Hi, I joined the forum looking for some advice on how to connect wired headphones to an LG 55UK7550PLA television  which does not have a headphone jack.  And if it’s not possible to connect wired headphones I would consider using Wireless or Bluetooth headphones but to be honest I don’t know the difference between them and which would be the most suitable so open to any suggestions. thanks,Ron

@frewmore I beleive the 55UK7550PLA has Optical (TosLink) sound output, so if you look at the first 4 in the "best of" list below (as they have bypass - so you can have the sound ALSO to go out to your amp or Sound Bar). The reason for the bypass, is that most TV "sound out" settings can ONLY have either TV Speakers, OR HDMI (ARC to/from AVR/AMP), OR Optical out (that is then the INPUT to the adaptor, and ITS output piggy-backs out to the OTHER required sound devices you might want, i.e. sound-bar or AVR/AMP). The good ones will allow you to use either Bluetooth or wired output to your headphones.  Try Amazon in your country, to see if any of those are available

      Network connection issues. LG Content store doesn't connect.
      By akhil7j
      I did a refresh of my LG TV 3 days ago. Sold the old LG 47" 3D LED TV and bought new 55" LG Super UltraHD TV with WebOS. I believe, the biggest con of this new TV is WebOS. Its totally frustrating. Sorry for WebOS fans.
      It isn't that smart and functional they way it looks. The problem I having since 3 days and being a network engineer, I am unable to solve a network issue myself which is even more frustrating for me.
      Ok, let me explain the issue. The TV when installed was connected to LAN cable to my router which has direct internet connection. The TV works and none of the apps were working. Basically TV wasn't able to connect to internet via apps. If i open web browser, it was working fine with all webpages showing correctly.
      I'll skip the part of contacting LG support which was useless. All troubleshooting steps like resetting, formatting, changing time zone, location, region was done but no luck. Finally I connected the TV via mobile hotspot and it just worked which gave me the clue that some ports are being blocked by my ISP or router.
      My internet setup is this way. Internet cable from ISP -> ISP Modem (can do NAT and work as router) - WiFi Router (NAT, DHCP, etc) -> all LAN clients. I put my LG TV in DMZ, opened all ports, etc but no luck. Then I converted my ISP modem as router and connected the LG TV directly to it and it started working..!!!
      My WiFi Router is TP-Link Archer C7 and I was using stock firmware. Thought it was creating issues and I installed DD-WRT, Open-WRT but no luck at all. The apps which were installed in TV when TV was connected directly to modem are still working fine. Youtube, Plex, Netflix, etc all are working but when I open LG Content Store, it just refuses to load.
      I am not sure what wrong my TP-Link router is doing. There is something wrong with the LG TV content store. If it requires to open ports, then I would like to know which ones.
      Sorry for the long port, may be my frustration of 3 days with no luck.!!

      Having problems switching between my BT headphones and HMDI ARC soundbar, please help!
      By John Nguyen
      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.

      LG 32LJ610V with bluetooth headphones
      By janisad
      I have an LG 32LJ610V TV.
      I would like to connect wireless headphones to it.
      I bought a Ugreen CM523 bluetooth adapter and a JBL Waveflex wireless headphones.
      The adapter and the headset are connected to each other.
       But on the tv i can't set it to play through the earphones.

      Bluetooth headphones for 43UK6300Y
      By Evgeny Dubnov
      Hi,
      I intend to buy LG TV 43UK6300Y.
      So question: if this TV require the Bluetooth headphones which must support LG sound sync (wireless) function.
      If yes, could you send the list of acceptable Bluetooth headphones.
      Thank you, 
      Evgeny

      Bluetooth headphones won't connect
      By Fredrik Andersson
      Hi,
      I have a OLED77C34LA and a pair Bose QC32 II headphones and I have trouble connecting to the tv.
      First the headphones works good on my other three devices but the TV has trouble, when I manage to connect they work perfect but when I turn the off on on again the headphones will say they are connected to the TV but the TV most of the time won't give me an option to connect and I remember I got a popup asking if I wanted the use the headphones as output but only for like 3-4 times so far.
      Usually I have to plug the power out of the TV for a while and remove the bluetooth device but and it doesn't always work. It's not great spending like 15min to get the headphones to work.
      Any ideas what could be wrong?
