re: Asking all the Hulu subscribers for answers

King George,
You mentioned better performance on plug in devices than the app on Smart TV. Can you elaborate? Reason I’m asking is we use Hulu through our Samsung TV app. Sometimes it is blurry or hazy. I’ve just blamed it on our Starlink but now wondering if using a plug in would solve this issue.

Can confirm. When you use the app through the TV, you're limited to whatever RAM Samsung allocated for Smart TV use. It's also probably the cheapest processor they could source to run Prime, Netflix, etc.
You will get better performance out of a three year old Roku stick than you will out of of a 1 year old smart TV. I've observed the difference between sticks, Roku Ultra, and Roku TVs, and it is real. Channel loading, firing up content, all of it was much faster on a years old Ultra than it was on the sticks (five years worth of vintages), and the smart TV versions were the worst in terms of speed. Not to mention the limited RAM in TVs mean it's offloading apps to save space.
It's $35 to test the theory. Try it out.
