With the popularity of smart TVs, watching various videos through smart TVs has become a new choice for more and more people. However, watching videos on television is subject to many restrictions. With the introduction of various policies to regulate the development of Internet TV, the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, Today, all major video sites have basically launched video applications for the TV side. They are the cooperation between YouBing and CIBN, CIBN One Movie, Iqiyi and Galaxy Internet TV, Latchi TV, Tencent and South New Media. Cloud Audio/Visual Penguin and Sohu Video and CIBN have jointly launched the CIBN Flying Fox Movie. They are the protagonists of today's evaluation.
The reason is to install video software for TV because the TV's built-in video platform still has many deficiencies in resources, and each video site has more and more broadcast or home-made content. To view different content, multiple websites need to be opened, just like mobile phones. It is not possible to install only one video software. On the TV, multiple video software are also needed to make up for the lack of content resources.
Compared with the corresponding Internet video platforms, the four TV-side software have not only changed their names, but have also changed their icons, but they can still be easily identified. In terms of installation methods, although smart TVs generally have built-in application stores, generally these audio and video software cannot be found and they need to be downloaded and installed by themselves. The best method is to download and install them through a mainstream third-party application store such as a sofa housekeeper.

Cloud Audio/Penguin Search Interface
Lyche TV's smart search keyboard
All four software support the first letter search, but the difference is still relatively large. The CIBN One Movie and the Litchi TV Keyboard layout are basically the same, but the Litchi TV has designed a "smart keyboard" that can be word association, after entering a letter Recommend a few words associated with it, such as search for "run brother", click on "B" and then click on the recommended "P" can point to the results, the efficiency of the search exceeds the CIBN video.

In addition to searching through software, the four softwares Litchi TV and Cloud Audio/Visual Penguin also launched exclusive operation methods for TV-side video search and viewing. Litchi TV has an “Aisin†client, and cloud audio/visual penguins use “penguinsâ€. The movie "WeChat public number" is searched for and launched.
Through the "Aisin" client operation, you can search and search for various video resources on your mobile phone. After you find a resource, you can click on "TV View" to display the corresponding content on the TV. At the same time, progress, sound, etc. can be performed through the APP. Adjustment, basically no longer need remote control when watching TV.
Cloud Audio/Visual Penguin also supports mobile phone search, pays attention to the "Penguin TV" public number and completes the binding. You can directly input the content you want to see in the library, and then click "View on TV" to display on the TV. It is more convenient to look at the content than to enter the search on the TV.
All four software can push the content to be played on the TV through the corresponding mobile video app (TV or box needs to support Airplay/DLAN), but the experience is not as good as “Love letter†or “Penguin TVâ€. The reason is that you cannot skip more than one minute of advertising, so if you use it with mobile phones, Litchi TV has advantages over Cloud Audio/Visual Penguin. In addition, if you watch NBA Live Games with Cloud Audio and Penguin, you can only push through the "Pink Penguin TV" public number.
