![[LG TV] - Tips & (Hidden) Tricks on the Magic Remote (WebOS22)](/img/n.gif)
Several of these are excellent. I've seen several videos and this one has way more information. Thanks.
Watching this after unboxing my new c2 77inch lg oled tv. Great video man!
I wonder how many TVs have been ruined thanks to this. NEVER EVER RUN PIXEL REFRESH MANUALLY. After around 10 pixel refreshes, the TV is dead. 20 is absolute max. That's why the damn thing has 30000 hours average lifespan, because pixel refresh burns your LEDs so it gets evenly used up every 2000 hours. What a horrible, HORRIBLE suggestion from someone who has no idea what he is talking about.
That had me cracking up! Set your tv to wake you up with all the terrible news 😂 Thank you, great video and very informative

10, exactly what I was looking for, thnx man.
Great channel! I wish you all success 👍
Cheers mate for the entertaining and helpful advice!
Is there any way to quick connect BT headphones, other than via voice command?
Like the shortcuts for apps on the number buttons maybe?
Thanks so much for this video. Just got the 55 inch today so it's been a great help. 1 question - can you add specific UA-cam channels to the app menu on this like I could with my 2019 CX set? The screen for adding specific UA-cam channels seems to have disappeared. Any help would be appreciated.
Great Video Thank you man
Tip 2 is such a time saver
This video was so cool! Very helpful for real hahahahah I'll be following all these tips

You know what lol? Even though I already knew most of these tips, the video was entertaining enough to make me subscribe. That LG logo part had me coughing up smoke as i had just inhaled when I started laughing.
Actually, the "secret" menu was very helpful! Mine is attached to the computer and when it goes to sleep the LG screen shows images. Thanks to this video I was able to disable it and have it go black with no signal. Much appreciated!
Yes is very good and my pc is connected to that tv and i was hating that, but is there a option when i start pc to start tv without power on tv with remote every time ?
@@danailhristov8385 No. It's one disadvantage of using a TV instead of a monitor. I just power it on/off with the button under the TV (hold for 3 seconds to power off).
It was helpful and entertaining. Cheers!

@@Atlas_Redux oh, okay. I didn't do that anyway.
Did not know about green button mash for VRR or quick access, thanks.
Auto updates not always the best thing to do. Sometimes bad updates are released that are then patched. You don’t want to be stuck with a ad update.
Always update manually once an update has been tried and tested
Thanks man, very helpful and entertaining video. I just replaced my 15 year old LG plasma with the C1. All the new options, menus, and functions were blowing my mind. I definitely feel like I've got a little bit more of a handle on things now, thanks to you. One thing I've been trying to figure out: is there a way to actually close an app you've been using, or is the only option to just hit the home button to turn it off?
Thanks again!
Back button is closing from any main menu of an app.
This video's brilliant (and very funny!). Thank you for making it. I'm likely to be buying a C2 TV over the weekend. (My 12 year old LG TV decided to stop working last week.) I'm going through the final checks to make sure it's the right TV for me. 🙂
No, he does one huge mistake. You should never, and I mean NEVER, touch manual pixel refresh. It severely degrades your image quality and is for burning out the LEDs evenly after each 2000 hours.
Only 12 years. Did it get a lot of use?
Tips and Tricks... Update your TV... WOW thanks for that! 😲
You’d be surprised
@@ItsSamuelJones Surprised about how many gets their TVs ruined by pixel refresh and unneeded updates, yes. Terrible advice. You missed his point.
cant wait for my c2 to get delivered....first oled from me coming from a samsung q80r.
How do i get to the shortcuts menu if i have activated the game optimizer?
Because if the game optimizer is active, they only show me the gaming menu that comes up from the bottom?
Or are there other easy/fast ways to activate the "Screen off" feature?
Thanks 😉
Thanks for the video.
Why doesn't everyone have auto updates switched on? New bugs. I would wait a little while in case new unforeseen bugs are introduced.
Thanks for the video great help just got this tv is there away to set up a quick option to just turn the screen off ?
Uh, yes. Just add it to the settings menu on the side, like any other function. Use it all the time myself. You need to remove one other settings first.
@@Atlas_Redux will this option come up when gaming
Manual pixel refresh absolutely should NOT be run on a monthly basis. Every 2000 hours is the recommendation, UNLESS you're trying to clear up some stubborn image retention.
Yeah once a month is probably too zealous..
@@ItsSamuelJones you shouldn’t use the manual pixel refresh at all unless you see a serious issue.
In days please not hours?
Days?
@@Episode_13 You don't ever have to run this feature and it is advised that you do not because it wears away your OLED screen. LG automatically refreshes your oled screen and will run the full pixel refresh by itself after 2000 hours of use.
Amazing tips. But I don't even know how to switch my TV on. A tutorial on this would be helpful
Power button beside the red light. Or use the remote. Or stop using sarcasm without /s. Whichever is relevant to you.
I have an 8KLG 75 inch but I will be purchasing in October 83 inch for the other room on my PS5 I have two of them but question I have do I go for the C1 or the C2 i’d like to save money on one hand but slowly but surely the stock is diminishing I’m wondering if I should leave it until then I’ll get it as soon as I’m not sure because I’m not entirely satisfied with such high prices at the moment I will pay it if I have to but I will look tonight to be honest that’s the reason why I’m holding out till October I’m alright in doing so…?
Hi. Would anyone know if you can turn on the screen saver manually, in game? So I don't have to turn the TV off if I want to stop playing for a couple of minutes. Thanks.
Is there any way of removing the "recent input" icon from the bottom left of my home screen? As it shows what I was watching on another input when I turn my TV back on.
Any video's on the voice command option???
So I had my lg OLED c2 calibrated professionally. Should I still calibrate it trough my Xbox calibration?
Really like the ability to make shortcuts, that one I definitely had no idea about. I do wish that LG would just let me default to my last app though
How do i dim the home page, banners, captions? I can set UA-cam, gaming, movies pretty good but the rest is extremely bright. Thanks
I finally have it today. It's normal for the color temperature to change depending on the viewing angle (you can see it very much when the image is white)?
Same with most TV's, OLED's tend to be the best , then VA LED panels tend to be the worst for viewing angles
@@ItsSamuelJones Ok, but is it normal when I look straight at the white background on the TV and have a large circle of warm color in the middle and cold stripes on the sides? I'm not sure, but my copy seems to be broken. I had a Phillips 43 inch Momentum monitor before and had no such issues :(
Is there a way too multitask or have a pop up view like to have a browser on pop up view while playing games or watchin a movie. Because I did something like that by accident and I can't seem to find how I did it where I had a pop up view of the browser while I was Gaming.
Not sure if it this one . But when you go through the settings there is an option called “ multi view “ .
hello sir, i have a question: can i check the total hours on, on the LG CS model?
can you install something on to the tv that makes it capable of playing MKV files. its doing my head in having to convert files to mp4 before playing it on the tv.
How do I get my old DVD player to work with my LG OLED TV with out an. HDMI cable?
Can someone help? I'll try to explain best I can. Im new to OLED, I'd like to know if you aim the pointer for e.g, too far up or too far down into the screen - is it supposed to mess up / misallign the direction of the arrow? So even when I next point it to the middle of the screen while holding remote dead straight, the arrow kinda ends up anywhere but the middle unless I turn the pointer arrow off & on so it resets to normal. I hate it
Just got my C2 77. Trying to set the most natural true image. On thing I see is the Whites may be too high while the picture is too dark. What are recommendations for Brightness, Contrast, and Warming to produce the Truest Colors/Image from a typical cable box? I hate over saturated brights and colors.
I am noticing this same issue. The whites just seem a tad too bright. Any tips you were able to figure out?
@@danozias7536Well, the best compromise I found is adjusting the Contrast. Now when you have a cloud/snow scene, you can still have details without being washed out.
Your either crazy or funny, I can't figure it out. SUBSCRIBED. 🖐
Could you make a video about longevity and reliability of OLEDs in comparison with QLEDs ?
Which TV will last longer without any problems with dead pixels, losing colours over time etc..
Don't need a video about that, the answer is pretty simple: The QLED will last you longer in 99.9% of cases (except if there's a manufacturing defect or anything...)
The reason being, they don't degrade over time. Technically they can last over 10 years unchanged... Organic pixels degrade by design, although with all the new protective settings and newer OLED tech a lot slower than they used to. So an OLED may as well last you quite a couple of years *almost* unchanged, depending on your usage habits.
A lot of static images on certain sections of the screen (news channels etc.) for hours on end are "deadly" to an OLED, the way I like to say it, an OLED is designed to watch movies, cinematic style, especially in a dark room image quality will blow you away - LCD is fine for watching mostly TV/sports.
I'd still almost always go with the OLED, especially if you're watching mostly at night the perfect blacks, infinite contrast and popping colours are just a blast!
Funnily putting burn in to one side. LED TV’s often have issues after 5 or so years. Dead pixels, dark spots where the backlight goes, they are also heavier and are easier to damage when moving. Other than burn in, OLEDs are remarkably damage resistant
@@ItsSamuelJones okay, didn't know about that (apparent) degrade in quality, cuz I still own LCD TVs that must be 15 years old by now and still run fine... Maybe they're more prone to issues now with all the Dimming zone stuff and being pushed to the max to compete with OLEDs :D
@@GenghisJan Just don't touch pixel refresh outside of the automatic every 2000 hours and you'll be fine. NEVER EVER DO IT MANUALLY, this video is misinforming as hell. It's the pixel refreshes that mostly degrades the image, but needed to even out usage.
I am facing motion blur on LG C2 evo at the time of live sports match, how to remove it ?
Set it in game mode.
Just got my new LG C2OLED delivered today, and will hook up tomorrow. Thanks for all the tips I can use right away.
How is it? I had a Q80B 65 Samsung but took it back for a C2 and honestly it’s not that much of a difference.. looks good but I’m not wowed
@@dlsrudeboy8658 The tv I replaced was an 11 year old 54 inch Samsung, so going to a 65 inch LG C2OLED was a MAJOR improvement. I can stand in one spot and see both the new tv and another 11 year old Samsung, and there is no comparison to picture quality. Until I bought this new one, thought the old tv in the other room had a very sharp picture. Love this new one!
I didn't know most of these other than pixel cleaner, changing the remote icon and turning off the ads. very useful!

How do you screen share from a chromebook to a lg c1 tv? I can't find the screen share tab on the tv.
Thinq app.
@@craigst6755 I downloaded the app on my chromebook but when i try to add devices and then pick TV nothing comes up. Is there a trick getting it to pair with the TV?
Sir what is this media server in yourtv
Disabling the logo is useful to prevent logo burn in.
Yeah but it’s literally on for like two seconds. I can’t imagine that burning in even after 20 years
Great tips, thanks for putting this together so entertainingly.
My big question is how come you can't set up a gallery so the screensaver displays pictures you actually want to see?
Maybe you guys know this: All apps on my LG oled work fine except HULU. It keeps glitching about every 5 minutes. I've tried resetting my router, re installing HULU and nothing seems to work. Suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks
Does the LG C2 have a fan noise normally when TV is off?
I have never noticed it
i have ground loop noise on tv no signal it comes
My Home Screen/ menu looks nothing like that & that option doesn’t come up in settings?
Hey guys! Am feeling like most movies play like series and seems unnatural and disturbing to my eye. There’s no 24 FPS flow which I love about movies. Will I be able to grt to that flawless movie experience in these TV’s?
Can anyone tell me why my LG C1 makes loud clicking sounds when I turn it off after playing the PS5 I notice it more ?
Whenever you turn it off, it takes a few minutes to go over all the pixels to check that there is no charge left in them. When done, there is a click.
Great video.
No, seriously.
Anyway...
Our brand new C2 55" is stubborn, it turns off after 4 hours... even in the middle of a GTA 5 online mission!!!...
Slightly annoying, bearing in mind the auto-off setting is *not* activated.
Is there an issue with some tellies actually not recognising an old xBox One X (sorry...) HDMI input???
Cheers, keep up the good work.

Hey, can anyone confirm if the LG C2 has sound lag?
Audio feels delayed to me by a few frames. I can confirm easily when I split HDMI into HDMI+Audio, so I can use external speakers at the same time as the TV, and I hear a clear difference in delay for the TV.
Can check it out once I get home, I have an LG C2 42"... It just received an update recently however, maybe that fixes your issue...?

Where do people get those demo scenes from?
just UA-cam. LG have them in HDR and 4k
@@ItsSamuelJones oh nice! Thank you mate 👍🏼
Never switch on auto-update, always confirm if a new update is stable before updating.
I mash the mute button, but I don’t get through to the secret menu. Am I missing something?!
Me either.. I guess I'm not mashing appropriately ha
For a tv that cost a small fortune the least Lg could do is give us a rechargeable remote, that goes for other brands as well.
I don't set anything to auto update not my PS5 not games not my TV. I'll check it every now and then then I will check with the update does and go from there.
I got a C3 so its very different
Also, it’d be nice if you only had to press the green button, or whatever button ONCE to see the display info like ALMOST EVERY OTHER TV EVER
The tip about arranging order of apps is no longer correct. You must go to the far right in the apps listing, click on Edit App List, then you can move individual apps.
How do set up Alexa voice to change tv channels on your virgin media 360 box
updates mostly add ad tracking etc. rare are bug fixes. new features, almost never
Mashing green button doesn't work on C2 42".
Really!? Not played with one yet..
It worked only in game mode
Just too note the tv will run the pixel refresh every 4 hours of use. After 2000 hours of use the tv will force you to do a pixel refresh we’re the tv can not be used for a good 30 minutes. Do not go around doing the refresh manually it’s very hard on the panel and should only be ran if you see something wrong with the screen. Okay I would also recommend keeping pixel shift on this will make the tv slightly move the pixels so there not stationary this helps with not getting a stuck on or dead pixel. And I’d also turn on logo dimming keep it on low but when the tv detects a logo it’s will dim the logo part to prevent burn in.
Wrong. The 4 hour is just an auto shutdown that you can manually change the time of. When the TV goes off, it then takes 5 minutes to make sure all pixels are complete out of charge. It does this every time, no matter how long. The 2000 hours is a LED burner to even out usage of the pixels and SHOULD NEVER EVER BE RUN manually, only every 2000 hours, as after 10 runs the TV is nearly dead. Stop spreading misinformation, dumbass.
@@Atlas_Redux I’m not every 4 hours of use once the tv is on the set dose a refresh after you power the set off. The 2000 hour refresh is done once it hits 2000 hours and the tv forces you too do it the set will shut off and do it’s thing. That’s the one you can do manually at anytime if you like in the settings. But the tv will force you anyways once it hits 2000 hours. You can check how many hours the set has in the settings. And by the way what this dose is energize the panel with high voltage to help clear up any uniformity like imagine retention that’s not burn in but slight ghosting of other images. This should not be run all the time it weakens the panel. Everything I’ve said is is proper knowledge look it up. That’s how the set works and that’s what it dose.
@@ryans413 1. Never has anyone been this wrong, ever. He has admitted to his mistake in the pinned comment. 2. For the love of God, learn English. English is my fourth language and I spell better than you. Half the words are nonsense.
@@Atlas_Redux what’s wrong with my English
@@ryans413 ... I don't even know where to begin. Sentence structure is out of order, you are using non-existent and wrong words, spelling is all over the place, you don't know the difference between "too" and "to" and "it's" and "its", punctuation is wrong, capitalization is wrong, apostrophe use is VERY wrong ... literally nothing you write is correct.
People purposely turn off auto update from LG, Sony and Samsung coz it fixes something while break something else. I could not watch one of my samsung tv for almost a month as their firmware update broke my wireless wifi connection and was not connecting at all.
True. I couldn't find a way to turn off the update prompts so I turned off the TV's network connection instead (I'm using it as a PC monitor). Now if I could just get it to stop prompting me to do the pixel refresh every few days and to stay on for longer than 8 hours, this TV as a monitor would be perfect.

I can't get my c2 looking anything like this for some reason looks all washed out.
Go into the menu and turn of the eco setting.
yes that's right! LG update their tv's reguliere! Replacing old bugs with new one's 🤣
Fun fact: Webos is an informall way to call testicles in spanish
Yup, can agree with previous comments.
Tip 4 is actually counterproductive, DON'T run pixel refresh manually, pretty much, ever. There's almost no scenario where it makes sense and it wears off the organic pixels faster than necessary.
Tip 5 also heavily debatable. My advice: Disconnect your TV from the web altogether and use a streaming stick etc. And DISABLE auto update, cuz if you're happy with your TV and image quality, why risk breaking something/some settings with an auto update? Always do your research, what an update might add/whether you even need it and otherwise be happy with your TV as it is.
Especially Samsung is known to actively degrade (!!!) image quality after a few years, so people buy their new sets.
100% fully agree.
You’re cute af. Subscribed
But... no.. don't do that?! Do not manual pixel clean your tv. Unless you do have some image retention going on.
Lesson has been learnt 😂
@@ItsSamuelJones Delete your video. Most people don't read comments. Absolute pure stupidity to say that. After around 15 refreshes, your TV is practically dead. That's literally the set lifespan.
Interesting tips, but THE most annoying thing about ppl who create info content on UA-cam….. SHOW THE SCREEN that you’re referring to and don’t cover it up with your face!!! I know everyone wants to be a ‘personality’ these days but most ppl just want to see the info the video is about clearly. Having someone’s face in the corner talking away is totally unneeded and just irritating!
Best tip is how to turn off the LG Logo hahahahaha
"Leave auto update on" 😂😂😂
Yeah, this guy hasn't got a clue what he's going on about.
I wonder how many TVs have been ruined thanks to this. NEVER EVER RUN PIXEL REFRESH MANUALLY. After around 10 pixel refreshes, the TV is dead. 20 is absolute max.
