I used to be able to surf to OPB.org using WebOs on my LG Smart TV and watch the Livestream with no problem. But about a year ago something changed and the Livestream became covered up by the programming grid (with a little bit showing above the grid) and nothing I can do removes it. Is there a way to watch PBS on my LG Smart TV?

To "right click" on an LG TV remote with WebOS, press and hold the center wheel (OK button) while hovering over the desired item on the screen; this essentially acts as a right-click function on a computer mouse.    Key points about the LG Magic Remote:    Pointer mode: The remote operates like a computer mouse, allowing you to navigate with the cursor by moving the remote.    Clicking: Pressing the center wheel (OK button) acts as a standard left-click.    Right-click functionality: To simulate a right-click, press and hold the center wheel while hovering over the desired item.   

Hi Rayden79.  I am experiencing the same problem.  Did you ever solve yours?  I suspect that it is an issue with a component on the power supply board.

Hi, i am in the process of purchasing several LG digital signage displays and need some more information before i place my order. I need a function like kiosk mode to start a website in full screen mode on device startup. The device would be a LG 43UH5N-E installed is webOS. Is this posswible with the onboard functionallity of webOS or do i need a 3rd Party App ore something? There is no need for a pagerefresh or such things, only display of es simple Website.   thx for help me out.

Please take steps to include Airtel Xtream Play app in WebOS Content Store! In India everyone is using Airtel network and Xtream Play as a bundle recharge offer with it! LG TV is very good and technically advanced! For this mere reason of not having Airtel Xtream Play App, We Customers, need to switch over to other brands! So, it is mandatory and timely, for LG to make Xtream Play available in WebOS TV, otherwise you have to loose your trusted Customers like us!    Please think twice and Consider!!!

Hi, Bought a new C4 OLED but i get black screens randomly when using internal streaming apps or just going back to the home menu. It seems as if WEBOS is crashing and i can only cut power and reboot when this happens... Is it a software or panel issue

Hi, my LG webOS TV TN520S is running  software version 05.45.45 and since then the channel 4 and channel 5 apps are broken. You can start to watch a program but as soon as the first set of adverts start, the app just loops and you cant progress past the adverts. I a wondering if this is because the TV is running the latest version of its software (I've searched for newer versions but none are shown). Has anyone else had this problem and is it possible to install a previous version of the TV's software to see if this resolves the problem.

I purchased an LG 86" UT8050 4K UHD LED Smart TV (2024) from JBHIFI in Australia. The TV was wall-mounted and set up by a local installer. I discovered that my TV has Chromecast built-in. I tried casting music from Roon, but Chrome immediately crashed and the TV shutdown. I tried again and the audio was distorted. I shut down and tried again and the audio stuttered. I tried Chromecasting with Qobuz and Plex and got the same result on audio playing out to my Yamaha RX-V6A and the TV speakers. I then tried to play audio from the Plex App in the LG WebOS. That played fine, without any distortion. Thinking this might have been a result of a hurried setup (the installer did this job "on the run" I reset the TV to factory defaults and set it up again. Everything went smoothly. But the problem with Chromecast persists. First time launching Chromecast the app crashed and the TV shutdown. 2nd try I got distorted audio to the receiver and to the TV speakers. Audio and Video are fine on all other apps. I can see no other faults. I've been Googling this and not seeing much info other than a few threads where people are saying that the LG built-in Chromecast feature does not work. I saw that one person returned his TV and the replacement had the same issue with built-in Chromecast. Most discussions on this issue are hijacked by people using a Chromecast streamer or dongle as opposed to the built-in Chromecast. They often talk about turning off this or that specific Chromecast setting, settings that are not accessible with a TV with built in Chromecast In the WebOs when I look at connected source devices Chromecast is there with a "Chromecast Settings" option. The settings have only one option and that is opt-in on sending crash data to Google. Apparently, Google is not monitoring the issue very closely. I listen to mostly Hi-Res audio. I wonder if the issue is caused by the bitrate of 24-bit Hi Res flac files. I did notice that when I cast audio that was CD quality (16-bit), the distortion did not occur. This is weird though because in the past I have been able to cast 24-bit audio to Chromecast-enabled devices without any problems. My TV says my firmware is up to date. I did not see a prompt to install a firmware update during setup. I've set software and app updates to be automatic. Appreciate any help or even a "Hey, it's not just you, this is a known issue, I've got this problem too".
