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.

      Hello,

      I just bought a brand new LG Oled G3 2 weeks ago. For some reason, I had to reset to factory settings today and now I can't load User agreements. I tried with cable, wifi and 4G hotspot and it still can't load...
      I tried the DNS setting as well... Nothing works. Basically, I can't use netflix, prime, youtube, and can't download any apps on the TV... This is frustrating. Shoud I return it ?

      Thanks a lot !

      Brand new LG TV (WebOS 8x) WILL NOT stay off when turned off with the remote?  Out of the box, connected to internet, seems to have been updated, and working fine.  But when I hit the power off with the remote, the TV reports 'Life is Good' seems to turn off, i.e. go into standby, and then a few seconds later, turns back on.  If the device connected to the TV on the last active HDMI port is OFF, I get the No Signal warning.  So I know the active HDMI input is not generating any signal.  I want to believe that any other device on any other HDMI port might be an issue? But then the TV would switch to that HDMI port, no?  This is really an issue!  If I use the phone app I can turn off the TV and it seems to stay off, at least does not come back on in a few seconds like the remote?  If I send 'standby' via HDMI-CEC, that seems to work as well, the TV seems to stay in standby mode.  This a bug?

      It is impossible to install some apps for regional TV channels because the browser is incompatible. How do I update the browser or how do I install a different browser on my TV ? Downloading a file is not supported.  Automatic update is active. Thanks in advance.

      Hi - I have a strange issue where I choose my computer connected via HDMI to my LG C7 TV - the screen has an orange color.
      This has only been happening recently and no other channel is affected. TV/Netflix etc channels all totally fine.
      Any ideas how to fix this?
      Thanks!
