I have a strange problem with freeview play and Iplayer on my 55 E6 I need help first is this the correct place to post 
The problem started about 2 months ago 
If i select a BBC program from the past by scrolling through the freeview guide Iplayer starts as usual But when it starts playing there is no picture or sound if subtitles are on you can see the the subtitles going by but no sound of picture.

if i start iplayer using the app UI to watch the same program it works fine 
all other catch up works through the freeview guide 
If i am watching a bbc program and press green to restart the program it works ok also
I have contacted Freeview they told me to contact BBC 
I have contacted bbc iplayer help they told me to contact LG 

I contacted 

link hidden, please login to view
 they sent an engineer he said he would report the issue to LG 
I am told LG said they did not see it as a problem and would do nothing 
I spoke to  again and was told LG tvs do not support Iplayer any more 

I also have a 55uh850v that I use in my cinema as a 3d monitor this tv is olso webos3 this tv has exactly the same problem 
I also have a 49UH610v this works perfectly 
I also have a OLED55B7V this has the freeview guide disappearing problem that is well documented in "LG TV Freeview Play" forum but when its working the Iplayer works ok
I have 70mg fibre broad band and the tvs are on wired ethernet 

I do not know what to do next

      I know this was mentioned before. I'd like to support this.
      WebOS is such a great and versatile system; a real media centre. BUT: I have a number of video files that it simply doesn't play. VLC, e.g. does, but is not available. 
      To me it is such a pity that I have to have a system in parallel (actually a PC!) to play those files, with VLC, and then switch to HDMI to watch the clips on my TV. This doesn't look very much like 2026, as far as I am concerned.
      To give an example, in which nothing is spectacular, and yet it doesn't play:

      Better yet: add something like VLC or at least Dragon. Make it available; even if the warranty was void, I'd prefer to load such an application.
      Thanks for pondering!

      So i have a brand new OLED 65inch, the Sky now APP installed on the tv wont play the UHD content from sky, I do have the right subscription and when i use a amazon fire stick with the Now app installed it will play UHD Content, i just cant figure out why the tv installed app wont play it.  The Tv will play UDH content from other apps installed on the TV so i know its capable just something between the TV and Now app wont allow UHD Content, any ideas???

      On a OLED48B46LA tv how do I select Freeview channels? It seems to keep going to LG channels. If I select Live TV antenna I can put in a channel number eg 1  get BBC One. But if I press channel up, it does not go channel 2 but to the LG channels

      I have an LG43UN71006LB TV. I don't have an option to download the Freeview app. When I search for it in Content it isn't found. However I was told that the app should be available on this model. Would appreciate if anyone could confirm I this is the case and if so why it isn't available to download.
      Thanks
