I see the same thing on my smart-tv, while watching movies from my laptop.

If you have a smart-tv then you have a tv with a computer in it and it's 
try to communicate with your computer and your computer is trying to 
communicate with your tv, not a good thing.  Both Wheezy and Jessie with 
no-systemd do not have this behavior.  Maybe the problem can be fixed, 
maybe.
