Trying to programme my magic remote to control an Amlogic OTT, however keep getting a ‘temporary issue occurred’ when I try. I’ve been trying for over a week now, so this temporary issue isn’t so temporary!

Hey, any updates on this?

I just reset my tv to factory setting (to get the fireworks pause screen back, don’t judge haha) and now I get the same issue when trying to add universal control to my JBL sound bar.

The most annoying part is that I get to try turning my sound bar on/off using the Magic Remote, but when I press “yes” to confirm the setting, I get the issue prompt… even though there clearly is no issue controlling the sound bar before I try to saving the setting.

Looks like others have had the same issue with the "temporary error" when setting up universal control. A few things you can try:

  1. Make sure your TV and remote are updated to the latest software.
  2. Try resetting the remote and the TV to factory settings again.
  3. If it's still not working, try unpairing the remote from the TV and pairing it again.

If these don't help, reaching out to LG support might be the next best step. Hope that helps!

I too have got this issue. I am trying to control my Virgin 360 box with the LG Magic remote. The TV initially recognised my 360 box but I could only use on/off and volume controls with the LG remote. Then I tried to set up the tv/remote manually, but got this so-called “Temporary Error - please try later message”. This has been going on for days. I don’t want to do a factory reset if possible as I have changed many settings on the TV and it seems that it won’t fix the problem anyway according to other comment on this thread.  How can I resolve?

This keeps happening to me. I cannot get my C1 to recognise my Sky Q Mini box.  Usually I don't get as far as the screen dump attached. I have reset my TV, reset my Sky box, reset my remote AND changed the batteries but nothing works. After powering OFF the Tv for 5 minutes I get as far as the picture shows but that is it. I have tried all four HDM ports and different HDMI cables. Running out of ideas now.

      Soundbar volume control not visible on screen and WOWcast connection drops
      By crct
      I have a  42 inch LG OLED evo AI C4 4K Smart TV 2024 with a USE6S soundbar connected via HDMI.
      Up until a few days ago, the iPhone app was connected via WiFi. I could use it to control the sound effect.
      The sound bar remote could also change the sound effect, and the volume with the volume control visible on the TV screen.
      Now the iPhone app does not connect to the soundbar and the remote control doesn't appear to alter the volums: there's no on screen display.
      And also, the TV WOWcast output is not 'sticky': that it to say I can select it, and it remains for a time, but drops.

      TV program guide is slow
      By Peter_T
      LG Oled42c44LA; cable TV to CI+ module
      Program guide works OK until ca. 17.30-18.00 . Then the guide only shows current programs. Inspecting later times is not possible. Only thing that helps is to unplug the TV  and  plug it in again. But the next day the problem is there again around the same time. Is this a problem of the LG TV? Is there a solution for this?

      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.

      Why is my LG TV SmartShare (Media Player) program randomly changes to Sharing OFF on Windows 10?
      By wallyricks
      I have owned a couple of LG TV’s over the last 8 years, with the current one being a high-end 77” model.
      I am still using LG TV SmartShare (v.33) as my “Media Player” v2.3.1511.1201 for my PC– which was last updated in 2015 but it is still compatible today.  As proof, my latest TV is now 11 months old and I have had zero issue (until you see below).    
      link hidden, please login to view My PC setup is: Windows 10 Pro (with all latest updates) and a TP-Link Archer BE19000 (BE805) router.    NOTHING has been changed on my router, TV (no updated or changed firmware) or any equipment moved around in the last 4 months.
      Up until about 3 weeks ago, everything ran just fine.  The SmartShare program was always defaulted to have Sharing ON, upon start of it, which is always when Windows boots).  However, about 3 weeks ago, the SmartShare PC program has started to randomly change its status to Sharing OFF.  I would then have to go into the program, manually change it to ON and then it works anywhere for 30 minutes up to 20 hours, and again, randomly change the Sharing to OFF.
      I am an experienced PC user, and I am very sure that this has nothing to do with my WIFI because it’s not a dropped connection or random TV not being found.   Something is happening inside Windows 10 that is triggering this status change.  And it never fluctuates back to Sharing ON by itself.
      Being so frustrated, I actually updated the Router to the latest firmware a few days ago, but this problem continues as before.
      As an experiment, I installed an alternate Media Server program called Serviio.  One can also see that when my Sharing changes to OFF, the two green lights turn red.
      Anyone have an idea of what can be happening after nearly 8 years of not experiencing this?       I am guessing that Windows is triggering some “Service” to stop running, but what can it be?

      Issue configuring IR based control, and optical audio soundbar
      By Regis Wheeler
      Apparently, the LG model OLED55CSPUA has an issue with the external device power on/off control. I can configure the IR Bose soundbar well enough, as setup sequence tests it good to control soundbar power. but after exiting the setup, when i press the external device power button on the remote, the TV just wants to cycle through the setup again.  It doesn't toggle soundbar power, just cycles back to the setup.   i have tried factory settings reset and verified that there are no other devices on the TV.
