My friends back in India are able to download and watch Hotstar but I am not able to find the app on the Content Store.   I believe I had updated the system to the latest.  What am I missing?

@murugess Hotstar is ONLY available in India, USA and Canada currently.  You will NOT be able to get the APP on your TV if not ACTUALLY in one of those 3 countries.

HOWEVER, you may wish to try using a VPN service to "configure" your location to be, say an Indian IP address location, then you MIGHT be able to view shows via the app downloaded on to your Laptop/PC.

Here is an example, but I offer NO guarrantees,  as Hotstar could tighten up their location checking for VPN use:

      By AhmadEx98
      I am using LG TV(UT8050 4K ULTRA HD). Disney hotstar app is running horribly, it is lagging too much and background video auto play making it worse. Can we add an option in it to disable to background video play in next update of Disney hotstar app.

      Subtitles showing double or persistent on LG OLED65C8 - SOLVED-
      By Danster75
      Hi all,

      I'm Danny and have a problem with my LG OLED65C8;

      since a few months when playing movies, either from my Syno NAS or just plain USB, subtitles are being displayed double (over or above eachother) or are displayed for sometimes minutes after the sentence's been spoken. The videofiles haven't got any hardcoded subs but either subs included in the mkv container or as separate srt of ssa file. Disabling subs removes the display of subs, enabling subs results in double or persistent subs.

      Subtitles have been disabled in the accessability menu, factory reset did not help.

      I searched but as far as I can see this problem has not been discussed yet, also googled and never came across this problem. Perhaps someone here can help?

      Kind regards, Danny
      ----------------
      SOLUTION, for me at least:

      I used ColorControl to reboot the TV. It's weird that a factory reset did not work but a simple reboot did.
