Problems with streaming


Question

Posted

Hi.

I own a LG 42LB650V and I have some problems with streaming. I am streaming using SmartShare.

The first issue:

When I am streaming 720p videos everything is ok, but when I want to watch a 1080p video which is a couple GB larger, it's so laggy that I can't watch. It's like 3 seconds of movie>10 sec lag>3 secs of movie> 10 sec lag etc. What can I do with it? Should I use a different DLNA server like Serviio? I am a newbie in this stuff, it's my first Smart TV and so far I'm really disappointed.

The second issue:

SmartShare is sharing with TV only the folders that I choose in its options. But when I put new files to the folder, in order to make it visible in the app, I need to go to SmartShare settings, delete the folder from there, click 'Apply', then add it again. Is there no simplier way?

Thank you for your answers and sorry for my english if I made any mistakes

Hi guys, 

 

I know that this is an old topic, but it seems that my question is fitting here.

My goal is to watch sopcast streams via my PC. Every time I open a sopcast stream on my PC can be accessed in the network by "any" player via the following URL:

How can I open a stream URL on my LG 47LB650V?

 

Thanks in advance.

      Just got a new 55in C4 and a Denon DHT-S316 Soundbar. With my very old LG I like to have the TV connected to the speakers during the day and in the evenings I would switch to bluetooth headphones. I could easily turn off my headphones and switch back to the optical sound output with no issues.
      However I tried this and while I connected my headphones with no issues, once I disconnected I couldn't get the sound to come back through the sound bar without having to with the TV and sound bar off which feels crazy at this point in time and the cost of the TV when my very old LG did this with now issues.
       
      Any suggestions much welcomed.

      On my LG 60SJ850T, Watching Horizon from AppleTV streaming service. Western with some scenes with Apache language being spoken. No subtitles appearing. When CC is on, see “foreign language being spoken”. When viewed on iPhone, there are subtitles. Have tried same movie using chrome cast TV, and casting from iPhone to Apple TV device. Never get subtitles. Verified subtitles work when I stream to same chromecast TV connected to a different TV. 
       
      reset LG TV to factory settings after trying all available CC and subtitle settings on TV. Still no subtitles.

      I have several LG Webos TVs.  One started doing this a long while back.  Just this week another started doing the same. They have streaming devices on hdmi ports.  To change channels and general navigation i could always use the up down left right buttons.  But now I get the he hdmi port with the multi audio icon below.  Something has to have been toggled to make this happen.  Factory reset doesn’t fix it.  How do I access my streaming device from my lg remote again?

      Since the last webos update to 3.40.87, I find I have to completely power cycle the TV (a G1 65" OLED) every week or so to get the DLNA client back to functioning properly. I have a media server running Serviio on a Raspberry Pi, and I periodically get one of the following two problems, both of which are fixed by completely power-cycling the TV.
      When I'm using the DLNA client to select videos from the server, I get no response from trying to select a video or series using the remote. The remote continues to work fine when used with other apps (eg Netflix, Stan etc) on the TV. When the DLNA client is playing a video from the server, the audio is delayed by a couple of seconds from the video. At the time that the TV is showing either of these problems, I can access the media server using either BubbleUPnP on my phone or VLC on my PC, and neither of them have any problem either selecting videos or playing them back with the audio synced with the video, so the problem is clearly with the TV, and power-cycling the TV gets rid of whichever problem is manifesting itself.
