Re. LG C2 TV, WebOS ver. 03.30.16

In the TV guide if you hover over a program selection (or it's (i) symbol) with the pointer the program's info dialog pops up.

The problem I have is that after 5 to 10 seconds, while the program selection remains, the info dialog reverts to the currently playing program. This is a real pain as I for one can't read all of the program info in that time.

If this is intentional is there somewhere I can configure the info display time or is this (as i suspect) a bug?

      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?

      [pivotCE]Guide: Create an “Original Barrel” Charging Wire for your HP TouchPad
      By pivotCE
      I’m pretty sure it’s safe to say there are more HP TouchPads left in the world than there are their matching original barrel chargers. This means if you have a TouchPad today, you’re probably using a TouchStone, a computer, or any other random USB A charging brick to (very slowly) charge your 13 year old device. And it means you’ve seen the error message in the image above every time you’ve plugged it into anything other than the original barrel charger or a computer. Fun fact, you can trick the TouchPad into charging normally and not feeding you the message by creating your own custom micro USB or USB C cable if you’ve
      link hidden, please login to view. Stuff You’ll Need
      Assuming you have a micro USB (ie. non USB C modified TouchPad) you’ll need:
      1. A 4-wire micro USB to USB A cable
      2. and 1/4 watt resistors (1 each per cable)
      3. Soldering iron and solder
      4. Heat shrink or electrical tape
      If you’re making a USB C cable but only want to use it with a USB A charger then you’ll need:
      1. A 4 wire USB C to USB A cable
      2. Items 2-4 above
      If you’re making a true USB C to USB C cable that you plan to use with a USB C 3.1 charger you’ll need:
      1.
      2.
      3. Any 2-wire cable or a 4-wire cable that you’ll cut the data wires out of (green and white typically) and that you’ll cut the ends from
      4. Items 2-4 from the first section above
      Prepare the Wires
      Regardless of which cable you’re making, the end that goes to the TouchPad will need all 4 wires and the resistors. So grab the 4-wire cable of your choice and strip the ends, and I recommend pre-tinning them with some solder.
      Build the TouchPad Side of the Cable
      See the image below for how to arrange the resistors. If you’re making a USB A cable, go ahead and cut into two pieces, set aside the USB A side, and grab the micro or USB C for this part.. It doesn’t matter how far away from either end you go, it’s your choice. Strip the wires back so you have enough bare wire to work with.
      1. Solder the ground (black) wire to one side of the 300k resistor.
      2. Solder data- (green), data+ (white), the other side of the 300k resistor and one side of the 250k resistor together.
      3. Then solder the other end of the 250k resistor to the red (power) wire.
      Build the Charger Side of the Cable
      If you’re making a USB A cable, then all you have left to do is reconnect power (red) and ground (black) to their corresponding colors on the TouchPad side of the cable, trim off the data lines from the USB A side, clean it all up with some heat shrink or electrical tape and you’re done!
      If you’re making a USB C to USB C cable grab the USB C board I linked above and your 2-wire cable (or 4-wire that you’ve trimmed the data lines from). You’ll also have to cut the end off to make room for the new connector.
      1. Pre-tin the board on the two outside pads marked as VCC and Gnd in the image below.
      2. Solder on the red (power) wire to VCC and then black (ground) to Gnd. If you bought the housing and boards together, don’t forget to the housing on the wire before you start soldering. You also may need some super glue to keep the plastic housing from coming apart.
      3. Back at the TouchPad side of the wire, take the other end of your 2-wire cable and attach red and black to their corresponding ends, clean it up with some heat shrink or electrical tape and you’re done!
      Final Thoughts
      You should now be able to use any charger you want to and the TouchPad will believe you’re plugged into a normal battery charger and will allow the normal charge rate flow through.
      Note, you’ve effectively removed the ability to use this cable for Data since the data lines are no longer connected.
      Also, for those who modded the TouchPad with USB C, the port already has 5.1k resistance but cannot communicate that to a USB C 3.1 charger with the added resistance on the data lines. This is why the TouchPad end of the USB C cable must be a “dumb” 4-wire USB C cable and the charger end needs the 5.1k resistance to tell the charger on that end to send power. This also means that you must remember which end is which, but don’t worry. Picking the wrong direction won’t hurt anything as the USB C charger won’t allow power since the wire doesn’t tell it to. I marked the TouchPad side of the USB C cable with a dab of orange paint pen.
      Finally, I hope you found this helpful or at the very least entertaining! I had fun exploring the different ways of making this work and so feel free to give it a watch.

      Binge LG WebOS app can't play a complete program without restarting
      By Nick Payne
      On our LG G1 OLED, when watching a program on Binge, the Binge app restarts itself every 20 minutes or so with a message about needing to restart to free up memory. Power-cycling the TV doesn't fix the problem, nor does running the "Memory Optimiser" function from system settings. None of the other streaming service apps we have on the TV have this problem - Prime Video, Stan, Netflix, Disney+, Britbox, ABC iView, SBS On Demand, Youtube. Those are the only other apps installed on the TV. I've checked the LG WebOS version and checked for app updates, and everything is latest version.
      If I run the Binge Android app on my Chromecast with Google TV, it works without any problems when streaming the same programs.

      Corporate Value-up Program Announcement
      By News Reporter
      SEOUL, Oct. 22, 2024 – LG Electronics (LG) has announced its Corporate Value-up Program, a comprehensive plan that includes mid- to long-term business goals and strategies aimed at enhancing enterprise value. The program also outlines policies and plans to enhance shareholder value and future returns. 
      LG believes that sustained growth is the key to enhancing enterprise value. Guided by its “Future Vision 2030,” which focuses on evolving into a future-oriented business structure and achieving sustainable growth, the company is consistently working on transforming its business portfolio. 
      The goal is to achieve KRW 100 trillion in revenue and meet its “Triple Seven” targets: a 7 percent average annual growth rate, a 7 percent operating profit rate and an enterprise multiple (EV/EBITDA) of 7. By 2030, LG expects that the transformed business portfolio areas will account for 52 percent of total sales and 76 percent of operating profit, with an aim for a return on equity (ROE) of over 10 percent by 2027. 
      The shareholder return policy included in this value-up program will be applied for three years, from the 2024 business year to the 2026 business year. It will utilize more than 25 percent of the consolidated net income based on controlled shares (excluding one-off non-recurring profit) for shareholder returns. 
      To enhance shareholder value, the company will continuously review incinerating current treasury shares and explore further buyback options.
