Sound Issues


Mark Cerniglia

Question

I recently purchased a 65UQ7570 and am having a frustrating issue with HDMI ARC sound control to my LG SH4 soundbar.

I have my set top box connected to HDMI 1.  Sound bar is on HDMI 2 (ARC).  The sound bar works fine for a few days.  However, in the 3 weeks we've owned this TV, I've had three instances now where I've gone to bed with the sound working fine, but when I wake up, my HDMI 1 port has spontaneously had its label changed from "Xfinity" (which the TV detects automatically from my STB) to "LG SOUND BAR", even though the sound bar is on the HDMI 2 ARC port.  When this happens, I get no audio from the sound bar.  I have to physically disconnect the STB to get the TV to reset the HDMI port labels.

I'm very frustrated that this TV seems to just randomly change things on its own.  This isn't the only audio related issue I have with this TV.

I also want the ability to just turn off the internal speakers like other manufacturers do when you are using an external audio device.  And, why on earth to they even have the option to have the internal and external speakers playing simultaneously?

      I recently updated the firmware on my  LG43UH610V.  Now I constantly get "Wired Lan cable disconnected" / "Wired network is connected" messages even while watching a video file from my NAS. The TV is connected and using the network while getting these messages. It has always been on a fixed IP address on the LAN.

      Hi all, so I have 2 LG OLED TVs at home and I am connecting them to 5GHZ Wi-Fi, no problem until yesterday. Suddenly, I am not able to use the apps (Netflix, IPTV, Disney etc.) and both TVs are showing connection issues. The same Wi-Fi works on my PC and mobile though. So I tried connecting using a different Wi-Fi with my hotspot and both TVs worked again with no problems. I tried restarting my router many times and my provider said there is no issue on their end, but I am not able to use the home Wi-Fi anymore. 
      Have you seen this before? Is it possible that my provider blocked my LGTVs from accessing their network?
      Thanks

      Hello,
      I connected an hard drive to my LG OLED TV via USB. My TV is connected to my home network via Ethernet, as is my computer.  
      I would like to access the hard disk from my computer. Is this possible? How can I do this with Windows 10?
      Note that I don't want to connect my hard drive directly to my computer but to my TV (because my home network is quite unstable).
      I thank you in advance for all your help.

      I am trying to setup my new Phonak my hearing aids TV Connector with my new LG GP2 TV and Sonos Arc sound bar, connected by via the HDMI eArc port.   The TV automatically uses the the HDMI eArc port, and that port only.  As a result no signal goes through the optical out port of the LG TV.
      Is there a way to make the LG TV sound signal simultaneously go out to both the sonud bar via eArc port and to the Phak TV Connector via the optical out port so that I can connect hearing aids to the Phonak TV connector and also use the Sonos Arc soundbar at the same time?
      Appreciate any guidance.
      Thanks, M55

      I recently purchased an LG OLED48C2AUA. Frankly, I'm not pleased. The biggest problem is searching for programs, particularly across apps. For example, if I'm in Netflix, and search for a program that happens to be in Prime Video, using voice control (Alexa or LG) or the speak button on the remote, I usually get random UTube trailers or other suggestions, or no suggestions at all. It seems I have to know in advance what streaming app it's on, and even that doesn't work all the time. Before purchasing this TV, I used to be able to immediately find the program using the voice control on my Xfinity remote, or the Roku remote (if the program was on a streaming service) and my "unsmart" Sharp TV, with the input set to either cable box or Roku, as appropriate.
      I don't want to have to know in advance what app the program is streaming on to find it. I want to be able to simply say "Alexa, show me "Boardwalk Empire", no matter what program or app the TV is currently tuned to. I want the complete list of possibilities to choose from, particularly since some may be free, depending on my subscriptions. Is this possible?
