How can I watch MHz Choice on my TV?

In today’s ever changing world of home entertainment, there have never been more ways to watch your favorite shows, or “content” as the industry likes to label them. I’m a little old fashioned so calling my favorite TV show “content” feels a little impersonal. To this day, I don’t think I’ve ever exclaimed to a fellow fan of WKRP in Cincinnati  “THAT’S MY FAVORITE CONTENT!” So, if it’s all the same to you, I’m gonna stick with “shows”. Good? Good.

The Basics

Here at MHz Choice, we often are asked a variation of this question: “How can I watch MHz Choice on my TV?” Well, there are a variety of ways (which I cover in more detail below) but let’s get the basic requirements out of the way first.

What you DON’T need:
MHz Choice is an internet only video-on-demand service. MHz Choice is not a cable television channel. So a cable or satellite package is not required.

What you DO need:
• A high-speed internet connection*¹
• An mhzchoice.com subscription
• A TV or supported device that can connect to the internet

I know what you’re thinking: “How do I know if my TV can connect to the internet?? WHY IS THIS SO HARD!??!” OK, breathe, we’re gonna get through this.

Most modern TVs and Smart TVs manufactured after 2010 come ready to be connected to the internet and/or have what’s called an “HDMI port” on the back. An HDMI port is where you plug in an external streaming device, like a Roku player, which in turn connects to the internet. (see fig. 1 below).

Option #1: Watch on a Streaming Device

Now that we’ve established the basics of how to watch, let’s get into the specifics. The first option is with a video streaming device. Great! But what’s a video streaming device? Simply put, a streaming device is an external piece of hardware that connects your TV to the internet. Below is a list of the different streaming devices that we currently support. Click on the links below to find out more about how to watch on each device.


Option #2: MHz Choice on Samsung Smart TVs

Watch MHz Choice right on your Samsung TV with the MHz Choice Samsung Smart TV app (Tizen)! Compatible with Samsung TVs manufactured in 2018 or later.
