I have one thing you could try. It looks like the LG tv also supports NTFS. What you could try is use an NTFS formatted HD to see if it is possible to record more clips. Maybe the NTFS implementation is better than the FAT implementation in WEB OS.

A long time ago I also had this problem (but I don't think it was with the LG tv). What I had to do was set the screen mode on 'game' or 'movie'. This way the tv doen't process the image and the delay is minimal.

Hope this helps.

You can get the inputs on the large menu bar at the bottom of the screen so you can switch easy. You can move a menu item so it appears on the first screen and you don't have to scroll the menu bar.

Don't use wifi, try a cable?

But you could remove the HD from the LG tv (when it's off) and put it in a computer. There you can create a subdirectory and store some of the files in it.

Maybe the LG tv wil look into the subdirectories and you can still use them or it is a place to store older clips you don't want to remove.

Maybe it the number of files in a single directory that reach a maximum value.

Is it possible to move some of the 400 files to an other directory? Does it then works as expected?

While installing the TV you have said you have cable and after this you probably skipped installing the channels. Now when you turn on your tv you see static.

What you could is select a set-top box as a input device. This way when you turn on you tv you will get 'not connected' and a black screen but no static.

I have no problem pairing my iPhone 6s with my LG tv.

Is your tv on the same network? Maybe your router has two networks for wireless and wired.

Can your phone see your LG tv? You can use the program 'Fing' for this. You can find it here

Hope this helps.

WebOS uses FAT32 for usb drives and the limit for this kind of drives is 2TB

But going to the computer, finding the item you want to watch, queueing it up and then going to the TV seems a little time consuming when you can just search in the Plex app on the TV itself.

I only do this if I don't know the title of the movie. If you know what you want to see, you can do that on the TV. If you change filters, type part of a name, I find typing on a keyboard and using a mouse faster on the computer.

But of course, YMMV 🙂

Plex knows, for many movies, what kind of movie it is. It also has the ability to filter you movies on for example Year, Genre, Rating, Director, Actor, Country, Studio.

If you filter on Genre you can select (in my case) on Actie, Action, Adventure, Animatie, Animation, Avonturen, Avontuur (that was only the A :-).

So Plex collects al kind of information on the Movies which you can use to filter them. Or you can add information manually. On the Plex app on the LG TV I can not search by directory.

I can do that on my computer (in the Plex program). There I have the option to browse by folder. If I really want to search for something I find it easier on the computer. Then, after I started the Plex program on my TV, I can start playing the movie on my TV from my computer. 

There is a native app for Plex that works great or you can use the build in DNLA player with servers like Serviio

There are multiple post on this. I don't think there will be a flash player on the LG Smart TV's

Apple stopped supporting Flash on iPhone and iPad before LG did.  Even Adobe will stop  supporting flash

It would have been such a helpful feature if I can add favorite channels to "My Channels" menu as I am sick and tired of browsing the channels on STB. The channels I watch are too far away from one another in the channel line up.

Sometimes you can group your channels in the STB, make a list of favorites.

1. I couldn't find any setting in the STB to change resolution. It's a FHD Set Top Box for sure. I should be getting 1080p. I tried many FHD channels but it shows 720p there

It looks like you have to be in the Main Menu -> Installation -> System Setting and than HD Resolution. But you could have an other STB.

5. Which app? Amazon Prime? I downloaded it and  even logged in with my Prime Account  immediately after getting the TV. But I couldn't add shows from the Prime App to  the My Content page

I don't have the app so I can not help you with that. But 'My Content' (in mine language 'My Programs' I think) can only be used for antenna signals.

Just like you can not record programs (int Time Machine) if you don't have an antenna signal. It just doesn't work with a STB. 

5. You should download an app from the store for that, but I don't know if that is available everywhere.

7. No, for me, you can not do that. If you install the STB correct you can access functions from it with the Magic Remote but, in my case, it is not as easy as with the remote from the STB. You can do a lot, but not everything.

Most of the time I use the remote of the STB which I could program to work with the LG TV (volume, on/off). Only when I use apps from the LG TV I use the Magic Remote. If I only want to change a channel or the volume I use the remote close to me :-)

HBO GO like many of the other Premium channels require Adobe Flash. OS 3.0 doesn't support Flash, so we the consumers get screwed. I should have done more research before I bought my LG. I love the picture quality, but I also bought this "Smart" TV so I could drop the Roku. Lesson learned ;-)

What you should do is ask HBO to create an HBO GO app on LG smart tv's.

Yep, just set up my OneDrive and Plex Premium account and now can't use it on my TV!? how bloody annoying.

Would be nice to hear of any update from LG on this...

The Plex app is not made by LG, I think you need to contact the people at Plex.

Normale you change the channels with the remote control which comes with the STB.

But, you can change the Magic remote which comes with the LG. In the connection manager you can tell the TV that a satellite receiver is connected. It will ask the type of receiver and now you should be able to control it with the magic remote. At least, it did it for me when I got a STB for IP TV. LG did a very good job with this feature.

Maybe you can connect the microSD from the GoPro to a NAS, a DNLA server or put it in a raspberry pi and they do the conversion for you.

Or you can connect the GoPro to one of those.

I have noticed the LG Smart TV has a lot of features (media player, web browser, photo viewer) that looks great but are a bit rudimental. I used them, but after a while you find better solutions. It's not only LG, you see it on other systems. I have a photo camera that can play music on a tv when showing pictures 😀. Never used it. It is very simple to add features, it hard to make them useful. 

The FAT32 limit of 32GB was on Windows 2000. It can be formatted larger they say. Not that this changes the 4GB file size.

It would be easier if PTP worked.

You can read about exFAT on the site of Microsoft

It is not free.

Can't you format the microSD card to FAT32 and use that in your new GoPro? The only problem could be the 4Gb file limit.

Sorry, my mistake. I didn't read your message properly. 

I noticed the LG TV plus app got updated some time ago and I can now watch pictures and movies from my phone. Maybe you can use the app to suggest to the developers to add this feature.
