  1. On your remote control you press the Settings button (cog icon) then choose All Settings (at the bottom of the list - it might appear as 3 dots) then under General you should find Reset to Initial Settings.

    This should set things back to factory defaults.

  2. I was having the same problem with YouTube (mostly), in that it looked like it was dropping the internet connection.

    I have both Ethernet and WiFi turned on, and swapped out each to see what makes a difference. Not much it seems!

    After visiting the Network Settings yet again I turned on IPv6 in the Wired Connection (Ethernet) option. This seems to have fixed the problem for me (at the moment).

    PS. I don't like my TV to just go into standby mode so I turn Quick Start off meaning my TV will hopefully really turn off and reset things a bit better each time I turn the TV on again.

    Interestingly I also noted that the currently installed version of ABC iView on my LG E8 is 4.8.3 and that the LG content store on the TV indicates that 5.4.0 is the latest version available

    My iView app updated to 5.4.0 on (15/3/21) my TV is the LG OLED65C8PTA. 

    I also mostly get sound breakup occuring, although I have seen the screen blink on the odd occasion.

    I can stream ABC content using either the iView app on our LG G1 65" OLED, or via the iView Android TV app that is installed on a Chromecast with Google TV that is plugged into one of the G1 HDMI ports. If I stream content using the app on the TV, every few minutes there's a momentary (fraction of a second) interruption to both sound and video. If I stream the same content using the app on the Chromecast, I get no such interruptions. Both TV and Chromecast are using wired Ethernet connections to the same switch, so I can't see that these interruptions are due to a network problem, or I'd see them on both devices. It would seem to be a problem with the app provided on the TV. Other streaming services that we access via apps on the TV (Netflix, Stan, Amazon Prime, etc) do not show the same problem.

    Yes. I've noticed this also...

  5. Unfortunately my LG smart TV (OLED65C8PTA) does NOT allow you to change the TV channel once recording has started. It warns me that recording will STOP if I change channels.

    It is good if you are going to bed or going out, and will not be present when the recording happens. 

    To have this functionality you would need a twin tuner setup. Which Tv's don't generally have. 

    There might be dedicated devices which allow this. DVD recorders etc...

    I have an oled 48 lg and cannot pause or rewind live tv . basically there aren't any buttons  on the remote for this,I had a Panasonic before which worked fine with this external HDD.Will a universal remote control cure this?

    Without the model number I would only be guessing at what you need to do for your particular TV.

    Recording and pausing live TV, which is the same thing really, will only work if you have a proper USB disk device plugged in. I guess this is because the TV does not have enough internal storage to record very much of anything. 

    Once you have plugged in your USB disk (with enough storage available) do the following:-

    • Press the Input Device button on your remote. (picture 1) On my remote this a button with a plug picture on it.
    • Keep scrolling down till you get to "All Inputs" and hit the OK button. This will open up a new screen showing all the Active Input devices. (picture 2)
    • Now choose your USB Disk device. Mine is called (Cruzer Slice). Hit the OK button
    • You should now see a screen that allows you to Format the disk (picture 3)
    • Once you have formatted the USB disk - go back to live TV
    • Hit the Down Arrow button on your remote (it may be labelled differently on your TV). This will pop up the Live Recording menu on the bottom left of your TV (picture 4)
    • Scroll across (Right Arrow) to Start Live Playback (picture 4)
    • Hit the OK Button.
    • NOTE. If your USB disk is incapable of recording live TV you will get the message in (picture 5). This means that you can't use this USB thumb drive you need a faster USB disk drive.

    If all goes well you should now be setup for recording live TV.
