I'm not getting any audio from the apps via the HDMI via ARC connection to my receiver. This occurred two weeks ago and was unable to resolve it, but ironically there was new firmware released that same day for my B6 (3/31/17) and this fixed the issue. However, now I again can't get it working after a TV reset and tinkering with the audio settings again. I tried to load the firmware again, but it appears this is not possible to forceable load the same firmware.

Debuting at CES 2026, LG’s Modular LG Sound Suite With Dolby Atmos
FlexConnect Makes Home Audio Simple and Flexible
SEOUL, Dec. 18, 2025 — At CES® 2026, LG Electronics (LG) is transforming home entertainment with LG Sound Suite, a home audio system that gives consumers unprecedented flexibility. At its core is the H7 soundbar – the world’s first with Dolby Atmos® FlexConnectTM – delivering immersive Dolby Atmos sound that adapts to a room’s layout without complicated setup.
LG Sound Suite works seamlessly with LG’s premium TVs, allowing users to pair any of its wireless components – including the M7 and M5 surround speakers, and the W7 subwoofer – with or without the H7 soundbar for 27 possible configurations. This flexibility means consumers can create the perfect setup for their space, whether starting small or building a full 13.1.7-channel home theater. And when the H7 soundbar serves as the lead device, Dolby Atmos FlexConnect works with any TV via HDMI, giving consumers the freedom to meet their entertainment needs. LG is also bringing Dolby Atmos FlexConnect to its 2026 premium TV lineup and select 2025 models* through a future software update, unlocking even more ways to enjoy Dolby Atmos.
Dolby Atmos FlexConnect delivers the simplest and most flexible way to bring immersive Dolby Atmos sound to your favorite big screen. Enjoy astonishing audio that makes every explosion more intense, every song more life-like, every game day more electrifying and every moment more memorable. Setup has never been easier – it’s flexible and intelligently tuned for your personal listening environment.
Audio is reclaiming its place in the living room as streaming has replaced physical media. Leading platforms now deliver movies, shows, and sports in Dolby Atmos and other advanced formats, making cinematic sound widely accessible. This shift has revived home theater, with consumers seeking immersive audio to match the stunning TV visuals. LG Sound Suite answers this demand with wireless convenience, simplicity and performance, bringing true surround sound back to the heart of the home. With Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity, LG Sound Suite offers seamless pairing for streaming and device integration, making setup as simple as enjoying the sound.
In this regard, LG adds its own layer of innovation to elevate the experience. Sound Follow leverages ultra-wideband (UWB) technology to adjust the listening sweet spot based on the user’s location. When combined with Dolby Atmos FlexConnect, this ensures personalized immersion – so any seat feels like the best seat. Additionally, Room Calibration Pro analyzes acoustic characteristics and applies AI processing to refine the sound for a balanced, room-filling audio experience.
Powering the H7 soundbar is LG’s most advanced processor, the α (Alpha) 11 AI Processor Gen 3 – the same chip that drives LG’s flagship OLED TVs. Bringing this proven technology to audio delivers added performance and intelligence. The processor uses deep learning and its Neural Processing Unit to create sound with remarkable precision. With AI Sound Pro+, stereo audio can be up-mixed into multi-channel surround sound, while AI-powered object separation ensures voices, music and sound effects are clear and balanced. The system also adapts audio based on content type for optimized sound across different genres.
Every component in the LG Sound Suite features Peerless speaker units, a name synonymous with audio excellence for over a century and renowned for high-performance craftsmanship in premium speaker systems. By pairing the simplicity and flexibility of Dolby Atmos FlexConnect with the high-caliber acoustic performance of Peerless speakers, LG Sound Suite ushers in a new era of immersive Dolby Atmos sound.
“Together with Dolby, we’ve made immersive audio flexible for every home, LG Sound Suite is a testament to our shared focus on audio innovation,” said Lee Jeong-seok, head of the LG Media Entertainment Solution Company’s Audio Business Division. “LG Sound Suite combines Dolby Atmos FlexConnect with its wireless modular design and AI-driven tuning, so consumers can create the system they want and enjoy cinematic sound from any seat.”
“Dolby and LG are unlocking a new level of audio flexibility for anyone who wants to enjoy better sound with Dolby Atmos,” said John Couling, Senior Vice President of Entertainment at Dolby Laboratories. “Whether your speakers sit on a shelf or are tucked into a corner, Dolby Atmos FlexConnect fits naturally into any home without the complexity of traditional systems. We’re excited for consumers to experience this new level of audio flexibility and performance.”
LG Sound Suite will be on show during CES 2026 from January 6-9 at LG’s booth. To stay up to date with all of LG’s latest innovations and products for ultimate home entertainment experience, please visit the

A Spotlight Moment: Cat Living Showcase & Global Recognition
The centerpiece of the day – especially for animal lovers – was the “Cat Living Showcase,” featuring the LG PuriCare AeroCatTower, demonstrated with the help of several curious feline guests.
As a leading endorser of AeroCatTower, Dr. Lin Tzu-Hsuan – Asia’s first veterinarian certified by the International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants (IAABC) – presented scientific insights into feline behavior and environmental sensitivity. Dr. Lin’s expertise validated the AeroCatTower’s design philosophy that cares for the well-being of cats and other companion animals.
During the demonstration, LG Taiwan proudly announced that TIME Magazine named the AeroCatTower among the Best Inventions of 2025 – global recognition that celebrates its innovative integration of air purification and pet-friendly functionality.
Dr. Lin discussed the impact of airflow, sound and scent on a cat’s emotional state, expertly analyzing the distinctive product’s behavioral and academic rationale. This blend of expert commentary and live interaction not only added scientific credibility but also ensured an engaging experience that deeply resonated with pet owners.
Four Immersive Experience Zones

This area highlighted the PuriCare Dual Inverter Dehumidifier through an immersive wall installation visualizing the mechanics of the dual inverter compressor. Transparent panels and dynamic lighting showcased how the latest system boosts performance by 20 percent compared to its predecessor while delivering superior dehumidification.
Full PuriCare Lineup Zone – An Air Solution for Every Home
The complete PuriCare Air Care collection was presented, enabling visitors to explore solutions for diverse home environments – from compact city apartments to spacious family residences – balancing powerful performance, energy efficiency and modern design.
By launching the world’s first air purifier designed for cats and collaborating with Asia’s foremost animal behavior expert, LG Taiwan expanded beyond traditional tech and lifestyle audiences to embrace pet families – an increasingly important segment of Taiwanese households.
Guided by “In Tune With Your Air, In Care of Your Life,” we are committed to shaping air care experiences that go beyond simply cleaning the air. We believe our products should support emotional comfort, well-being and harmony for everyone in the home – including those with four legs and a tail.

Why does YouTube keep 'restarting now to free up memory' and how do I fix this very annoying bug in the WebOS or TV?
Thanks everyone for your suggestions, answers. Tend to agree with Petevick as I usually don't have any other 'apps' running in the background to take up the very limited memory. Have contacted LG support via clunky email page and had one reply so far which also said to check for open apps or - wait for this - if it only happens with YouTube 'app' then it is their problem and I should contact YouTube for a fix!
Not very helpful, ignores the many consumers with similar issue and gives no indication of a future firmware fix.
Looks like LG are another 'couldn't care less' TV manufacturer selling overpriced TV's on the back of 'Smart' features that don't work properly and are unlikely to be kept up to date.
Will remember this next time I need a new set.

31.5-inch Surgical Monitor Boosts Convenience in the OR With Intelligent Features
Including Preset Picture Modes and Instant Screen Mode Switching
SEOUL, Sep. 11, 2025 — LG Electronics (LG) is launching its new 31.5-inch 4K surgical monitor, model 32HS710S. Designed to streamline surgical workflow, the monitor combines crisp 4K resolution (3,840 x 2,160) image quality with intelligent new features that prioritize user convenience and operational efficiency. The monitor has received 510(k) clearance from the U.S. FDA, confirming it can now be sold in the U.S.
The 32HS710S introduces a range of workflow-enhancing functions to make it simpler and more intuitive for medical professionals to interact with visual data. For example, users can configure picture mode settings independently for each input source, helping to display images from multiple devices in a way that suits their needs. Dedicated hotkeys enable quick activation of preferred screen modes and Picture-by-Picture (PBP) layouts, facilitating adjustments with a single button press.
The monitor’s 4K IPS display is designed to deliver clear, detailed images with consistent color across a wide viewing angle. It provides a typical brightness of 800 cd/m² and covers approximately 95 percent of the DCI-P3 color space. Compliant with the Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) standard, the monitor is a high-quality solution for displaying visual output from various medical imaging devices.
To address the demands of the operating room environment, the 32HS710S employs durable glass with Optical Bonding, along with Anti-Glare, Anti-Reflection and Anti-Fingerprint coatings to help maintain image clarity under bright surgical lighting. The monitor is built with an IP45 rating for the front, IP32 rating for the back and IK06 impact resistance. Weighing approximately 9.2 kilograms, it can be mounted on a variety of surgical monitor arms.
For operational continuity, the monitor includes a Failover Input Switch that can automatically switch to a backup source if the primary signal is interrupted. This key reliability feature is complemented by versatile viewing options, including 4-screen PBP and Picture-in-Picture (PIP) for monitoring multiple sources at once. The display also offers Mirror and Rotation Modes for the easy adjustment of image orientation, and Clone Screen output for training and collaboration purposes.
“In developing the 32HS710S, we concentrated on delivering practical workflow benefits for surgical teams – for whom time and focus are critical,” said YS Lee, head of the IT Business at the LG Media Entertainment Solution Company. “By incorporating automated screen settings, one-touch controls and reliable backup systems, we aim to provide tools that can help medical staff maintain focus on patient care.”
