  1. By rereading my note, I noticed some words, sentences which could be misunderstood by technical oriented people. Telenet is an internet (streaming) provider. The coaxial connection is still available on older TVs? The signal is analog and is out of the question here. LG Smart TV's can use internet (Wi-Fi or cable) to support the digital (internet) signal. WebOS is OS running on Smart TV's and supports all kind of apps, including TV channel simulation. There are about 30 analog channels, 31-700 (670) digital and 701-999 (299) audio only stations (radio). This apps must be parameterized with a base frequency, frequency step, region code, provider depending on region code (20 is Telenet or Proximus) and so on. Depending on the region code you can set up UK TV channel config, Scandinavian TV sets, etc. Running this apps the first time will generate those 999 stations. The remote unit (channel function) manually switch from one channel to another. The LG screen will change to an old-fashioned TV screen. This works fine on TV 1 but will only find one screen (#1) on the 2nd TV and immediately asks for a regeneration of the channels. (Just done). Whatever I do with the 2nd LG Smart TV (reset, upgrade, power off, etc.) ==> it doesn't help to repair the tuning of apps. It starts from a base frequency and add up a frequency step but couldn't find an analogue or digital channel; Results ==> 0 analog stations found; 0 digital stations found. So, I have two LG Smart TV's, bought the same year (2020), from the same provider, only connected to Wi-Fi (internet) but one is OK and the other one doesn't generate those channels. I don't use antennas, coaxial cable, internet network cable. Thru Wi-Fi the apps searches from a starting frequency and add up a frequency step. Each channel is assigned a number from 1 to 999.. The other TV doesn't do anything accept searching for a signal. and jumping to the next one without assigning a channel. Only channel 1 is assigned even without out a signal. Both TVs contains lots of other apps including Netflix, Wald Disney +, Amazon, TV VLAANDEREN streaming, configuration schemes, etc. This is not a very detailed and technical description of the way LG smart TV simulates a normal TV station, but I believe it is good enough to understand what is going wrong and to find hopefully a solution. Unless the TV is broken. I use it now for Netflix and Walt Disney + straming only. Any advice welcome. LG Smart TV are digital only TV's. Analogue signals are detected with software./some hardware. !!! When I bought the 2nd TV the apps was working fine as well. Suddenly , after an update of the apps the apps couldn't find stations anymore. I used other region codes such as UK, Dannish TV, back to regioncode 20, but it always ends up with 0 stations.

  2. Hi, I bought a LG Smart Tv about 2 years ago. Working fine (TV channels Telenet/Proximus, streaming Netflix, Walt Disney+, etc. <i took over a 2nd LG Smart TV from my father-in-law (similar TV). I started using the 2nd TV as well. Strange issue: streaming was OK but WebOS couldn’t find/locate channel stations (region: Flanders part of Belgium). Whatever parameters I use to search channels (frequency, Flanders region, extensions, etc.) the results were always 0 stations. I could only look at the streaming parts (Netflix, Walt Disney +, Flemish stations and so on, including lots of standard apps. I reinitialized WebOS by using factory default standards but was still impossible to find at least one station of the theoretical 999 available. on Telenet, Proximus frequencies. Both TV have a Telnet PCMCIA card available replacing partly the Telenet digicorder. Those cards must not be used when searching for channels. I still don't understand why both TVs are behaving so differently at setup and channel search functions. They are using the same Wi-Fi and are still connected to a coaxial cable. Is it a malfunction, a different setup, some background parameters not cleared? Any idea, solution very welcome. Kind regards.
