Hi guys, i recently bought the  Lg 42LB650V and yesterday it automatically updated, and i have a problem, when i am using a app for log time, like watching video on youtube, after a while it say's me something like "Out of Memory, app closed". Please help me what can i do. It displayed this error before the update but never in the youtube app, only when browsing. and i have another problem, when i am watching a video on the web browser, after 10-15 minutes, it displays the same out of memory error, and i watched the same video on my friend's lg smart tv that hasn't got webOs, has got the old Lg smart tv OS, cinema 3d , and i watched the complete video without any error, and did lot of other stuff and didn't got the out of memory error. I bought this LG thinking that it's a new model so it will not have problems, if i can watch in the old TV, why not in the new TV. Please help me, i am very worried because i will have to change the TV because of the same error that i got in my Sony Smart TV that i returned to the store. HEEEEELP Please. :(  :(  :(  :(  :(  :(  :(

im just repeating myself: GET A NEW ROUTER! It solved 99% "out of memory" problems! Seriously. I used to get the "out of memory" probably 10-20 times a day using SmartShare. And now after getting new

Just got off the phone to lg support. I was told the web browser shuts down when attempting to stream video ON PURPOSE! Furthermore, once you stream anything from the internet, the cache fills up, does not clear, and prevents the installed apps from functioning properly.  I was told that the OS is a web browser NOT a web streaming service and if they allow customers access to stream video they will be in breach of their contractual agreement to the companies who have apps on the TV. This clearly doesn't happen on tablets or phones, so their logic for creating a sub par product is utter bollocks. I specifically asked the salesman if I could stream video from the internet and was told absolutely yes. When I pointed this out to Lg customer service they re-iterated that a web browser does not confer the ability to stream video. This is misleading the customer, and effectively censoring and filtering internet content.  This must stop! 

How come Samsung TVs don't have this problem?

I had the problem for 5 years with 2 separate Tv's. It is any Smart App like iPlayer or YouTube. The problem is that the memory cache is not managed/cleared properly. Thus the only LG advice is turn off TV for a while then turn it on again.

I have an external HD D for recording and playing programmes which works  fine, but definitely had not resolved the Out of Memory errors

I have now spoken to the retailer I purchase it from as it's still under Warrantee, and got them to admit that as LG cant fix the known error, and as i have proof (video of the error appearing multiple times on multiple occasional,),  that the TV is not Fit for Purpose; from the Sale of Goods act. The Smart TV functionality keeps failing with the out of memory error, so TV is not providing promised functionality. Using this argument I am getting a refund for the TV and will never buy an LG TV again.

If under warranty, suggest trying the same approach.

I have exactly the same issue when watching some video over SmartShare (using DLNA connection). It was perfectly fine for a few days, but now after a few minutes of watching some medium quality content (not heavy on a bandwidth, etc) message appears: "Out of memory. App closed". Youtube works fine. Please solve this immediately!

Video is on my computer (mac), with media server running on it and sharing content via wifi to router, router has wired connection to 55LB63. 

SmartShare crashes ("Out of memory. App is closed") after a while (~10minutes) of watching a movie, no matter how big the file is (1080p, 720p, etc...). However, if you pause it for a while, then SmartShare continues to work longer then 10minutes, but crashes later. However, SmartShare does not crash when playing the same files from USB. 

 

It used to work flawlessly for a few days, and suddenly all this came up. 

 

Any thoughts? Related to firmware update maybe (04.30.16)?

Ok, it looks that there is a way around "out if memory. app is closed" message from SmartShare app.


It has been 3hrs non stop full hd movie via DLNA without any crash, here is what i did:


 


 - Fully restart media servers, I use Serviio and plex mostly), re-connect them through 'device connector' app.


 - Play the movies/media directly from 'device connector' app which directly leads to folders on media server (not the sort of compiled list of all movie/etc as SmartShare does).


 


I assume this might be a temporary solution, because when i ran SmartShare for the 1st time (6days ago) it was all fine for a couple of days and then the problems began (out of memory). Since now all is kinda newly reconnected -I'im just guessing - the TV just dumped some used memory and lets wait for couple of days to see if it stays fine.

Lg's WebOS sucks, my friend has an old lg smart tv from february 2013 with Netcast, and it works like a ferrari, and it hasn't got any bugs or problems, it also has html5 and also Flashplayer, i often go to his house and watch some online movies and it doesn't stop, and the same movie at the same webpage when i watch it, after 10 o 15 minutes it says "Out of memory, app is closed" WTF? I am non satisfied with the new WebOS, FAILED EXPERIMENT FROM LG, LIKE THE SAME HAPPENDED WITH PALM'S WEBOS, AND THEN HP'S WEBOS AND NOW WITH LG'S WEBOS.

I knew there was major memory leaks with this OS.  Unreal that LG hasn't patched this yet.  Shame on them.  This happens to me, when watching Netflix, Amazon, or DLNA after a few shows.  Its so bad, that I literally have to wait 10 seconds before it registers a click.  You know the only solution, turn the TV off for about 20 seconds and start again.  Basically, rebooting your TV.  Its pretty pathetic that you should have to reboot your TV after watching a few shows.

 

I have heard they are releasing WebOS 2.0 on their 2015 model TV's.  They say the OS is fast.  I certainly hope that they allow the 2014 TV's to upgrade to 2.0.

Yes and LG doesn't beleive us either, i sayed them that my friend has a 2013 model with netcast and he can watch movies in the web browser without any problems and when i watch the same movie at the same website the tv after 5 minutes sayes out of memory, and they replied me that it's impossible that a 2013 tv with netcast works beter than a 2014 with webOS,shame on LG, they are just crazy , i'm planning to make a video comparing the 2013 tvs with 2014 and upload it on youtube to prevent people from buying tvs from LG, i'd recommendd them more Samsung, even the cheapest of their tv has a quad core processor and it has more support, LG is a dumb company.

I have a 2012 LG 55LM7600.  Its not WebOS, but some other OS.  It doesn't lock up like WebOS does but it isn't the fastest either.  I like WebOS better, but the memory leaks have to stop. 

 

Keep in mind that this is version 1.0.  Lets hope with 2.0 these issues are resolved.  if not, I may not purchase another LG TV.  I have been loyal to them.  I own 3 LG TV's.

The memory doesn't leak, it's not a material or like a liquid, the problem is that the OS itself uses too much memory and the apps apart from youtube are programmed in a way that they use memory that they cannot refresh it, the web browser is the worst of them, even if you visit a webpage with very small content , it closes due to memory error, webOS has to be fixed. The youtube app is the only that works nicely and smoothly.

      Video Conferencing Evolved
      By News Reporter
      Love it or hate it, video conferencing has become essential to the way we work today. But despite the advanced technology available to the office worker in the 21st century, the experience still leaves much to be desired. For every “salary person” fed up with spotty connections, terrible audio and out-of-focus webcams, there’s an easier, more productive way to conduct video calls and meetings.

      Introducing LG One:Quick Works, a powerful all-in-one video conferencing solution with an intuitive user-friendly design for everyone who hates video conferencing. The ideal productivity tool for remote work era, LG’s category-creating innovation brings greater efficiency and sleek, modern styling to businesses of all types and sizes.

      Feel Like You’re in the Same Room with Smart Auto Focus Function
      The meeting experience is on a whole new level with One:Quick Works due in no small part to the impressive performance of its camera and microphone. The high-gain mic can clearly capture the voice of a presenter seated or standing up to six meters away and employs noise cancellation to minimize most unwanted background sounds. With Smart Auto Focus, the 3,840 x 2,160 resolution camera quickly tracks and automatically focuses on the speaker. Virtual meetings take on a whole new level of satisfaction when everyone knows who’s talking and what’s being said.

      Compatible with Popular Video Conferencing Apps for More Flexibility
      One:Quick Works supports a variety of video conferencing and collaboration apps to give users more ways to make the most of their meetings. Meeting participants can use LG’s preinstalled One:Quick Remote Meeting application or install Webex, Zoom and Teams using the shortcuts conveniently located on the onscreen launcher. For apps not on the launcher screen, meeting hosts can simply go into the Conference App Store to find and install the video conferencing application of their choice.

      Wireless Screen Sharing at the Push of a Button
      The complementary One:Quick Share allows presenters to easily connect their laptops and notebooks to compatible LG digital signage devices wirelessly. With its internal Wi-Fi antenna, the diminutive dongle offers effortless screen sharing and the makes the workspace free of cable clutter. With its Split View feature, One:Quick Share can connect to and display content from up to four devices simultaneously, making it the best choice for teamworking while remote conferencing.

      To experience video conferencing the way it was meant to be, check out the LG Information Display channel and today. And because LG doesn’t think remote conferencing needs to be dull, these lighthearted, informative videos will not only endear you to the One:Quick series, they’ll hopefully leave you wanting LG’s remote meeting solution for your own workplace.

      LG Wins AutoSens 2020 Vision Award for Collaboration With Mercedes-Benz
      By News Reporter
      LG Continues to Push the Limits of Future Mobility with Advanced ADAS Technology

      SEOUL, Nov. 25, 2021 — LG Electronics (LG) and Mercedes-Benz AG were named joint winners this week at the annual AutoSens Awards, a global celebration of autonomous driving and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS).
      Every year the AutoSens conference recognizes companies for innovations in six categories of which LG was nominated in two: 2020 Vision Award and Hardware Development of the Year. The 2020 Vision Award was bestowed to LG and Mercedes-Benz in recognition of their influence, sustainability, contribution to the industry and inspiration to future technologies. The Hardware Development of the Year award was given to LG for successfully commercializing its front multipurpose camera technology beyond the concept stage. LG and Mercedes-Benz have been on ADAS camera technology for the past seven years, seeing the fruits of their labor commercialized in the new sedan which launched last month.
      First started in 2015, the AutoSens Awards celebrates the best innovations and innovators in ADAS and autonomous vehicle technology. Every year, representatives from automakers, suppliers, research labs and academia take part in AutoSens online communities, conferences and training modules, exhibition events and workshops to better understand the fast-growing autonomous vehicle industry, which could not exist without ADAS technology.
      Dr. Park Young-kyung, a Vision AI expert at LG, and Dr. Benjamin Marx of Mercedes-Benz’ multi-purpose camera team accepted the award and delivered a speech where they described the rewarding experience of working together for many years to develop a camera solution that improved real-life safety and met the strict European NCAP safety requirements. The state-of-the-art technology developed by the two companies is capable of taking advantage of deep learning and multi radar sensors to deliver significantly more environmental data to the central processing unit for analysis. More data results in better analysis and greater safety.
      “Demonstration value to our automotive customers is the ultimate reward for LG,” said Dr. Kim Jin-yong, president of the LG Vehicle component Solutions Company. “Being honored together with Mercedes-Benz is very meaningful to LG as we strive to contribute toward innovation in future mobility.”

      photo and video app not following symbolic link on win 10 pc
      By kevin knauss
      The symbolic link within the PC's Pictures  folder is displayed by the LG Webos Photo app as a folder, but when clicked, the app says that the device is not connected. The existing folders under Pictures on the PC do work using the LG Webos Photo app. The symbolic link works properly on the PC itself, so it's not a problem with creating it using mklink. Any ideas? Thanks.

      Problem with interlaced resolution
      By Jasmin Rašljanin
      I recently bought a UHD tv 65UP75003. I'm not sure, but I think there was a problem after the software upgrade. The TV is connected via an HDMI cable to a DTV receiver that sends 1080i resolution and the problem is in the horizontal line that travels from top to bottom. The line is not visible at progressive resolution. What I did: Reset the TV, receiver, bought a new high speed HDMI cable ...
      Please help and what to try next?
