Unleash the Fun with Outdoor Movie Nights and Music

Turning your backyard into a fun entertainment spot is a fantastic project, but it can come with a few bumps in the road. Weather can be unpredictable, and making sure outdoor TVs and audio perform well can be tricky. A cozy movie night can quickly tumble into chaos when rain damages your equipment or the picture lags. But with the right information and gear, your backyard can be transformed into the ultimate hangout.

Let's dive into why some outdoor TVs and speakers might not shine as brightly during extreme weather, how to keep the audio and visuals in sync, and how to pick the perfect TV to complement your space. 

Entertainment Made Easy

Voice control is one of the most impressive features in today's smart homes and home entertainment. Walk into your house, ask it to dim the lights to 50%, and turn on Netflix, and it's done. Would you like to lower the shades? Just ask. 

This feature is a tremendous support until it isn't. You walk into your home, arms laden with groceries, and command the kitchen lights to turn on. Then, you stumble in the dark when nothing happens. You and the family relax in the media room amidst popcorn and sodas, ready for Friday movie night. You tell your 4K UHD TV to turn on and tune into Disney+, and, once again, nothing—no TV, no Disney, no laughter. 

What happened? 

Voice controls aren't always stable; in many cases, they may need a reboot every month or so. Because of this frustration, many people turn to the Comcast Voice Control Remote. Yes, Comcast. Not only do they turn to it, but they love it. 

Let's discover why. 

Discover the Benefits of Extending Your Wi-Fi Coverage

As the growing trend to extend indoor spaces into outdoor environments continues, homeowners look to enhance backyard entertainment, creating spaces that mimic the depth and dimension of their indoor audio and video. 

Bluetooth speakers give way to satellite speakers strategically placed throughout the landscape. Outdoor 4K UHD TVs appear by pools and on patios, creating a space for movie nights under the stars and the big game on the weekends. Outdoor lighting, shades, and fire pits create spaces that are enjoyed nearly year-round. 

But something’s missing.

To really thrive in the great outdoors, all your devices require connectivity. In your home, Wi-Fi plays an essential role in ensuring a connected home that works as you want it to, when you want it to. When you start to extend your living spaces, it’s important to take your Wi-Fi with you. 

That’s where outdoor Wi-Fi comes in.
