Channel 5 shows this when it is running on disaster recovery. You may have heard that there was a fire at the company that does playout for many UK channels. Channel 4 has had it worst and has fallen off air several times, and it's music channels (Box etc) are simulcasting a sustaining service. Channel 5 isn't as badly hit, but it is still on backup and that's what the square tells us.

As for what's happened, depending on what rumour you believe, either the sprinklers fried a server or three, or the fire systems created a vacuum to put out the fire and that created an electromagnetic pulse which fried a bunch of equipment. Either way, there's no end it sight yet and Red Bee (the playout company) aren't giving any dates for a fix.

      By Derek Weselake (WEZ)
      Hey there,  I have had a  OLED55B6P for ten months and I love it but

      I have a problem all a sudden, just today it starts to show a black screen with fire works every minutes if I don't press a button on the remote.

      I have no eco mode on, no power save modes on, TV firmwire is up to date, and tried turning off on and on the tv.

      anyone know how to fix?

      Feature Request: Boot LG WebOS TV Directly to Home Screen Instead of Wallpaper
      By tomatowarden
      Hey everyone, I've been using my LG WebOS TV for some time now, and there's a small but impactful change I'd love to see. Currently, when the TV is turned on without an HDMI input, it defaults to displaying a wallpaper. It's not aesthetically pleasing, it's a bit of an inconvenience for users like me who primarily use the TV's smart features.My suggestion is to include an option that allows the TV to boot directly into the Home screen, displaying all the available apps and streaming options right away. This would streamline the user experience, making it faster and easier to access the services we use most.Would love to hear the community's thoughts on this. Cheers!
