Not active for now but you can use it to play media from flashdrive... At least the decoder isn't 100% useless

Your TV will do just well and you don't have to waste energy/electricity to power the decoder when your tv is already on

Yes both are correct. The money you are willing to spend on either is the real factor here.

My 2020 Lg TV inbuilt decoder was so good that I stick to it; very sharp signal (better than my mini 2121), easy to track with and play h.265 video format easily. There's no shortcomings except maybe IPTV but it's a smart TV also and I don't really miss anything. It depends on what you want in FTA and whether you can master it's operation, settings etc

Many thanks for this.
I am currently using a 2022 LG TV too and i have been watching satellites on TV myself. And yes no IPTV (But i think with the webOS apps one can get that sorted out) I haven't tried it anyway.

But thanks for the clarification. Will be sticking to my TV satellite.
