How do I access my built-in TV apps like Hulu?
Ijust got Cox Contour and so far we like it, but it doesn’t seem to include Hulu, which was one if the built-in apps from our LG smart TV.So now I’m trying to figure out how to access the built-in TV apps, and more specifically the Hulu app, since Contour already hasNetflix and Amazon Prime. Is there a way to access the built-in TV apps?
HDMI on Contour box not compatible with HDMI on TV
My mother was forced to switch from the traditional Cox main cable box to Contour, and the Contour HDMI connection is apparently not compatible with the HDMI port on her first generation Sharp Aquos HD LCD TV (she just gets a blank screen), forcing her to use the much lower resolution coaxial connection. Other devices, such as a laptop, DVD player, and Blu-Ray player, work fine with that TV HDMI port, and both the picture and sound on the TV are gorgeous, and worked perfectly with the old cable box, so she's not about to replace the TV. According to the tech who came out to troubleshoot, the issue is apparently with the overly sensitive HDMI port on the Contour boxes. Is there another type of box with alternate connections (i.e. DVI, composite, etc.) that Cox can provide at no additional charge? She's already paying around $200 per month for TV, internet, and phone, and that's without having any movie channels or a DVR; and since it was Cox'schoice to force the box change, the problem is on their end.
