Woes all round then tyrewise.  Always annoy me when people offer to split the petrol cost on shared journeys.  Tyres per mile are about a third as much on top of that.   evil:

Why not?

Our Samsung Tele and Sound bar and Blueray player all work well.  A few counter intuitive quirks but all such have them

Series 7 onwards they removed the ability to play certain video formats. It was a bugger to discover when I 'upgraded' that a huge chunk of my library simply wouldn't play... MKV and AVI files among them.

I started a thread on the Samsung support forum and hundreds of people have reported issues and disappointment with their purchases.

It doesn't affect you if you are just pushing content through HDMI but if you have a hard disc or NAS that you want to play stuff from you'll find that loads of files that played on a Series 6 or earlier won't play on a Series 7 or later.

Ours must be a bit old then (think it's c 2015, well it does have 3D) as it plays all the video files we have on USB media fine.  AVI files are always an issue as it's basically only a wrapper and not an encoding as such so you can always find some embedded formats that something can't play.  IIRC MKV is the same.  Pisses me off that so many companies mislead over container format compatibility.
