Hi @Prasenjit Kanrar Do Lionsgate actually produce an app for the webOS platform?

Hi @Scotty Haven't been on the forum for a while so you may have found an answer to your question by now. Recently I was running a 4TB Western Digital portable (unpowered) drive on a 2019 & 2022 LG TVs, now I have an 8TB desktop (powered) unit which works well.

Hi @Nixon Sylvester Generally this means that the website may not been written well enough to recognise the webOS browser identification string and/or the version of WebKit and other technologies used is not supported by the site. This really does not mean that the site would not work at all, rather that the site provider does not want to spend the time, effort and money to provide the compatibility. To date I have not test my 2022 TV to see what the HMTL5 comparability scores are. I will report back when I have had a chance to do so. It may have been better for LG to have recompiled an existing browser to run on webOS, as building a web browser from scratch is a complicated thing.

Hi @Nixon Sylvester We guys are not going to update anything on LG as this is a user-to-user forum. Which streaming sites, what standards are they using and which 2023 standards are you referring to? LG do not make apps for the platform as they do not have access to the information that would be needed to create an app for a client's infrastructure. Companies such as Disney et al are not going to give a third party access to their proprietary information and servers. If you would like an app produced you need to badger the content providers to do it.

Hi, The reason that an app for Airtel has not yet been added to the content store is that the owner, Bharti Airtel, have not yet either created one or it has not yet been approved for the store.

Companies such as Disney et al are not going to give a third party access to their proprietary information and servers.

The reason that an app for YES has not yet been added to the content store is that the owner, Bally Sports, have not yet either created one or it has not yet been approved for the store.

The reason that an app for PBS has not yet been added to the content store is that they, PBS, have not yet either created one or it has not yet been approved for the store.

Hi @PoeyYong Wong If we knew what model your NAS was the forum could probably confirm whether it supports DNLA, which if it does should show up in webOS is configured correctly. Using an app such as Plex or Emby would give you an overall better experience than just using DNLA though (in my opinion).

Hi @WhyNot Unfortunately, this is not a feature set that is included with webOS and would probably be considered an edge case scenario by LG. This is because it would require them to recompile/rewrite SAMBA and add a user interface to manage it to run with the webOS.

Hi @Frederik Kordiak Has your ISP done a remote upgrade on the modem recently?

Hi @William W. Can you either describe what the icon looks like, or post a photo?

Hi @Chris Cawley Have a look at this article: https://techbuzzireland.com/2023/02/05/what-causes-low-bluetooth-volume-in-your-android-and-how-to-fix-it/ Failing that not helping there seems to be plenty of videos out there that might help: https://www.google.com/search?channel=fs&client=ubuntu&q=volume+from+android+device+to+portable+speaker+low Please let us know if any of the above helps.

Hi @JeanF The short answer is no, the long one is yes but only if you or someone else creates it for the platform. It is not as simple as actually taking an existing browser, say like Chrome, and installing it on the platform. (mansplaining over...)

Hi @feaco I am afraid that while this feature is a popular ask here on the forum, as of this post it is not an option that LG have implemented. Raising the issue via LG's Twitter feed would be my go to starting point.

Hi @Chris Cawley Could you provide some details to help other users help you? Which model of TV, what Bluetooth device are you having issues with, and is the problem that you are unable to increase the volume at all because it is fixed at a particular level?

The reason that an app for Steam has not yet been added to the content store is that the owner, Valve, have not yet either created one or it has not yet been approved for the store.

Hi @Rbkn & @Russ1978 The reason that an app for Sportsnet has not yet been added to the content store is that the owner, Rogers Sport & Media, have not yet either created one or it has not yet been approved for the store.

Hi @Lgrump I suppose it is going to be a Plex issue as they produce the app, I know users not just on LG but other platforms as well who have had issues . If you are prepared to try something else then have a look at Emby, I have been using it instead of Plex for about a year now and have found it stable and an excellent replacement for Plex.

Hi @PoeyYong Wong What is the make and model of your NAS? This will determine if it is possible to install and use something like Plex or Emby.

Hi @Matei Fărcaș Unfortunately, there will be no upgrade for your television as NetCast (the OS on your set) runs on different architecture than webOS. Your next best option is to purchase a streaming stick such as a ROKU.

Hi @MacSmooth As yet there are no listings for firmware updates: https://www.lg.com/uk/support/product/lg-HU810PW.AEK

Hi @Kiran btw Your unit does run webOS, but as it is designed as a commercial/hotel TV it may not have access to the standard content store: https://www.lg.com/sg/business/commercial-tv/lg-49UT761H0TA I cannot help you with the network settings.

You could try https://www.fast.com instead.
