I'm buying a newtv that uses a "One Connect Box" as an interface with the TV so only one cable plugs into the TV. I suppose they do this to declutter and also allow for future upgrades, to do that you need a new box(imagine that). Anyone with a new tv that uses this box what did you do with the box besides plugging cables into it? Did you hide it or make it visible or do something totally different? I get the TV Saturday and was planning to mount it on the wall right away, but then there is this box and of course challenge of hiding cords and what not so I'm just going to put on the stand for a while.

Any ideas would be more than welcome!

Here is a You tube link that explains it. It is designed to assist in all kinds of applications like updates for your TV, Amazon, Netflix etc.

I have seen that video before. I understand the functionality of the box I am interested in what folks do with it after they have set up the TV. Do you display it, hide the box outta sight, or something else altogether.

If it has remote control that uses radio to communicate, you can hide it if you want but if it uses UV or some other light wave then the sensor will need to be in sight of the remote.
