Hi!

I just bought a 55" OLED tv from LG called B6V. Picture quality is stunning with 4k content and regular SD broadcast is well... crap. Just like expected. I have a few questions regarding some odd things I noticed when playing for a few hours with it.

 

1) When I am in youtube  and press the "guide" button on the remote, nothing happens. Surely this is a bug since webos is a multitasking OS, and they made a big marketing thing about switching between apps. I expect youtube to pause and tv guide app to launch, but nothing happens.

 

2) Do I have different picture mode for different apps? I noticed I changed picture mode when watching tv, and then when watching youtube, the picture mode had changed?

 

3) The tv is HDR compatible, but does it not recognize this atumatically by content? I mean, if my wife watches some HDR and forget to set picture mode to HDR she loses the whole experience. Feels wierd.

 

4) How do I enable automatic timeshift? I want the tv to record constantly whatever I am watching. Can I set the buffer size somewhere?

 

5) Is there another way besides shaking the remote to summon the arrow? I have to shake REALLY hard for it to appear, and after a while my arm got tired.

 

We really love this tv set, huge improvement from our old samsung 50" plasma with HD Ready, LOL. Webos is a joy, but I do wish they reduced the overall font size, because things feel too big in the tv guide for example, it is very tight with no margin between anything. The UI need some "air" between stuff. Maybe I can change this somewhere? My wife also felt "hey why is the text so big everywhere".

 

/Cheers

      LG B8 TV questions:
      By Trev
      1. For well over a year the Antenna Channel Guide has been incomplete. Is there a way to manually update the guide?
      The Prime app has suffered from two problems:
      2. No subtitle option on movies, fixed by app uninstall/reinstall. Is there an easier fix?
      3. 4K movies downgrade to SDR or SD momentarily, app uninstall/reinstall did NOT fix this?
      TV software is upto date. Internet speed is good. Cache has been cleared by power disconnect/reconnect. 
      I have not tried Reset To Original settings, will that wipe out antenna channel & HDMI input name customizations?
      Thanks.

      Factory Reset, Remote Won't Work, Stuck on Press the OK button(wheel) on your remote (55NANO81ANA)
      By David Daul
      My magic remote and my Roku remote stopped working for turning off power so I performed a factory reset after troubleshooting to get the remote working.  I am now stuck at the 1st screen of the Factory Reset which says "Press the OK Button(wheel) on your remote."  Well... this really stinks because the remote doesn't work!!!  I have tried a USB mouse, a new magic remote, other LG Remotes with no luck.  I have also tried using the button on the bottom of the tv.  And, I contacted support which was just an exercise in redoing everything I had already tried... No Luck!!
      This is a Nano Cell 55NANO81ANA which is basically just a big brick now since I cannot even use any of the inputs.  Does anyone have a trick for getting past this initial screen???
      Thanks for the help.

      Unable to load user agreements
      By Hasan Ghasabi-Oskoei
      I have recently purchased an LG 55QNED86 television. I am located in Iran. Everything seems to be working fine, but when I click on any of the options, it tells me I must first consent to the LG Smart TV user agreement. However, I then get a message saying "Unable to load user agreements - a server error has occurred ......"
      Can you help?

      Magic remote STB issue
      By RJ Fischer
      New LG 55" C4,  Magic Remote STB setup does not provide for Charter/Spectrum Arius STB model DCX3220? This is a current model STB and previous LG models did provide MR setup for this model.

      LG Can you actually answer forum questions because many people want answers
      By The Old Man
      Hey LG 
      Can you actually answer forum questions because many people want answers,
      and really support your products.

      Even me I have asked question but nothing zilch, zit.
      So we buy but nil zit, zero help from you
      Product such as TV's are limited use and life. 
      Playback support and updates are really bad (Only bare minimum support in TV's)
      Seriously this does not make people like me want to purchase your products again
      I am seriously looking at other makers to purchase
      It is a shame because you have such a great product
      Yes I am NOT happy
