Features of Netflix

Many TCL Google TVs support Netflix. Here are the features of Netflix you will get on your TCL TV:

1. Navigation

Netflix is always setting the watch list for viewers’ comfort and easy accessibility. You can watch movies and TV shows through rows.

For example, when the Netflix home screen appears on your Google TV, you will see different rows with several categories like dramas, comedies, TV shows, thrillers, etc. There’s also a “my list” row dedicated according to your watching behaviors.

2. Regions

We all know Netflix is a worldwide streaming service. However, there are some regional restrictions. It would be better if you knew whether your region has Netflix support or not. When your Google TV has pending updates and does not support Netflix, you should log in and update your device. Then, go to the Netflix website and activate your device.

3. Parental Control

If you are a parent, you would know the importance of parental control, especially when your children are under 16 years.

Thanks to Netflix, you can control the contents your child would watch like games, sports, movies, dramas, series, etc. It’s pretty easy to manage individual profiles on Netflix. You can also create children's profiles called “Netflix kids” to modify the watch list of your children.

4. Resolution

Netflix contents come with low to high resolutions. But it would depend on your device. When you buy a 4K TV, you can watch up to 4K resolution videos on Netflix. If your TV supports 8K resolution, the same formula is applicable.

However, internet connection is also a fact here. You can stream Netflix content on its highest resolution with a fast internet connection.

5. Alternate Audio and Subtitles

Another fantastic feature of Netflix on Google TV is that it supports audio alteration and subtitles.

You can turn on alternate audio, closed captions, and subtitles in most movies and series. For audio alteration, you need to check audio capabilities. If this feature isn't working, your TCL Google TV won't support audio alteration.

You can choose subtitles from the customization option. If your device doesn’t support any customization, the default captions and subtitles will appear on the screen.

Steps to Set Up Netflix on TCL Google TV

To watch Netflix on your TCL Google TV, you need to follow some simple steps.

Step 1: Get a high-speed wireless internet connection and a Gmail account.  

Step 2: Ensure the power supply on your TV and turn it on.

Step 3: Now it’s time to activate your TCL Google TV. You can activate Netflix in three ways.

Method 1: With an Android Phone

After turning on the TV, it will ask for a quick setup. First, choose the Android phone option. Then, select continue with your remote.

Now grab your Android phone and open the Google app. Search for “set up my device.” Some instructions will appear on the screen. You need to follow the instructions and wait until a code appears on your phone and TV.

Tap on your TV name and follow further instructions to connect your TV with your Google account. And then connect it to Wi-Fi.

Method 2: With the TV Remote

Remember the first option that appeared on TV and asked to choose to set up with an Android device? Select "skip” if you don’t have an Android phone or want to set it up with your remote.

Connect the TV to the Wi-Fi and check for updates. Sign in to your Google account from the TV and do precisely the instructions say.

Method 3: With an iOS Device or Computer

Choose the “skip” option with your remote at first. Then connect your TV and iOS or computer with the same Wi-Fi. Check for any system updates. Choose sign-in on TV and use your phone or computer to log into your Google account. Follow further instructions for the final setup.
