Hallo everyone,
Since 3 months now my LG UHD TV AI ThinQ does not want to play any videos through the browser.

I guess there is an issue with the cookies policy as it seems that the TV does not record/recognize the "accept all cookies" option prompted on the screen when I load the video in the browser.  I click on "accept all cookies" the page reloads but instead of starting the video it shows me again the disclaimer for cookies..

Here is the page I'd like to reproduce: https://www.rainews.it/tgr/vda/notiziari/index.html?/tgr/rainews.html 

 

Thank you and regards, Francesco.

@Francesco Gaetani Most browser offered for use as the "built in" browser "app" in most smart TV's (including LG), are very basic, do not contain all the features and goodies that are in mainstream PC browsers (like Firefox, and Edge etc). So, you will find many things that do not work, and many items that will not load or play.  The other issue is that the browser apps RARELY get updated on smart TV's, so often fall very behind current browser technologies.

Because smart TV's have a browser, and "apps" many owners think they are like a PC, but it is like comparing chalk and cheese.

It my sound very "clunky" but your best method is to use you laptop, and cast the video to your TV.

      Does USB content leave thumbnails via SmartShare on LG TV after removing USB?
      By Wondering
      After viewing photos/videos on a flashdrive plugged into the USB of an LG TV and using SmartShare to view... and then removing the USB and then no longer having access to the TV... I noticed on the flashdrive a new folder called "LG TV" and within what appears to be files that may have been the thumbnails displayed on the TV. My question is... do those thumbnails also remain on the TV as recent history even without the USB plugged in? The LG Smart TV online user guide refers to "Recent" ("To view a list of recently viewed or added content, select Recent). Would thumbnails be there without the source flashdrive?

      MS-Teams online meeting and smart home automation and requires webcam/microphone but TV does not have, neither support USB webcam/mic
      By Xuancong Wang
      Dear LG TV developers,
      I am glad to see that LG Smart TV has a built-in web browser and LG API supports "openBrowserAt" so that my smart home controller can open a web page on the TV. However, nowadays, we also have ms-teams online meeting that is accessible through web browser which the LG TV supports. However, this requires the browser to have a microphone to record audio and to have a webcam for video recording. Also, certain smart-home systems also need built-in microphone to record voice commands so that no additional standalone unit is required next to the TV.
      Unfortunately, LG Smart TV (I have OLED48A1PTA) does not have microphone neither does it support USB mic/webcam. So I am writing this post to suggest that future middle/higher-end LG Smart TV can be equipped with these. Moreover, it might be possible for TV firmware update to add the support of USB webcam/microphone so that they can be used in web browsers for web-based online meeting.
      Thank you very much for your consideration!
      Best regards,
      Xuancong
