Mac address ban the TV from your network and it should work but will no longer have Internet access. I just did this locally and it worked for the one, have to go out but will do it on the other one as well.
In order to prevent it from blinking, factory reset the TV once it's unconnected to the network, and then make sure to not reconnect it to the Internet during the setup process. Afterwards, you'll be stuck trying to find ways to replicate all of the built-in functionality of the TV like I now am. I had no idea the Chromecast w/ google TV's apps had such shitty surround support....anyone know a good replacement device? The ONN streamers are similar in that they basically only put out PCM stereo for Hulu.
