Playing with Plex, I was choosing something to watch when I realised that looking at the TV from the seat where I use the computer while wearing my reading glasses means that the TV screen is just a mess of colour.
I had to choose a film at random, but ended up with the Hammer version of the Hound of the Baskervilles, so not a bad choice.
I also discovered that while Plex says that .mkv files are playable, my TV disagrees and I have to convert them to .avi or .mp4 - it doesn't take long to convert them and I have a gizmo that does it, but it's a minor PITA.
