  1. I have a 43" UJ6300 LG UHD TV, and a 150Mbps fiber circuit from Telus. It works very well, and I am satisfied with most features and picture quality. My one complaint may be a slightly dimmer overall picture to comparable TV's. Probably because I was too lazy to thoroughly read the manual I did not fully understand the meaning of all of the features. I purchased a Roku Streaming Stick 4K+, and noticed an immediate improvement in picture quality. The Roku Stick I bought was mostly to enjoy sports subscriptions which were unavailable on WebOS. I noticed that my Roku Stick immediately switches my "Picture Mode" to "HDR Effect" on my LG UJ6300. I falsely thought HDR Effect was just that, an effect, not actual HDR. I noticed my picture quality was improved even when the Roku Stick was turned off, which seemed impossible. Then I realized my TV was still set to HDR Effect, and that is what is improving picture quality. HDR Effect I believe is HDR10, which my Roku Stick uses. Roku also supports HDR10+ and Dolby Vision programming. I learned that HDR Effect is by far the best setting for most programs broadcast today, as HDR10 has as far as I can see become the de facto standard for High Dynamic Range TV's. Try watching golf, football, baseball, it all looks best on HDR Effect.
  2. I have the LG UJ6300 43" Smart TV and I've had that problem. See my post above from 2/27/20. On my set one need only go to "Settings" on the remote, "All Settings" "General", tab over to the right and select "TV Information" and you should see "Available Internal Storage". Mine is 0.62 GB. That seems perilously low for an advanced UHD smart TV to me. The solution for me is to just cut the power "Just to the TV" for several seconds, and plug it back in and try again. I was receiving the same message, but after restarting the TV by switching off, and unplugging the TV only for 20 or 30 seconds solved to problem. I have had to repeat the process once or twice since then, but it only takes a couple of minutes, and the set has worked like new since. If it happens again, just repeat the process.
  3. I have been using the LG 43" UHD Smart TV with WebOS now for about a year. At first it seemed to run fine and continuously while watching all manner of material. Recently I added a Synology NAS Server to my network, and I've noticed interruptions regarding the "must restart the app to free more memory" while running the Plex app. I have tried various things to resolve the problem but the only thing I have found useful is to cut the power "just to the TV". I have my cables tied neatly together with ties, and as I'm not sure which is for the TV at my power strip, I find it easiest just to pull the plug on back of the TV. This should theoretically free up the memory just on the TV's internal memory. After trying this I have been able to watch any content which was previously stopping to free memory, without any problems for a least a couple of days now. If this happens again, the first thing I will try is unplugging the TV for several seconds and try again.

  5. I'm glad this has been a helpful tip. I have a fairly vast library of movies, many in h.265 (HEVC) which began to fail in Plex. At first I thought it was my server, but I looked up the specs for the TV, and the memory seems perilously low for an advanced Smart UHD TV. I reasoned that it was just the TV memory failing, and one way to be sure is to cut the power completely for a few seconds. I went back and watched several films without fail. I should warn you though, that I have had a repeat of the problem a couple of times, but it only takes a few seconds to correct. Regards, Exeter
