Question: files on USB device shown as ._xxx.jpg
To have a picture show on my new LG OLED55B87LC I've connected an external USB 3.0 hard disk (formatted with MS-DOS FAT32 on my iMac) that I've filled with hundreds of pictures from my Fotos App. But when I open this drive on the TV the jpg pictures (numbered 1.jpg to 999.jpg) show up as ._1.jpg to ._999.jpg. When I scroll down at the end the list then the real jpg`s appear. So it looks like there's a copy of each file on this drive starting with ._ ?? And all of them can't be shown on the TV - they look faulty ? I've tried out with another drive / USB stick - just the same problem. Does anyone experience the same problems ? Do USB devices have to be formatted in a special way ? Any idea how to solve this ?
Ah - and beside this strange thing - is it normal that it last that long for the system of the TV to create all the thumbnail pictures to show on the TV ? When I scroll through a long list of pictures it lasts always a few seconds until the icons of the pictures really show the contents. This is really annoying because it makes the feature useless if I need several minutes to find a picture I'm searching for. Why is it that slow ? Is the USB connection only with 2.0 Standard ? Or is it a performance problem of WebOS ?By rologoetz, in LG webOS Smart TV Questions

Network connection issues. LG Content store doesn't connect.
I did a refresh of my LG TV 3 days ago. Sold the old LG 47" 3D LED TV and bought new 55" LG Super UltraHD TV with WebOS. I believe, the biggest con of this new TV is WebOS. Its totally frustrating. Sorry for WebOS fans. It isn't that smart and functional they way it looks. The problem I having since 3 days and being a network engineer, I am unable to solve a network issue myself which is even more frustrating for me. Ok, let me explain the issue. The TV when installed was connected to LAN cable to my router which has direct internet connection. The TV works and none of the apps were working. Basically TV wasn't able to connect to internet via apps. If i open web browser, it was working fine with all webpages showing correctly. I'll skip the part of contacting LG support which was useless. All troubleshooting steps like resetting, formatting, changing time zone, location, region was done but no luck. Finally I connected the TV via mobile hotspot and it just worked which gave me the clue that some ports are being blocked by my ISP or router. My internet setup is this way. Internet cable from ISP -> ISP Modem (can do NAT and work as router) - WiFi Router (NAT, DHCP, etc) -> all LAN clients. I put my LG TV in DMZ, opened all ports, etc but no luck. Then I converted my ISP modem as router and connected the LG TV directly to it and it started working..!!! My WiFi Router is TP-Link Archer C7 and I was using stock firmware. Thought it was creating issues and I installed DD-WRT, Open-WRT but no luck at all. The apps which were installed in TV when TV was connected directly to modem are still working fine. Youtube, Plex, Netflix, etc all are working but when I open LG Content Store, it just refuses to load. I am not sure what wrong my TP-Link router is doing. There is something wrong with the LG TV content store. If it requires to open ports, then I would like to know which ones. Sorry for the long port, may be my frustration of 3 days with no luck.!!By akhil7j, in LG webOS Smart TV Discussion

Question: Unable to play FLAC files from PC server
I am unable to play or see any FLAC files from my PC connected in my home network. The Music application does not see at all any FLAC files in the server folders (runnning Windows 10 Pro)., MP3 works fine. Putting FLAC files on an external USB device (like an USB stic) works, but not network sharing. Any suggestions?

Question: No Universal Control option in device connector
Dears, While trying to set up universal control for my surround sound (so I dont need the extra remote) I've been facing the following difficulty. When I go through the steps in device connector I never get the option for set universal control. After simplink (which is off) I just have the option "done" no next to set up manufacturer to control it via the "universal" remote function on my magic remote. Device: Oled55c7v-z + magic remote Tried already: Factory reset, change service location, adding different devices (never does the option appear), hard power cycle, and disconnecting and connecting the devices.By Erich Maritz, in LG webOS Smart TV Questions

Issues connecting the emulator or installing via app manager
Hey devs, I'm setting up the dev enviroment for webOS since 2 days now and seems to get to an dead end. I followed this tutorial http://webostv.developer.lge.com/develop/building-your-first-web-app-webos-tv/ to step 6 which is the 'ares-install com.myproject.app' part. The CLI output: Trying to connect the webOS IDE: Trying to install via App Manager: I have the feeling that these are different issues, but can't get a clear overview about whats the problem. I am using - webOS TV Emulator v4.0.0 - VirtualBox 5.2.12 - WebOS IDE Build 1532 - Windows 10 So far I tried: - Changing the IP and Port in any combination you could get from IP [127.0.0.1, VirtualBox-IP which is shown in ipconfig] and port [6622, 22]. If you need further information, let me know. Hoping someone can help me out at this point. Edit: No need for help anymore. I tried to set something working up for 16 hours of worktime now. Including attempts with windows, ubuntu 16, ubuntu18, different solutions from the internet. Everything failed 😕 Stopping on this project now.By Flugsaurier, in LG webOS Developers
