he is able to...

Hi Eddy,

Thanks for the response. I gave up on that feature too. I have an alternative that 'just works' (AppleTV). Although, I'd really rather that Net TV solution worked. Maybe it will get...

I found it today but I had to switch the app gallery from Germany to Poland first.

Hi Mark,

It seems I'm not being clear enough. This has nothing to do with what I do on the YouTube website, outside of Net TV. Net TV is running on my Philips TV. I go to Net TV, then to the...

Me too! But I'm not holding my breath, since LoveFilm seems to LoveSony right now.

Aside: I've never understood the logic of making a small market offering (e.g. dubbed videos on demand with no...

I've added the device type and serial number to my profile: 40PFL9705K (VN1B1038007781)

I've already tried to update the software on the TV, and it reported back that my software is up to date.

Hi Mark, I do have a YouTube account. I do check the options to have my login details saved. It hasn't worked for me. Every time I want to access the YouTube app, I have to re-enter the info. Any...

It seems like this is supposed to be an option, but it hasn't worked for me. I have to re-enter my login info each time. Makes the app useless for me. On a related note, I see where I can add a...
