Question

Since some months youtube has stopped working properly, it stops playing videos after some clips and became unresponsive showing blanked videos windows.

I have the latest tv firmware: 4.06.25

and latest youtube version app available for webos 2.0:  v.1.1.26 12/01/2022

I tried everything:

Resetting youtube

Changing language and country

Resetting tv

Resetting tv by unpluging power for some minutes

Uninstall and reinstall youtube 

Connecting to internet wifi from phone hotspot instead of house wifi 

I sent many feedbacks throught youtube app but still no fix until today..20221209_221724.thumb.jpg.9525424b7f0f486c56c58f52dfa4a44b.jpg

I was having the same problem with YouTube (mostly), in that it looked like it was dropping the internet connection.

I have both Ethernet and WiFi turned on, and swapped out each to see what makes a difference. Not much it seems!

After visiting the Network Settings yet again I turned on IPv6 in the Wired Connection (Ethernet) option. This seems to have fixed the problem for me (at the moment).

PS. I don't like my TV to just go into standby mode so I turn Quick Start off meaning my TV will hopefully really turn off and reset things a bit better each time I turn the TV on again.

try connecting through ethernet port I have seen the wi-fi board fail on this tv 

that's not a wifi or ethernet problem!!!

it is something about the commercials from youtube that doesnt' start at beginning of the videos, stopping the app.  It happens mostly with new videos. I noticed youtube app was updated 2 times in december, with the first update the problem was fixed. The last updated the problem come back

      The youtube app on WebOS has a gear icon that's labeled "settings", used to toggle the speed normally to 1.25x, 1.5x, etc. It stopped working about 3 days ago, when clicking on the gear icon nothing happens. I've hard reset the tv, ive deleted and reinstalled youtube app, tried messing with DNS. nothing works. Seems to be a bug, likely a result of some update in backend, should be trivial to fix. But tried calling LG about it and went nowhere with their help desk.

      Has anyone else had the same problem as me regarding the 'like' button on the YouTube app on my Oled77g7v? There is a thumbs up button and a thumbs down button for each video. These icons are supposed to be just an outline unless you click on them and then they fill in to show you have selected them. However, this no longer works on my TV. It is as if you never clicked. In fact, the 'like' icon is always pre_filled, no matter what I do. This used to work properly and it still works correctly on a Sony TV I have. Any ideas would be very welcome!

      Hi,
      I have my LG 4K Smart TV -Model : 43UJ632T.
      I could not able to use the Wireless Keyboard ( Logitech K230) with Builtin Apps like Youtube, Amazon Prime or in Netflix to search. I could able to use only thru Magic Remote. 
      But the same Keyboard is working fine in Google Movies & SunNXT apps.
      Could you please help me in fixing the same.
      Thanks,
      Sriram.

      Hi,  I have an LG 43UN71006LB with OS v4.50.53 (latest)

      I want to buy a TV for my mother who has dementia & poor eyesight.

      She needs to be able to control the TV with Alexa - i.e. voice only without having to hold a button on a remote down.
      I thought I'd test this on my TV and it works very well.  I've even set "routines" on Alexa so that saying "Alexa, BBC 1" is a shortcut for "Alex, change the channel on LGTV to 101" etc.

      But - it doesn't work for radio channels (channel 704 is BBC Radio 4):
      "Alexa, change channel on LGTV to 101" - works perfectly (101 = BBC 1 - a TV channel)
      "Alexa, change channel on LGTV to 705" - "that command doesn't work on device LGTV"

      It basically won't work with any of the radio channels (700 to 790)
      Also tried:
      "Alexa, change channel on LGTV to BBC RADIO 4" - "hmm - I don't know that"
      "Alexa, play BBC Radio 4 on LGTV" - "I didn't find anything called LGTV that can play music"

      I thought I'd try to change 704 to another channel outside of the 700 to 790 range but when I tried:
      "The programme number cannot be edited between programme 700 to 790"

      I tried playing the Radio on the Alexa then using Sound Share to turn the TV into a Bluetooth speaker - this works really well - except that I can't turn Sound Share on using Alexa:

      "Alexa, enable Sound Share on LGTV"  - "that command doesn't work on device LGTV"

      Anyone have any ideas?
