Sounds like the standard symptoms resulting from the bad capacitors which plagued a number of Samsung TVs.
There was even a lawsuit that required them to fix the issue free-of-charge -- but it's no longer in effect.
If your TV matches any of the following models, then it's most likely what's causing the issue ...
... even if it's a different model, it could still be the direct cause.
It's not horribly expensive to repair, and easy enough to do for anyone who's decent with a soldering iron.
Once they're replaced, it should work like new again.
Best of luck.

Hi @max45 ,
Please give all relevant details such as make and model number of the TV, whether the Power light is on steady or blinks and if it blinks is there is a pattern to the blinks or not. Whether anything happened before the problem occurred such as a storm or a power failure etc.
Only the most relevant details are necessary. This will help others to help you.
