How do i plug external speakers to this TV. I cant find any Audio Outport on the TV

Asked by: TobinOKC
We appreciate your interest in this television. This model has not been designed to directly connect to any external speakers. The only audio output jack would be the OPTICAL Digital Audio Out connection, which is in place to connect to an external Home Theater System.

My TV somewhat-recently downloaded an update that added the setting "HDR Effect". Does the TV automatically do HDR for all settings or only when that is selected? Is it true HDR or simulated? Thank you for your time!

Asked by: HowDoYouDo87
We appreciate your interest in this television and its features. This model has not been designed with full HDR capabilities. However, this HDR Effect is designed to simulate HDR whenever a HDR signal is present.

I want to know if the UH8500 offers a breakout box accessory for the 3 USB connectors mounted on the back? If not what version USB should I get for extensions and will it effect the quality? I am also having problems viewing jpg photos from USB...?

Asked by: KelseyPro
We appreciate your interest in this television. There are no USB accessories provided with this TV. Any extension cables to be used must be compatible with USB 2.0 ports. Some USB Hubs may not work. If a USB device that is connected through a USB Hub is not detected, then try to connect it directly to the TV. For any additional information, please contact our Customer Interactive Center at 800-243-0000.
