Hello All, I may have an inexpensive solution to your problem. I had the same problem with my TV as well. It would shutoff by itself about an hour after it was turned on. The when I would turn it on again it would shut off after 5 to 10 minutes. Finally I got fed up. I knew it was not my bulb because the picture still looks good. I did here a buzzing if I would turn the TV on right away after it would shut off. That was do to the bulb recharging itself. I noticed the TV was extremely hot in the back. So automatically I thought it was the cooling of the set. All post I read keep saying the TV would last about 2 years to a year after a service. Which would be right because (most) service repair clean out the units before installing new parts. What I did was I opened unplugged the TV from the wall and opened unscrewed the back panel door. I used my Air compresser and blew out all the dust inside. ( A can of compressed air should do the job if you do not have a compressor) I removed the bulb and blew out the dust on the bulb as well. I did not remove the bulb from the housing unit. After I dusted the bulb and housing unit I reinstalled it. I keep my home clean but you should have see all the dust that came out. The dust covering the components overheat the unit which causes it to shutdown. It has been about 2 weeks and have not experienced any problems since. All I can say is give this a try and maybe this will work for you. This will only cost you about 10 dollars and 30 minutes of your time. This is better that Hundreds of Dollar in repair.

To select a proper universal remote control, you should know about the number of digits to its set-up codes. There are 3 digit, 4 digit, 5 digit, 2 digit and even single digit codes, to some brand devices. After confirming this, check the sites linked here. Both the sites have set-up code list and set-up procedure to many popular brand remote controls. Check which brand remote control has set-up code/s to your device brand, and buy that one according to availability. Brand name of the remote control isn't a matter, but it should have set-up codes in its code list, to the device brand you have. Please note: Every new universal remote control will have set-up code list, and set-up procedure along with its pack. Never accept a remote control, that hasn't both of this. For more details about the set-up codes, visit the site http://electrohelponline.blogspot.com/ Check this site too. http://remotesearch.blogspot.com/ Universal remote controls are available at most of the electronic spare part selling shops. Type in the "brand name" of your device, in the search box [at the top right] of the display window to get gathered all the related posts to this brand devices. It will make surf easy.

Buried in the menus should be a prompt for variable or fixed volume control. Consult your user manual that came with the set. If this does not work there may be a fault with the uPC or the factory level firmware. Only and authorized service rep would have the setup to verify this and correct it, if this is the case.

First of all, this TV must have connectivity to a network (wireless or wired), and be capable of receiving NetFlix. You can get a copy of the manual from here: http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/HL-P5663W The manual does not discuss NetFlix, nor any Smart TV capabilities. You may have to use an external device such as a Roku or Chromecast to interface your current TV with NetFlix.

According to a manual there are all the connectors you need on rear panel of your TV. The easiest way is to use HDMI connector if your DVD player has one, if not you will have to use one of video connections. In that case check what is on your DVD player and match it with the connections on your TV.
