Subtitles aren't appearing for certain shows(eg. Big Bang theory).NO option to change audio language,video quality. Certain shows are like watching snapshots at 10s interval(check Homeland). Cricket matches are having slow frames per second although i have good bandwidth and fps on my tv(LG UJ652T).  NO VIP option also.

Yeah, its has a lot of bugs. Thankfully I was able to watch Game of thrones wothout any issues. I also noticed no subtitles on the big bang theory. 

Cricket matches are working fine for me. 

Homeland is playing fine with subtitles .

This is certainly very concerning. What's the average video quality on your Hotstar TV app? 

I think these issues are only temporary as it's a newly launched app. An update might be all that's needed. I also second George's suggestion to contact the Hotstar's customer care executive.

Too buggy, cant use magic cursor on app, have to use arrow keys. Thank god game of thrones if working flawlessly 

Sorry to hear the app is not living up to expectations, the best thing to do would be to use Hotstar's contact page to let them know of the deficiencies and ask them when they are planning on pushing out an updated version.

This is the worst app that I have ever seen. I couldn't watch a single premium content on my TV. My yearly subscription has been wasted. Such a pathetic service hotstar and LG.

@sashank no option for audio change. Most of the national geographic documentaries are play in Telegu. But I want hindi or English..pl. LG update the app with these requirements.

Unfortunately LG do not produce the app, its production is entirely down to Hotstar so if there is a problem you will need to give them feedback directly via their website.

      LG Can you actually answer forum questions because many people want answers
      By The Old Man
      Hey LG 
      Can you actually answer forum questions because many people want answers,
      and really support your products.

      Even me I have asked question but nothing zilch, zit.
      So we buy but nil zit, zero help from you
      Product such as TV's are limited use and life. 
      Playback support and updates are really bad (Only bare minimum support in TV's)
      Seriously this does not make people like me want to purchase your products again
      I am seriously looking at other makers to purchase
      It is a shame because you have such a great product
      Yes I am NOT happy

      LG SIMPLINK keeps turning back on since webOS 23 update. Auto Power Sync missing.
      By Flavio_S
      On LG OLEDs. You go on and disable SIMPLINK. Fine. But everytime you turn on your HDMI device it enables itself back again. This happens because they have disables two key features that were present in previous OSs, as you can see clearly here
      link hidden, please login to view (they even put screencaps of the menus where you see the missing options in the 23) These functions are Auto Power Sync and Auto Device Detection.
      Man updates are supposed to add functionalities not the other way around. It's very annoying to turn on your TV and have your AVR turn on without you wanting to.

      Anyone found a solution for this problem?
