Greetings,
I'm hoping someone can assist with a problem we're experiencing while running a Next.js based web application on WebOS.
Our Configuration:
Display: 43UM5N-E UHD Signage Display (43" LCD)
WebOS version: 6.0.0-124 (libertyspikes-lager)
Next.js version: 16.0.3
React version: 19.2.0
We have built a web application using Next.js and React. It is hosted on an IIS server running on our local network. The display is connected to the same network and we have verified connectivity with the web server. Our application is not a native WebOS app, but rather, we are using the Play via URL option to display the web site when the display boots up.
Attached is an image of the errors captured while running in the WebOS 6.0 simulator. These errors happen immediately after the application starts.
Based on our research, the embedded version of Node.js on this display is 8.12.0. On newer versions of the simulator (v22 and above), the application loads fine and no errors occur. It seems there are JS incompatibilities between the newer Next.js framework and the version of JS build into this display.
Questions:
1. Can the embedded JS version of the display be upgraded, and if so, how?
2. Is there any other possible workaround to get this application to load? It runs fine on regular browsers and reverting back to an older version of Next.js or re-writing in plain JS is not an option for us.
Any suggestions or help is appreciated!
Thank you,
Bob Miller

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

We're considering a new 77" LG OLED, and we cannot find an answer to this anywhere. Is it possible to use both an external soundbar (connected either with Optical or eARC) AND Bluetooth hearing aids at the same time, or is it limited to the TV's internal speakers and Bluetooth?

Issue
Whenever I start any video—whether it’s streaming apps, HDMI input, or a USB movie—the SC9S plays for a minute or two, then suddenly loses connection. Audio instantly falls back to the TV’s internal speakers, and the TV acts like the soundbar no longer exists on the eARC port. The soundbar display still shows “eARC” (sometimes flips to “OPT/ARC” for a second), but no sound.
Temporary Fix
The only thing that gets audio back is power-cycling the TV (standby isn’t enough; full reboot required). After that, the bar reconnects… until the next random dropout. This can happen multiple times during a single movie, which is a great way to kill the vibe.
What I’ve Tried
New HDMI 2.1-certified cable (same result, so original cable seems fine).
Disabled Quick Start+ and Simplink in the TV settings, then re-enabled.
Factory-reset both TV and soundbar.
Tested ARC instead of eARC—works, but no Atmos and same occasional dropout.
Plugged the soundbar into a different power outlet (in case of power spike).
Observed Patterns
Dropouts happen sooner with Dolby Atmos or DTS content, but even stereo YouTube videos eventually cut out.
No obvious heat buildup; bar is in open air, front facing.
Happens whether soundbar is wall-mounted or on its stand.
Questions for the Hive Mind
Anyone else seeing eARC instability with the SC9S on the UP77 series?
Could this be a handshake timing bug on the TV’s HDMI board?
Any hidden service-menu tweaks or firmware betas worth trying?
Should I just RMA the bar, or is the TV the real diva here?
Appreciate any insight—my couch and I thank you in advance!

Question
Girevik
Hello all,
I recently got a soundbar for my LG TV and have it connected with HDMI ARC on HDMI 2 I do my TV watching with a Firestick. I have this weird issue where if I switch apps on my Firestick using one of the buttons that go to an app, or (sometimes) using voice commands, the switches to the HDMI 2 input. If I choose the app from the menu, it works fine.
I have no clue why how I start an app makes a difference, but is there a way to set the TV to ignore HDMI when it comes to automatically switching inputs? I looked through the settings and thought I figured it out when I turned off instant game response on HDMI 2, but the switch is still happening.
