Walmart is looking to buy TV manufacturer Vizio, according to The Wall Street Journal, even though it sells its own brand of TVs.

Here are a few pix, as promised! (see our site)The Peacock has landed. BRAVE NEW WORLDThe Peacock Network launched wide on July 15th and the first Peacock Original we checked out was the series Brave New WorldFirst: What is Peacock and how do I get it?The Peacock Network is NBC's streaming app. Get it? Peacock?(see our site)Peacock was soft launched to Comcast customers April 15th and wide, this week. It's available on Xbox One devices, including the Xbox One S and Xbox One X, Apple devices, including the iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Apple TV 4K, and Apple TV HD.Peacock is also web browser friendly if you are running recent versions of Chrome, Firefox, MS Edge, and Safari. You can app Peacock to Android tablets, newer models of Android TVs, LG Smart TVs, and Vizio TVs with SmartCast and Chromecast-enabled devices. On June 20th Peacock became available on Playstation 4. But Hey! What about FireTV and Roku?As of this date, Peacock is not available on the menu for Firestick/TV or Roku. NBC is blaming the streaming platforms, blah blah... who cares. Below you'll find the instructions on how to add Peacock to your device.FireTV/Firestick or RokuGet your Firestick (we highly recommend) or Roku clicking o the images below. (see our site)Is Peacock worth it?See our site for all the details. Brave New WorldWe binged the entire season/series(?) of the Peacock original, Brave New World. Brave New World, is based on Aldous Huxley's 1932 novel but is uncannily current. Made us wonder how the residents of "New London" would have reacted to our current situation!  We think the sound of Soma Pez dispensers would be deafening! Did we like it? Hell yeah!And not just because of the ubiquitous of sex and orgies.See out website What Are Travis and Elaine Watching? for more about BRAVE NEW WORLD, a Perry Mason update and a new song by Johnny Stromboli!

The 7 Best 4K TVs - Spring 2020 (RTINGS.com) The editors at RTINGS.com have just updated their Seven Best Best 4K TVs for the Spring and we bring those to you. RTINGS.com is a great resource when you are looking to buy a new UHD TV. They have the most thorough reviews of any site on the Internet. All the TVs that we discuss come with an in depth review that can be found at the links below. Best 4k TV: LG B9 OLED (Street Price $1,900 65”) The best 4k TV we've tested so far is the LG B9 OLED. With OLED technology, you get an amazing picture quality that's suitable for almost any type of setting. It has exceptional dark room performance due to its infinite contrast ratio and perfect black uniformity, and its excellent reflection handling and good peak brightness make it a good choice for bright rooms too. Its out-of-the-box color accuracy is a bit disappointing, but on the bright side, it supports a wide color gamut to produce rich and vibrant colors in HDR content. Full Review 8.9  Mixed Usage  9.3  Movies  8.5  TV Shows  8.7  Sports  9.4  Video Games  9.0  HDR Movies  9.0  HDR Gaming  8.9  PC Monitor  PROS Perfect blacks and black uniformity. Image remains accurate when viewed from the side. Nearly instantaneous response time and very low input lag. CONS Has the risk of permanent burn-in with static content (see here). Automatic Brightness Limiter (ABL) can become distracting at times. Best 4k TV Cheaper LED Alternative: VIZIO P SERIES QUANTUM X 2019 (Street Price $1,000 65”) If you'd rather not have to worry about the possibility of burn-in on an OLED TV like the LG B9 OLED, then consider the Vizio P Series Quantum X 2019. It has a VA panel with an outstanding native contrast ratio, and it also has a great local dimming feature that boosts the contrast even more, producing deep, inky blacks when viewed in the dark. And best of all, VA panels are virtually immune from image retention and permanent burn-ins. The most notable aspect of this TV is its incredible peak brightness. Combined with its excellent wide color gamut, HDR content is delivered the way it was intended, with saturated colors and bright highlights. Response time and input lag are both outstanding, but unfortunately, it has sub-par viewing angles, so images don't look as good when viewed from the side. Vizio's SmartCast platform is easy to use; however, it's still quite limited when it comes to app availability. Full Review 8.4  Mixed Usage  8.4  Movies  8.1  TV Shows  8.1  Sports  8.9  Video Games  8.5  HDR Movies  8.7  HDR Gaming  8.7  PC Monitor  PROS Outstanding peak brightness in SDR and HDR. Deep, uniform blacks. Great motion handling. CONS Image degrades when viewed at an angle. Best 4k TV For Color Accuracy: Sony X950G (Street Price $1,400 65”)  The TV with the best color accuracy out of the box is the Sony X950G. This TV has a great picture quality and a host of features to please most people. It has outstanding contrast ratio and impressive black uniformity, making it a good choice for dark room viewing. It even has a full array local dimming feature, though the performance is somewhat mediocre. If you have a wide seating arrangement, the VA panel can cause colors to shift when viewed from the side, but the larger variants of this TV has Sony's 'X-Wide Angle' feature to improve viewing angles, albeit at the expense of contrast ratio. Full Review 8.3  Mixed Usage  8.4  Movies  8.1  TV Shows  8.0  Sports  8.7  Video Games  8.3  HDR Movies  8.5  HDR Gaming  8.6  PC Monitor  PROS Outstanding peak brightness. Amazing out-of-the-box color accuracy. Great motion handling. CONS Poor viewing angles. For the remaining TVs will list category, model, price, and mixed usage rating. We'll also provide a link to the full review. Best 4k TV For Color Accuracy Wide Viewing Angle Alternative Model LG SM9000 Street price $1,100 65” Mixed Usage 7.9 Full Review  Best 4k TV For Color Accuracy Alternative for Gaming Model SAMSUNG Q70/Q70R QLED Street price $1,100 65” Mixed Usage 7.9 Full Review  Best Budget 4k TV Model Hisense H9F Street price $900 65” Mixed Usage 8.4 Full Review  Best Budget 4k TV (Cheaper Alternative) Model Hisense H8F Street price $600 65” Mixed Usage 8.0 Full Review

Make sure when you send in your show promo, your name and your show are prominently shown in the email, as well as a link back to your website or any other social media properties that you'd like to share with us. This makes it super easy for me to connect with you and PROMOTE you. I do my best to link back to you in as many I've been getting people that have been sending me promos that have no URL anywhere, no email signature and the email address that it comes from doesn't help PLUS the name they've named the promo in no way helps to tell me what the podcast is either. It would make my life easier if you could simply offer that information Libsyn Power Tips How to get two different Media players from your one libsyn account Rob has 2 media players on Podcast411 and today in iOS. If you go to Podcast411.com right now you will see a big player top center - with the artwork for Rich Eisens Podcast (at the time of this writing) - that is his show level player - it has in the artwork and it keeps up to date whenever he publishes a new episode. He doesn't do anything to update it. If you scroll down you will see the episode level players - those stay fixed per the episode they are assigned. How you get both is the following. First you set up the player you want for the episode level. You do that by checking out this support article. Get the size and type you want - then copy the embed code and paste to your site. Next - Set up the player you want for the per episode posts. And leave it set there. Then when you publish your next episode at the end after you hit publish you will get the embed code for just that episode - per the size / type you set up. But wherever you previously embedded the Show level player - it will continue to update to show the most recent episode. URL's To Use when Direct Linking Sometime on websites or twitter we will see people linking to their files but with the wrong URL. They will be using the URL - where their file redirects to. For example it may be - http://ec.libsyn.com/…. or http://hwcdn.libsyn.com…. Those are the wrong URL's to use - they are temp URL's - and can and WILL break in the future. The URL you want to use for direct links to your media files is http://traffic.libsyn.com/YOURSLUG/FILENAME If you check your links and it is not traffic after the http:// - you are doing it wrong. It also can effect your stats - as in not getting counted. The real issue is anything other than the traffic link is a temp URL - and will in the future break - not that it may break - it WILL BREAK. Will using your city's name in your podcast episode get you in trouble? Per Rob's email below: “Hi Rob, this evening I went to a community meeting in Inglewood I go to every month. They love the concept of my radio show. But the block club president suggests I should call the councilman in the city or speak to the city legal lawyer to find out if it's OK to use Inglewood in my title. Only word I know is registered is Realtor(r) what do you suggest I do to verify its OK. thank you for your time” Read this article. The second letter in the article sums it up nicely. In other words - just use Inglewood in your show's name. And if anyone gives you grief - send them the link above. Feed not updating in iTunes This next one is an issue regarding those using Feedburner and a problem with the Podcasts App. A Libsyn user was having problems when listeners tapped to download an episode in the Podcasts App - It streamed fine - but it would not download into the app. It would give an error and time out. We figured out it was not the Libsyn feed - as putting that in direct to the Podcasts App worked fine. It wound up being the person was using Smartcast and Stats for Feedburner. When they turned those items off - Then the downloads started up fine. So if you are using Feedburner - check your show in the Podcasts App and see if you can get it to download, if not make sure to deselect all the smartcast and stats options in Feedburner - which you really don't need anyway if you have Libsyn as your source feed. That issue would be for anyone using Feedburner regardless of where you host or what your source feed is - there is something going on with the Podcasts App - that does not like smartcast and stats options in Feedburner.
