My LG web browser stopped playing videos from some websites,  but not all. Finally discovered that "Adaptive Streaming using Javascript" was enabled. I disabled this setting and the problem was resolved. To change the setting,  go to the web browser's "settings" menu.

Hello, I have the same problem as of 10/29/23, before I could play videos in the browser, but after an update I could no longer, my TV model is 55UP7750PSB and the current software I have is "03.36.45" . I tried to search for previous versions of the software but didn't find any, is there a solution for this problem?

I have same firmware, but if you read the faq in the web page, they say will only play on certain browsers, firefox, internet explorer etc. or could be in flash player format which webos wont play.

Hi,

Well I tried signing up to the site to see if I could replicate the issue you are having, but the sign up page just 404s after pressing the sign up button.

There's no need for a sign-up to play videos. It's just an option.

I’ve the same issue here. It used to work and then suddenly stopped, we can not air play, we can not cast easily, no variety for apps.

Honestly, I’ll never recommend LG smart tv to anyone

@RSS Thanks for that interesting feedback. Are you able to post your TV model, the WebOS version and the Browser version please? This may help others with similar issues.

Adaptive streaming solution above does not fix issue here, nor is it fixed by allowing the video file to buffer.  Called LG Support today about issue but received no acknowledgement of issue or definitive solution.  I would try factory reset but entails installing all my apps and signing into them again. For now, I am using the Silk browser on my Firestick to get around issue but this extremely frustrating that it was working before html5 came along, which I suspect contributed to this problem.

      Prime Video unable to update/install on LG TV OLED65G36LA WebOs 8.20.0-710
      By Juicycarrot
      Hi there,
       
      I have an LG smart TV OLED65G36LA (LG OS v03.20.17, webOS TV version 8.20.0-710) , and the Prime Video App was no longer able to update (from Dec 2025) and therefore could no longer be used.
      I have tried uninstalling the app and re-installing, and that was unable to work, so then applied a full reset on the LG TV and so had to reinstall all of my other apps (Apple TV, Netflix, etc etc) which all successfully downloaded so confirmed network connections and setup are all confirmed working.
      When I try to download the Prime Video app, it remains stuck on the download screen and is unable to update.
      Thanks
