Find answers or Ask a question.
  • Total questions: 3
  • Questions unAnswered : 3

#1 It seems like this model has many less features as compared to D32F-F1. Did Visio remove the following features? - VIZIO SmartCast - Amazon Video - Fandango - Hulu - Spotify - YouTube - iHeartRadio - Screen Mirroring (Mobile to TV)?
This television still runs the SmartCast interface along with all applications that are available. This television will also have the Apple Airplay 2 and Homekit support for screen mirroring from apple devices.

#2 Should this TV see 5g WiFi network connection?
This television is only capable of connecting to a 2.4 Ghz frequency network.

#3 Can I stream Spectrum or add an app to this TV?
Though you cannot add apps, SmartCast televisions support Google Chromecast and Apple AirPlay 2 so that you can share content from the latest applications on your phone, tablet, or computer directly to the TV.

#4 Does this have an Ethernet plugin?
Yes, this television has an Ethernet port.

#5 Does this TV allow me to download the MLB app?
MLB app not available to be downloaded on the smart cast input, But depending on the app you may cast or airplay the app to the TV from a wireless device that is connected on the same network connection.

#6 Can this be wall mounted?
Yes, the VESA standard for this model is 100mm x 100mm.

#7 Hello can someone tell me the difference between G1 and G4 is there a difference between the two models?
There is no difference between the two models.

#8 Just installed a Vizio D32F-G. When turned on, the screen emits an odor that is noticeable. What's up with that?
New televisions may produce an unusual smell or odor when first turned on. This is due in part to the manufacturing process of components. Some of the electronic components are "coated" to prevent corrosion during their journey from the manufacturer to the home. When those components heat up for the first couple of times, depending on how long you leave the device on, an odor can occur. This smell is not harmful to your health and it will dissipate usually between 10 days and 2 weeks and not return. This is normal and occurs with virtually all consumer electronics.

#9 Can you tell me if this TV has a QAM tuner in it? My son's college dorm requires a QAM tuner, whatever that is. Thanks!
Yes, this model has a QAM tuner built in!

#10 Does this TV have on/off, channel change, volume, various other menu controls on the device or ONLY via remote? I'm searching for a TV now because it stopped reading the remote and no controls on the TV -- only through the remote.
The television has a power, volume up and down and input button the on the television. This television can also be control using the VIZIO SmartCast app for a mobile device.

#16 Whenever my TV is turned on, there is this annoying flashing light on the bottom right hand corner. Is there a reason for this and any way for me to get it to stop while still keeping my TV on?
First thing I noticed as well. The flashing won't go away but at least you can keep it on steady until you turn off the tv. It will be less annoying. Go to menu, system, reset & admin, power indicator to ON, turn your TV off and then back on. Personally, I rather see the light on instead. Why does it? No idea.
