Like, RAM, or hard drive space? I can't see envy you'd need more of either. I'm on my third LG TV over three years, two OLEDs and an LCD, and none of them had ever had an issue with either of those. What are you doing that you need it, or think you might??
-
No, it doesn't.
-
You can't do any of the things on the TV's browser that you'd need right-clicking for anyway. You can't save files, you can't print, etc. A TV's web browser is the least-useful thing on it. What exactly are you hoping to do on it anyway?

screensaver How Do I Customise the Screensaver?
Cody k replied to Sufian Abdullah's question in LG webOS Smart TV Questions
You are very tense about something that isn't an issue if you use the TV the way a TV is meant to be used: watch content on it. But you go be you. Get an inferior TV and feel like you've won. -
No, and it never will be. eARC requires hardware that was not introduced until the 9 series.
-
This is because the TV outputs audio via ARC, or its internal speakers + Optical. Neither of those methods supports TrueHD or any lossless audio. ARC only supports DD+ with Atmos metadata, and Optical won't support Atmos in any form. Your option would be to find a device that connects to your receiver by HDMI, like a 4K Blu-Ray player, which can play media files from an external drive. Or, y'know, buy the movies legitimately.

Netflix app Dolby Vision/HDR
Cody k replied to markorobison's question in LG webOS Smart TV App Questions
You cannot disable Dolby Vision on your TV's Netflix app without losing 4K entirely. They do not provide an HDR10 stream to devices that support DV. What is almost definitely happening is your TV's Dolby Vision settings are probably wrong. Just as with any other input, and with regular HDR content, there are several preset options to choose from for DV. If yours defaulted to one of the Technicolor presets, most people find those to be too yellow. Scroll through them and find one you like. My personal choice is 'Cinema Home' with all of the Motion Smoothing effects turned off. -
HBO NOW apps for the U.S.A.
Cody k replied to PapaJoeSLC's question in LG webOS Smart TV App Questions
The two methods I know of are to cast it from a mobile device with Chromecast, and subscribe to it through Amazon Prime Video, which has an app on the TV. I don't know if Roku or Fire Stick has the app. -

Sony and some other manufacturers also have the app on some of their models. It definitely is not a Samsung exclusive. -
Why can’t I watch HBONow on my LG smart TV?
Cody k replied to Dissatisfied's question in LG webOS Smart TV App Questions
That I couldn't answer as we do all of our subscriptions - currently HBO, CBS AA and Starz - through Amazon. Previously we had Showtime through it as well. The quality has always been excellent. Our Hulu quality has been excellent as well but we've never tried any of the add-ons. We did CBS AA as a standalone on our old Sony 4K TV and the quality was definitely not as good as Amazon's. My info on the HBO comparison comes from people talking about it this past week. -

The issue here is 100% user error. It isn't insulting at all to point that out. My methods are the ones that work for millions of people. Your inability to do what millions of others can do is nobody's problem but yours. -

Cody k replied to Dissatisfied's question in LG webOS Smart TV App Questions
And for the record, I have a C7, so almost the exact same set with the exact same OS. Of I can do this via multiple methods, you could if you'd stop with the bullshit and just follow any of the methods I outlined. -

I tried to help you. I gave you MULTIPLE methods for doing what you want to do. You have been unable to do a basic thing. This is not me being condescending, it's you being unable to manage a basic task.
