It was merely a matter of time that Samsung was going to stop installing or even allow manual install. In fact, a while ago I made you all aware that Samsung warned/asked me to remove Smart IPTV Manual install steps. I actually asked them to PAY ME ( LOL ). Samsung was not too talkative after that.

Shall I Switch My Samsung TV OFF now?
If this all goes how it goes, then Samsung just basically sold us all a TV that only works for the Free View and has no interest to allow users to save money and want you to buy NEW TVs. If you decide to break the TV or destroy it or simply turn it off, then I completely understand. However, I do recommend you try out the steps in Installing Smart IPTV manually first and see if it works. I will try to update the software as much as I can to make it work for all the TVs. Click here for the updated Manual steps information that I recently posted.
What does the future look like for this?
With Smart IPTV removed, Chances are we are looking at Samsung only want to push their own software or more Apple TV Casting TV software which is very surprising to be honest as I didn't think that these the Fruit company and Samsung were working so close before until this situation occurred.
Shall I get a new TV?
If you want to buy a new TV, Can I recommend no MORE Samsung TV, please? I recommend Android TV only with Google play store already installed on it. And even if Samsung make a new tv with Googe play store installed on it, I still don't think we should use Samsung TV in the future. Let's face it, they can't be trusted with such a bad Karma that they brought on themself.
TVs you can try to buy are either the Sony Android TV or Philips new Android TV. We now have new companies making new Android TV with google play store install. Companies like Sharp, TCL and Skyworth. However these are brand new companies, and there are few reviews on it, Check out the Android TV website for more information.
