The new smart remote control still sucks, I do not care for voice commands, so I've ordered a 10 euro clone remote control of the standard Samsung RC, it is going to arrive on next thursday.
So far, so good.
I've not tried connecting my desktop PC to the TV, but it is full of cables and on the other side of the room, so let's forget about trying to play on the 50" (and my RX580 would struggle at 4K anyway).
I'd like to connect my HP laptop to the TV, instead but... it only has a VGA and a DisplayPort output. No HDMI. Obviously the TV has no VGA and no DP inputs... so HDMI or nothing.
How can I fix this easy? Display Port cable and an HDMI adapter at the TV end? Is that feasable?
