   @wowaname I'd have argued OLED would have a lower lifespan than projectors. Projectors can be noisy and require higher maintenance. Depends what you're willing to take.

     @thatbrickster family had an RPTV previously, so im kinda familiar with maintenance. i probably have an irrational liking toward projectors, they just seem... nice. whats the estimated lifespan on oled televisions? i would assume colour balance could deteriorate faster over time due to the nature of oled, cant think of anything else

     https://old.reddit.com/r/hometheater/comments/a9h3dj/newb_question_oled_vs_projector/might be worth investing in oled. then again, projectors are efficient on physical spatial requirement. can literally sit a projector on my wardrobe and point it at a wall

     hell, i could settle for a decent 720p that meets those criteria, 1080p isnt an absolute must for me

     if anyone has tv model suggestions, i'd welcome them. current tv has 3 hdmi ports, a vga and antenna in that i dont use currently, a dvd player that i havent tried out yet—most important thing for me is hdmi input. i dont want a smart tv, nothing network-capable, i just want something that properly supports hdmi standby and cec, and isnt a bitch to configure

     like this tv was on the cheap end so im not exactly bitching (plus *i* didnt pay for it, which is a plus) but im disappointed in westinghouse's evidential lack of care put into hdmi compatibility

     so @e told me about hdmi-cec but unfortunately my tv doesnt even seem to support it. i need to save up for a 1080p tv that handles hdmi much better than this one, and sell the 720p one i got eventually
