  1. Hi. It seems abs-cbn and lg has ended their agreement so there is no longer an iwanttv app. (in all honesty, one of the reasons i got the lg was because of the dedicated iwanttv app). But you can use the web browser instead. It works just as well. Once you login, the website remembers. Just turn the site into a shortcut on your homescreen so you can run it faster. Hope this helps.

  2. Yes, but that is sort of the point.
    YouTube, Plex and Amazon are the most frequently used apps on my TV.  I cannot recall Amazon ever restarting, Plex has not had an issue since about five revisions ago and even then it was only once or twice.  YouTube has been the most unstable app, which to me says it is more of a programming than an OS/hardware issue.  The latest YouTube update hit my TV a couple of days ago and currently it has been behaving itself, having watched over nearly hours worth of videos without an issue.
    In my case, the 3 most used apps for me are netflix, youtube and plex. I have so far no problems with netflix and youtube. But for plex, i encounter stutters and buffers endlessly (source content is streamed via a local server) . While i have yet to encounter app restart issues, I'm looking for how to actually FORCE an app restart. I've been a plex user across platforms and have not had any problems streaming from the same source. But plex for webos gives me grief. I thought a force restart would solve it. My questions are:
    1. How do you force close a webos app? (not just remove it from recents)
    2. How do you reboot the lg smart tv without taking out the plug? (this is unrelated but couldn't find an answer for this anywhere)

    P. S. apologies to the threadstarter for hijacking the thread a bit. Now back to regular programming.
