How do you turn off the auto-detect HDMI feature? Sometimes my Apple TV comes on and then the TV automatically turns on as well but I don't want the TV to do so. How do you turn off this feature?
This is the most frustrating TV I've ever dealt with. I have essentially the same problem as everyone else in this thread which Samsung is ignoring: I do not have control over the TV I bought. I can't manually select the input or control when game mode is on or off, making any game played on a PC impossible to see because the sh!tty Samsung video post-processing darkens the screen and smudges the computer rendered graphics. If I try to change inputs, or the name of an input, or even change the icon which is for unfathomable reasons actually tied to video modes - it automaticall switches back. Game mode is magically not an enabled option, ever.
I've had the tv for almost two years now and it is certainly the last Samsung display I buy and I'm only keeping it because I'm stuck with it because this is not considered a warranty issue by Samsung. The Sony in the bedroom has zero problems responding to commands and, if you can imagine such a thing, WORKS AS A DISPLAY! Amazing! Sony should license their ultra advanced techonology to Samsung.

Lesson: If you want to have control over your TV or use any video source other than their forced advertisement 'SmartHUB' BS - do not buy a Samsung.
Slightly off topic I know, sorry, but having resolved the Auto Detect issue on my UK Samsung I now find myself with a 2 year old 4k pile of junk. So many things are slowly failing. When it reached the stage that I could only turn it on by switching it off at the wall then powering it back up again, and crossing my fingers to see if it would change channels I decided it was time it went to the great scrapyard in the sky.
it has been replaced by an equivalent TV of a different brand and I am happy once more. No more Samsung TVs will live in my house, way too many "features" for my liking.
I only today found this issue as well, when I turned on my PS3 to eject a dvd. The wife was watching TV and it got switched to the PS3 being turned on. The worse part is when I manually turned off the PS3, it doesn't automatically switch back to the only active input now HDMI 1 connected to the TV. I must retrieve the remote and select the proper HDMI input for TV viewing. Please Samsung this requires a firmware update.
