Hotstar TV language selection

[ashfaq mohammed]

Hi

I can't find setting option in New Hotstar App to change language of a movie. Movies are playing in default language and I am not able change its language. UP key of magic mouse doesn't give menu option in hotstar. Plz advise solution.

 

Thanks in advance

i have the same problem, anyone with a solution?

i tried resetting the tv to factory settings & re-installed app, still no luck.

Even I am facing the same issue. We can choose the languages while watching on TV, but the web OS doesn't give language selection options

Please check your webOS TV version . The app's feature for changing languages is only available for web OS 4 and above. Sadly even I cant use this feature. Trying to communicate with the customer support for the same.

To check web TV OS:  Go to settings---> General------>About this TV------->TV Information ( click on "TV information" to know your TV's web OS version)

That’s a lie, I used to change the languages couple of months ago , new updates to hotstar app took away the option. My tv is on webos webos 3.8

May I know what is a "lie"?  I did heck with Hotstar customer care. They mentioned the new app has these features available only for the web OS 4 and above.

I meant the hotstar support answer is lie. Because I did used to change language in the app till couple of months ago. My tv is 2017 oled & not on webos 4.

Yes, you are right. Even I got the same response from hotstar now "Disney+Hotstar" that - issue is resolved for all lg TV's with webos ver 4 & above. They are working with lg to fix it for lower version and it's gonna take time.

Hey! for my TV ( web OS 3.8) it started working.  Pressing the UP key and you can see a settings Icon on the top right corner of the TV, which  opens a language selection menu. Please try.

@aniruddh kumthekar  thanks for update, yes it got resolved.. just wanted to check if you face buffering issue watching hotstar. I face it most of the time on hotstar. First I thought if it was due to network slowness but doesn't seem becoz other all apps viz. Amazon, zee5, Netflix, YouTube works seamlessly. Let me know your thought on this. 

[aniruddh kumthekar]

Yup, initially I faced this problem. But It's quite fine right now.
