melanie_marie27 Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 I still use my TV (even though it sometimes "pops" on and off when my room gets too hot.) 😕 I love my TV, I just got really used to it and even though everyone is getting bigger and bigger screens, I've stuck with mine throughout the years. I couldn't use my PC to watch much of anything, it's simply too old. Which do you use more for watching movies.. PC of TV? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonberry Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 I watch series/movies on my TV. I hate the cramped feeling of sitting by the computer just to watch stuff, it always feels like I have to be in "battlestation"-mode and for the same reason I almost exclusively play PC games when they're only available there, like MMOs for instance. I much prefer relaxing in the couch watching something on a large screen, or playing with a controller. melanie_marie27 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 I watch more on TV than using my PC when I was that movie dude. TV feels better and shows on a wider screen than on PC when you're watching on 52" plasma TV or something bigger, lol. melanie_marie27 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 You mean the screen to watch then your TV then yes, I have a amazon fire stick that's HDMI that I use to my monitor and then Dispay port for my desktop, not the same as watching on the TV with HDR10 support melanie_marie27 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ajibusu Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 Â I use my PC to play more games instead of watching movies. I like to go to the cinemas to see some movies by the way. That is one of the ways that I get to enjoy most movies that I desire to watch. I feel the TV is now becoming a means where I see most football games. melanie_marie27 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akun Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 I do this quite often because my gaming chair setup is just a lot more comfortable than my 4K mounted TV setup. The TV's tilted in a way that I couldn't relax as comfortably. Still, I try to watch movies on my TV as often as I can because it's 4K after all, and I want my movie experience to have that kind of awesome visuals. melanie_marie27 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane99 Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 I use both. These days I probably use my PC more for movies and TV than my actual TV. Main reason why is because I'm on it more often for work and hanging out. I watch movies almost every night with my friends, otherwise I'm gaming. melanie_marie27 and Ajibusu 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melanie_marie27 Posted September 26, 2022 Author Share Posted September 26, 2022 Sounds fun. So you use your phone for work, and then take breaks to watch stuff in between and talk to your friends.. Thanks Kane99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Kane99 Sometimes I use my phone for work, but I will often be working and have a video on my other screen. I currently have a three screen setup for my PC. My main one is used for general use, work, etc. My second monitor is mostly used for video/screensharing from discord, etc. Third screen is mostly meant for Discord itself. I don't work much on my phone unless I'm away from my PC or not home. I used to work more on my phone, but got tired of doing that, so don't do it as much anymore. melanie_marie27 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Honestly, nowadays I do tend to watch movies on my PC and Phone far more than the TV and it's more of a convenience thing. I'm always on my computer for a large part of the day so that's what I tend to watch them on unless I have someone over and we're watching Netflix. I'll use the TV in that scenario. melanie_marie27 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The TV is just there for visitors to your place and nothing more on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 My TV is mainly for video games, while my phone enables me to do my online gigs. When I need something to print out, I go use a desktop. In the past, my cousin used to allow me play around his PC, and I used it also for gaming and not watching movies. I've been a fan of gaming than watching movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyng Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 At this point, probably... I don't watch many movies to begin with, but I think I watch more on Netflix than I do on TV (and certainly more than I do at theatres!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Everything I watch is either some kind of streaming, YouTube, or DVD's. Primarily it's YouTube. I'm a bit of an addict. I stream a few shows on Hulu. Right now I'm binging on Forged In Fire. I've always wanted to learn blacksmithing, and this show is at least giving me something of it.
