Just got a new 49UB8500 and I have a few questions.

  • I was able to program the remote to work with my DirecTV set top box.  But when I send audio out to my stereo via Optical, can I program my Magic Remote to control the volume on my stereo?
  • When changing audio output, I have to click on Home -> Settings -> Sound -> Sound out -> select.  Is there a quicker way?
  • When click Home, there are so many items in the bottom of the screen:  Today, Netflix, Hulu Plus, Vudu.....  Is there a way to hide the ones I don't have?
  • Does this TV work with Bluetooth headphones?

1. No. Only through HDMI.

2. No. You can press virtual remote and go tonsettings from there but is the same thing.

3. Yes. Move the apps you use in front of the ones you don't. Or delete the ones you do not use. To delete , highlight the tile and press the the x above.

4. Not yet. I cold not test but on other forums there were reports that there is no BT Headphone pairing option.

I found a section from online helps where it show the TV does support BT Headset under Home -> Sound -> Sound Out -> LG Sound Sync (Wireless).  There you supposes to be able to pair up with BT headsets.  However, the ones lists by LG are only the LG BT headsets.  I tried with my LogiTech BT headsets but it couldn't pair up.  This is really suck because it only works with LG headsets.

I don't think bluetooth headphones are supported for other products other than lg .

I'm specifically buying lg hbs 730 tone plus for this reason

Guess my TV ain't smart for not able to connect with headphones with basic bluetooth protocols.

      Questions about LG Web OS Smart TV and Dish TV Set Top Box
      By AnonViewer
      Hi,

      I purchased a new 43" LG 4K TV in India couple of months ago. Model Number is 43UJ652t. I use Dish TV DTH service for watching TV. I connected my Dish TV HD Set Top Box  to the TV through HDMI port (HDMI 1)

      I have couple of questions - 
       
      When I select the HDMI input to watch TV, the following information is displayed on the top-left corner of the TV (See pic 1 below). It says 720p there. What does it mean? I have  HD set top box with HD Channel subscription. Why is it saying 720p there even when I am watching HD channels? There is an Icon in the Web OS launcher called Live TV (see  pic 2 below). It doesn't work with DTH set-top boxes? Does it only work with Antenna and Free to Air channels? The TV guide icon (see pic 3) in the Web OS launcher doesn't doesn't play the TV Guide for my Set-Top Box. It asks me to fine tune the programming first  but Auto-tuning doesn't find any channels? Is the TV Guide functionality available only for the Antenna and  FTA channels? Can I add channels from my set-top box to the My Channels menu (see pic 4)? How do I add shows from Amazon Prime to the "My Content" menu for easy access. Currently, it only allows me to add YouTube content Can I add a specific channel from my Dish TV set top box as a long press shortcut in my LG Magic Remote? In the below LG videos, when the presenter selected  the STB while setting up Live TV, the TV automatically searches for the channels and populates the TV Guide? Is it not possible to do it for Indian DTH set top boxes?
         



      These questions are driving me mad. Please help me in understanding the LG Web OS System better

      Bonjour,
      I just bought an LG TV: 43UM7450PLA and I have a few questions about the use of this TV.
      1- On my home network, I have a DLNA server where are stocked films, music and photos. When I want to play music, sometimes the answer is: "there is no music files in that folder". Strange answer because there are music files in the folder and because sometimes this music is played without any complaint from the TV.  How can I know why this answer (no music files...) is given? Are there some log files somewhere in the TV?
      2- I often watch the TV via the internet navigator and it is very difficult to have a stable connection, the stream is often interrupted or stopped with a message error (an error occured, try again). If I watch the same TV stream at the same time on my computer, it works like a charm. Why this different behaviour on the TV?
      Thank you for your lightd.
      F.P.

      new to WebOS, two simple questions
      By foxfire_pt
      I like webos on my TV, but there are only two small anoying details that would be great if there is a way around it. 
      1. TV in Portugal Vodafone has still Cable and Antenna channels. Scanning is not a problem and quality is acceptable for the source. Those channels because they are analogue will not gain description and only show the frequency name such as "S34". Is there any way to rename the channel to something more human readable such as "RTP1" ?
      2. Adding a bookmark from the web browser to the main screen works like a charm, but is there any way when lauching the bookmark from there in FullScreen and it doesn't show the intire browser ?
      thanks

      Looking to buy Smart TV with screen grab function - Questions
      By AceMcHammer
      I am not a current owner of an LG Smart TV but I'm looking to buy a Smart TV with a screen grab function built into the TV.  I searched and came upon information in this forum that LG Smart TV's with WebOS on them do indeed have a screen grab feature and I have some questions regarding that.
      1. Just to reaffirm my info, do LG Smart TV's actually have a screen grab feature built into them?
      2. Is WebOS stand alone software built into the TV set? In other words, is the TV independent of a PC operating system?
      3. Concerning the screen grab feature. Is the screen grab feature independent within the TV set/not dependent on any other device to operate?
      4. Can you save your screen grab to a USB drive?
      5. If you can save your image to a USB drive what format does the TV save them in? JPEG, BMP, etc.
      6. What is the max resolution the TV saves the screen grab?
      7. Can you do a screen grab of any image ported to your TV from any device? Cable STB, Video Game Console, etc.
      8.  The info that I read on another thread here  said  that to take a screenshot on the LG you press the input/123  button on the remote and save it to the photo editing app. Is this photo editing app a part of the LG TV software and do you navigate and execute commands in this photo editing app with the remote control?
