Hi, I have the option to right click and pick the subtitles on my Mac when watching movies in the VLC Player, but I can’t do this on the LG OLED, though. I already renamed the subtitle file to be the exact same as the video file and I did have the SRT file in the same folder where the movie is. However, when I connect the hard drive to the TV, the subtitle still doesn't appear. The format of my hardrive is NTFS. Can anyone please offer some advice?

Using the standard Movie Player

Select the title on the screen giving details 1920 x 1080 etc
Then use the scroll button to roll down and show a new line below
If your movie has a correctly named subtitle file, you will see a SUB button
Click on it and a new window will open in the top right
Firstly a button to turn subs on and off
Selections about the language and the synchronisaton
 

Hope that helps

      By Abhishek_02x
      I am using the lg tv from 2 years and I found an amazing experience till now.
      But I like request about Play box TV app. Please add this app in store section so that I could download it on my tv. 
      It would be helpful if you respond to my email. This app is very demanding now a days as it comes with the excitel broadband service.

      Allow to play old .avi files, please!
      By Digard
      I know this was mentioned before. I'd like to support this.
      WebOS is such a great and versatile system; a real media centre. BUT: I have a number of video files that it simply doesn't play. VLC, e.g. does, but is not available. 
      To me it is such a pity that I have to have a system in parallel (actually a PC!) to play those files, with VLC, and then switch to HDMI to watch the clips on my TV. This doesn't look very much like 2026, as far as I am concerned.
      To give an example, in which nothing is spectacular, and yet it doesn't play:
      Format                                   : AVI Format/Info                              : Audio Video Interleave Format settings                          : BitmapInfoHeader / WaveFormatEx File size                                : 360 MiB Duration                                 : 51 min 6 s Overall bit rate                         : 986 kb/s Frame rate                               : 23.976 FPS Writing application                      : VirtualDubMod 1.5.4.1 (build 2178/release) Writing library                          : VirtualDub build 24259/release Video ID                                       : 0 Format                                   : MPEG-4 Visual Format profile                           : Advanced Simple@L5 Format settings                          : BVOP1 Format settings, BVOP                    : 1 Format settings, QPel                    : No Format settings, GMC                     : No warppoints Format settings, Matrix                  : Default (H.263) Muxing mode                              : Packed bitstream Codec ID                                 : XVID Codec ID/Hint                            : XviD Duration                                 : 51 min 6 s Bit rate                                 : 752 kb/s Width                                    : 512 pixels Height                                   : 384 pixels Display aspect ratio                     : 4:3 Frame rate                               : 23.976 (24000/1001) FPS Color space                              : YUV Chroma subsampling                       : 4:2:0 Bit depth                                : 8 bits Scan type                                : Progressive Compression mode                         : Lossy Bits/(Pixel*Frame)                       : 0.160 Stream size                              : 275 MiB (76%) Writing library                          : XviD 1.1.0 (2005-11-22) Audio ID                                       : 1 Format                                   : AC-3 Format/Info                              : Audio Coding 3 Commercial name                          : Dolby Digital Codec ID                                 : 2000 Duration                                 : 51 min 6 s Bit rate mode                            : Constant Bit rate                                 : 224 kb/s Channel(s)                               : 2 channels Channel layout                           : L R Sampling rate                            : 48.0 kHz Frame rate                               : 31.250 FPS (1536 SPF) Compression mode                         : Lossy Delay relative to video                  : 23 ms Stream size                              : 81.9 MiB (23%) Alignment                                : Split across interleaves Interleave, duration                     : 42  ms (1.00 video frame) Interleave, preload duration             : 500  ms Service kind                             : Complete Main Dialog Normalization                     : -27 dB compr                                    : 0.53 dB dynrng                                   : 0.53 dB dialnorm_Average                         : -27 dB dialnorm_Minimum                         : -27 dB dialnorm_Maximum                         : -27 dB Please, add-on to media player whatever is necessary to play such files!
      Better yet: add something like VLC or at least Dragon. Make it available; even if the warranty was void, I'd prefer to load such an application.
      Thanks for pondering!

      My LG 43UM7600PLB TV does not sees the directories on the external USB drive
      By Andy_Roider
      As per the subject line, I have had a USB drive connected to my television for over four years, but for the past few days it has not been recognising the directories where my films and music are organised, and is displaying EVERYTHING in a single list of over a thousand files.
      It is a 1TB drive (half of the maximum 2TB allowed) with a power supply, formatted as NTFS, and not completely full.
      I have checked the drive and it has no bad sectors. I have tried connecting it to both USB ports and all the files are in the permitted format (avi, mkv, mp4, mp3, etc.).
      I have also tried another 1TB drive, but the result is the same.
      Do I need to reconfigure something in the television settings?
      It would be a significant loss if I cannot resolve this issue.
      Thank you in advance for your responses.

      External USB storage (flash\hdd) how to disable scan\thumbnails\etc
      By mycop
      Greetings.
      A huge problem is connecting an external drive/flash drive to a TV with webos with a large number of files.
      It starts scanning all folders, which can take up to 20 minutes. Which is unacceptably long.
      On the netcast platform, everything was instant. Maybe it creates previews...maybe something else...
      How to disable disk scanning by the webos platform?
