WebOS 3.0 Apps and Browser Streaming Limitations


MarkG

Recommended Posts

Hi All,

 

I have just purchased my first smart tv LG B6 OLED so I am new and not too familiar with the WebOS functionality.

 

First impressions, love it, but hey thats expected for an OLED screen.

 

I did however struggle to find some basic apps such as Live Radios that would in fact host my local radio stations in New Zealand. I even attempted to stream these using the web browser but it looks as if streaming is not compatible.

 

I skimmed through some earlier posts complaining about lack of Flash player (presumably to combat pirating which makes sense), so i was wondering if there is any update on this? I'd imagine the lack of a Flash Player is the reason to why I cannot stream live music, or is it something to do with lacking CODECs (highly doubt it being such a new model)?

 

Cheers.

      I can stream ABC content using either the iView app on our LG G1 65" OLED, or via the iView Android TV app that is installed on a Chromecast with Google TV that is plugged into one of the G1 HDMI ports. If I stream content using the app on the TV, every few minutes there's a momentary (fraction of a second) interruption to both sound and video. If I stream the same content using the app on the Chromecast, I get no such interruptions. Both TV and Chromecast are using wired Ethernet connections to the same switch, so I can't see that these interruptions are due to a network problem, or I'd see them on both devices. It would seem to be a problem with the app provided on the TV. Other streaming services that we access via apps on the TV (Netflix, Stan, Amazon Prime, etc) do not show the same problem.

      In the favorites list, the last favorite is added at the end of the list. How to change/sort the sequence of the favorites ?

      webOS updated, I think to 2023, on my C2 a couple of days ago. Since then the News option on the Sky News app no longer works, instead timing out. The Weather and Climate options still work, though.
      I have deleted and reloaded the Sky News app, but the problem remains.
      Does anybody have any suggestions of what I might try to get this working again, or is this something for LG, or Sky, to fix?

      In the specifications of this LaserTV it is shown that WebOS 6.0 should be installed on this device.
      The latest Device Firmware Version is 3.01.02 and i am missing the RTL+ App (Germany) which should be available with WebOS 6.0 
      So any info when there will be a "real" WebOS 6.0 available on the Cinebeam HU915EQE?
