The international content on JioCinema and Hotstar apps are not playing. No issues with Indian content in Hindi or other regional languages. But English, Korean, and Japanese content are not playing. Specifically, I want to play Disney content on Hotstar and HBO content on JioCinema App.
I tried resetting all configurations and reinstalling the applications and re-logging into the apps. Still, the issue persists. I tried switching off the TV and tried pressing the power button for complete discharge and rebooting my router, but the same issue persists.
**I found a workaround though, changing the wifi network or using a mobile hotspot on TV and then all content plays well even if I revert to my primary Airtel wifi, It still plays. but the next day the same issue continues.
It's an overhead to switch the wifi every time I want to watch Hollywood titles. Certainly, it's not the experience I want with a TV of a hefty price tag. No other devices (Mac, ios, android, windows, Android TV) have this problem. Also, it's not the wifi issue, as I can watch the same titles on other devices. The LG TV also doesn't have the capability to remember a few WiFi networks to ease this workaround of switching networks.
Alas, Nobody informed me about this issue earlier while making the purchase. Now such pricey TVs shouldn't have these issues at all. Kindly let me know If there is a permanent fix for this issue.

So we too are affected (or were affected until we did a factory reset) by the memory issue. This however, is a little different.
We can be sat, watching the TV for 5 minutes or 5 hours and all of a sudden, Netflix or YouTube just suddenly starts. Now, I was skeptical about this until I saw it, assuming the remote was being sat on or that it had been damaged BUT, nope. Even with the controller sat in an IR blocking box, the TV sporadically starts Netflix or YouTube. This happens whether we're watching FreeSat or a streaming app like Prime or Disney Plus.
We've factory reset AGAIN and still the same issue occurs. We're running on the latest firmware provided by LG. Cabled via ethernet with WiFi switched off.
