Signify has now released a Hue sync app for recent Samsung TV's. It is up to LG to follow up on this for recent LG models.

Btw, the adds on this LG site are messing up everything. The screen keeps jumping and it's even hard to type a reply. Why are there adds on a userforum?

Yes they have released an app for Samsung TV's, but the price is insanely high. I mean Ambilight was a very nice gimmick but I'm not sure if I'm willing to pay $130 for an app that just controls my lights.

My own LG TV is way too old I guess but maybe it is possible yes.

I think their reasoning for this is that it replaces the HUE synch box which costs even more than 130. A positive side to the app is that you would be able to use the TV's own mediaplayer apps with ambilight which is not possible with the sync box as it needs an external source for playback.

Yup, I guess their thinking is based on the sync box pricing. It's funny that Hue Sync app for Mac and Windows is competely free (for now) and that's why the TV app feels like ripoff.

I saw some forum, the apps once bought  installed in tv cannot logout. When buy new one need pay again....

So still no cost-effective solution available to sync Hue lights (led strip) with LG (OLED) TV?

--> Time to switch to Samsung then?

This situation is happening in Samsung this moment. Let see lg can get any difference on this app flexible benefits.

Yes. That is support not a smart tv. Now most likely intergrade application and smart tv price same with external tv box. If they not revamp the design will be estimated in market.

I actually have the hue sync box and its not gimicky at all and works well, but I fully expect LG to actually pay the licence or broker a deal as the philips oled use lg panels to give users this for free.

For free... Seriously ? 😂

Keep dreaming...

      Hello,
      I’m French sorry for my poor english
      I was wondering if it’s possible to disable simplink (or only auto sync on) only on 1 HDMI device.
      I have an LG C1, multiple HDMI devices which work perfectly with simplink, except an LG Blu-ray 4K player (UP970).
      When I turn on a device, it turns on the TV, great! But if the Blu-ray
      player was the last device I used, and I turn everything off, and then
      I turn on a device, the TV then turns on and shows first the HDMI
      Blu-ray player input (with no signal), then it shows the HDMI input of
      the device I turned on, and finally the Blu-ray player turns on and
      the TV switches back to the HDMI Blu-ray player input...
       
      Any ideas on how to fix this?
      Thank you!

      I have LG 65C1,  Denon x4300h(arc monitor 1 was broken, but monitor 2 is working ),
      and what I would like to know is,
      can LG TV's autopower sync works?
      I mean I want to turn on TV using  the LG remote control,
      then my Denon x4300h could turn on automatically,
      when I turn off TV, then Denon turn off automatically.
      I tried many ways to test it, I open all the functions about hdmi control, hdmi cec, simplink, autopower sync...
      but it still doesn't work,
      how could I solve it?
      Or LG TV  just can't do it?
      Thanks a lot!

      Hi, 
       
      I've just bough LG HBS-730 bluetooth headset with the hope that I can connect it to my LG TV LB650V via LG Sound Sync (wireless).
       
      However the TV does not recognise the bluetooth headset and doesn't show up in the list of available devices.
       
      Can anyone confirm of please let me know if this is possible ?
       
      Thanks,
      Optimus
