Hi Steve. Thank you thank you thank you. I bought my LG TV 10 days ago and have been struggling to set it up. You have answered all my questions and then some. What a great service! Thanks again.
I recently bought an LG tv. LG should promote your video so that their customers can configure their TV to their liking. LG offers little support in this regard. Thank you, it's thanks to people like you that people like me can enjoy their new TV.
Bro this was amazing - thanks so much for doing this video. I find it super annoying that LG doesn't have their own quick start guide like this to get people going when they get a new TV.
I figured this one out as I was watching your video, basically I was continually pressing the return button to exit out of apps, then I realized that if I just hold down the return button the option to exit an app appears which is much easier than hitting back over and over.
Hi Steve....quick question as I am new to the LG TV community. Do all the USB ports by default provide power, or is this something that needs to be configured individually? I would like to use one of these ports to provide power to the LED lights installed on the back of the TV so that they automatically come on when I turn the TV on as it once did on my previous TV. Many thanks in advance
Hi Steve, Adjust Logo Brightness should be set High to avoid pixel burn-in due to a bright log. High setting does not mean that logo will be set to have high brightness as you suggested in the video. High means that the TV would do a "higher adjustment" to the logo to avoid burn-in. Please refer to User Manual page 11 for "Recommendations for Minimizing Image Retention"
@@DefinitelyNotMyRealName Playing games with static HUDs, I would rather have it on. Honestly don't think anyone would even notice it being on either so why not take the precaution.
Thanks for the tips Steve, I was happy to find out that you can turn down the brightness of subtitles! Those subtitles can be pretty distracting out of the box because they're so bright.
It’s webOS operating system. Google play works on Android mainly. You can’t do that, just for example ,it’s as if I was wanting to install a Microsoft Windows program on my Apple Mac. It won’t work.
Just got an LG 86" and these are excellent tips! One question tho, is there a way to customize the HOME menu? IE: Is it possible to re-arrange the order they appear, like move the inputs to the top above the other apps?
I believe it is possible. If you go to the very bottom of the Home screen, you should see an EDIT button which allows you to move the entries up and down.
I just got my LG G3 from Costco a couple of weeks ago and was lost in all the settings and didn't know about the hidden menus until I saw your video. Thank you so much for posting this.
I agree I didn’t know what any of the buttons on the remote covered ….i didn’t even know how to record and trying to get a Manual or instructions on my tablet was hopeless A great product spoilt by poor information and how to obtain it
Hi Steve, great video and very informative. Do you know how to set the dashboard as default rather than the TV channel automatically playing? Additionally when displaying phone video/apps on the tv, how do you keep volume playing on the tv but not on the phone?
Exactly what I came in to ask. We don't have an aerial plugged in but can't hide / undefault the TV channel. Also can the LG tv app be hidden/ switched off as that seems to be the second default.
Thanks for the video some options came in handy. Still there is 1 annoying thing with my LG TV and that is Sound Share, that thing keeps popping up for me to link my mobile with my TV, I hate it and want to get rid off it, can't find anything online for it. I can deactivated air play but for the love of god I can't find the option to turn off or remove Sound Share.
Great video thanks! Do you have any suggestions for remotely operating a TV? I live in a different state from my mother, she has dementia and is no longer able to use a remote, but still enjoys watching TV. Would love to be able to manage her TV from my smart phone. Any suggestions appreciated. Thank you!
Such a good video. Learned a lot. Peeled off the back protector, turned off No Signal and assigned my inputs to quick actions. Made my experience that much better. Thanks.
This is a good and informative video and I thank you for making this video, but I just wish I can find some vids that are specifically made for NanoCell tv’s and not OLED’s and QLED’s.
Hi Steve, My LG seems to be working better since I deleted some apps that I don't use. Previously I would get the Wi fi dropping off regularly especially after downloading one or two of our National TV apps. Do LG tvs have limited memory storage? mine's about 4 years old -65inch. Model UA40H6400AS. Cheers.
Just ran across this video and I found it to be one of the best videos. It was so easy to understand you, clear and concise. I was wondering about photos on my screen and you explained it. Thanks so much
Got my new LG oled afew days ago and I can't believe I still had the plastic on the back 😂 Cheer's man Your video helped 100% . Respect for Scotland UK 👍✌️ ❤️🌍
Yeah, it doesn't make sense to have a ," High" setting for logo protection that makes it brighter! Especially when the other options are for , " Low" protection and Off for no protection at all!
How do you set the default "power-on" input? At power-on, mine goes to HDMI3 automatically, which is the sound bar. How can I set the default to HDMI 1 (Cable)?
Helpful information. We also need to know how to turn down or off the background music on the TV for TV series, and Movies. it is so annoying when the background music is loud it downs out the TV conversations.
Thanks for the terrific info, Steve. I have a question though. On my older model LG TV I am able to format my USB sticks and after doing so I put films onto the USB stick and can play them. The films come up listed so I can choose easily what to watch. However, they don't seem to work so well on this newer model. Has LG made changes? Also, I haven't been able to find a way of formatting USB sticks on the new model. Any ideas you can give me to help with this, please?
In addition to the quick access buttons, if you long press the Home button it switches back and forth between the last two sources. I use it to avoid commercials when watching live sports. I'll have the game playing on Input 1 and when the commercials start I switch over to the UA-cam app where I have a highlight reel or something else playing and then switch back after a couple of minutes. I have UA-cam Premium so I don't see adds on UA-cam either. Can you tell I hate ads? 😂 Super helpful video, thank you!
Go to settings and find the multiview option. Mine was on the side bar otherwise go in and edit the side bar to find it. It's not In the all settings that I can see.
I used to have a Live Zoom option in my old LG but now i moved to 50QNED816QA i can't find that anymore. Do you know if there's a way to zoom while i'm watching the TV?
Thank you SO much for making this. I’ve been going crazy trying to understand this new tv (and getting out from under huge cable bill). Maybe I’m just too old and clueless but your video cleared up a LOT of confusion! ❤️
i really like pluto tv, im trying to convince my mom to get rid of our cable monthly bill by cancelling it nd just keep the internet. i believe cable + internet is well over $200+ a month ($50 being the internet bill by itself). thats a ton of savings. jail broken firestick on top of that ir u know where to acquire one ad ur golden. never dealt with the firestick personally but everyone i know loves it esp if its jail broken.
Thanks for all your tips. I was at the point of returning the tv. It’s too much, and no advice from the manufacturer. Is there a way I can make the picture larger or appear closer. I’m having trouble seeing the screen. Thanks!
Important note for getting rid of the LG logo: You have to go to „Live TV“ before hitting the mute button three times. It does otherwise not open the menu.
Nice video. I use a receiver for surround sound & that seems to work ok for Cable TV. But when I use any app such as Netflix, the sound comes through the TV speakers! Any thoughts how I can fix this?
I confirmed in the manual, the the Low/High refers to the amount of reduction of logo brightness (not the way described in this video). So if you want the highest protection from burn in...set it to high.
Here's a good one: Make sure to edit the Aspect Ratio on all inputs because for SOME REASON most TVs default to "Zoomed" or "Cinema". Should either be "Original" or "16:9" to see the full image as intended.
Be aware that the logo brightness set to high is the maximum effect where low or off is lesser dimming of bright logos. This should be set to high as per LG website in order to help avoid screen damage.
Absolutely Ogden, i also prefer Horse and buggy over airplane travel, civil war operating rooms over sterile modern ones, rotary phones over my modern flip phone, and cooking over a campfire over using a convection oven.
You fought during the "War of Northern Aggression" (or what yankees call the "Civil War") don't start being lazy now Ogden! Don't buy shitty tv's. If you bought this TV then you're good. Take the time to understand modern devices they're all pretty much the same.
any recent videos on how to adjust all the settings properly ? All the ones i have seen are from an old software....... Also, how to set up the game optimiser ?
Thanks this was great! We just bought my Uncle a 32” Lg for his nursing home room. The LG Channels seem to be overriding the basic cable connection/channel line up. They’re great but it’s confusing my 76 year old uncle. The nursing home has a basic coaxial cable connection. I’m having difficulty getting the cable What am I Missing? Any tips?
Steve, I have a specific issue. I set up my lg55uq8000 tv with a cable remote. I would prefer to operate the tv with the cable remote. I plugged my cable in the hdmi2 port. I set the tv to turn on at hdmi2. I can not get the tv to remember to turn on to hdmi2. I set up every other tv to turn on with the cable remote direct to the hdmi port cable is plugged into. Is lg the only tv that requires using the tv remote? I also called their support, they were no help. This is driving me crazy
great video thank you for helping me Steve. I learned so much. Do you have any idea why my Fios box will not show up on my new LG B4 unless I turn off HDMI Deep Color. Two options under Deep Color: "4k" or "off" and when 4k is on i get a message saying cable box not connected and the picture does not look its best. thanks
So much info on the LG thank you so much. Trying to set up my new LG when I turn the TV on I want it to go directly to UA-cam TV of which I subscribe. Instead it's directing me to HDMI's and where I get lost. Any advice?
Hi Steve, great video, my first LG TV and am impressed LG 55 Nano76. I see in the video you're supposed to peel off the protective film from the screen front. I'm certain mine has one, although there were no corner tags, or instructions to do so. I've read conflicting opinions about whether to remove or not ... interestingly mine came with bezel protection but no back of set film. Am I deffo ok to remove the front screen protective film pls? LG 55 Nano76 bought new 26/12/23. Thanks again.
Any chance you could show tips and tricks on soundbar that's attached to the TV. Mine keeps turning off after a while and am trying to get the eArc option but can't. Thanks
Hi, this is very useful. Pls. how to use LG TV for karaoke, what format to use so we can do Karaoke, wireless microphone with mixer is already connected to TV and sound bar but we cannot seem to make it work. Thanks for your help.
Great content. Question. When I hit the guide button on the left hand side in Orange it says IP- and then numbers which I'm assuming is channels what exactly are those and can they be removed?
Thanks for this info. I have noticed that, even with energy saver off, my G1 dims throughout screenings of films. Turns out that it’s one of two under the hook settings that can’t be accessed, except through secret tech menus. Do you know about this? Apparently the TV thinks it needs to dim when a scene is playing and hasn’t changed for a while. It then brightens after a cut to a new scene. It is insanely frustrating. Again, this was not fixed by energy saving being turned off.
Totally loved this video! I have a very weird question. After spending lots of time in front of my LG TV, it appears that I have no ability to add apps. Do you think that’s the default of my model? Or do you think that there is a problem with this actual TV? ( I am specifically trying to get the PBS app to load.)
Boy, am I glad I found THIS !! Great set, but I had no idea how to set up most of the things you discuss here. I was getting pretty frustrated. Now if ONLY I could get the remote to take less than 3 seconds to open menus, change inputs, etc, this would be the perfect TV. Thanks also for the info regarding the control items hidden in the on/off switch. I was wondering how I could do anything if my dog ate my remote. I ended up purchasing an aftermarket magic remote on Amazon for 5 bucks. Works great too. The regular non-magic remote works fine for all of these items BTW
Is there a way to change the “fireworks” screensaver (without using the art gallery app)? Or at least adjust the fireworks so they don’t kick in so fast?
Comprehensive - thank you. Does any of this apply to the LG Class 4k UHD Smart LED TV model 55UQ7570PUJ or do you you have a video on this particular LG Smart TV? We're trying to do Teams and Zoom videoconferencing at work. Teams is the more important app.
Thank you for the video, this was super helpful. Do you know if there is a way to also "reprogram" the already defined shortcut buttons for Disney+, Netflix, and\or Prime?
we just started moving into a new to us residence, and it has this TV. I knew I could find something on YT to show us some tips. I had to stop the video to thank you! We will be making a lot of changes now!
Hey Steve loved the video which helped me set some of the settings on both my LG TV's! I have a NAS drive WD My Cloud where I have multiple videos stored which are stored sequentially however when I go to my LG Smart TV the same videos are not in order is there some other trick you know of that can get these to display in the correct numbered order? Trying to find answers from LG is like pulling teeth!! Hoping you may be able to help! Thanks in advance !
HELP!!! I just bought an LG TV yesterday and many of the menu items that show on this and other UA-cam videos are not included in my LG Settings. For example, in this video, we are instructed to go to "Home Settings", then "Home Auto Launch". There is no menu item enetitled "Home Auto Launch" in the Home Settings. Only "Power On Screen", "Home Protection", and "Content Recommendation". What are the alternatives here? This is the case under many categories on my new LG TV. Things that are shown on UA-cam videos are either not included in my Settings menu, or a grayed out. Can anyone give me some guidance here?
Great Video. I have a Sat Box attached to my TV. I watch TV via a Firestick. Even with the power to Sat Box turned off, I still get a pop up message every30 minutes or so, tellig me "sat Box is available". How do I turn off these pop up messages please?
Hi Steve I keep getting this white bar at the bottom of the screen with the heading ' select menu ' and you can select : AV reset; LG remote service and close ( and a few more ) This bar disappears when I press ' close ' but it reappears at least twice a week. How do I stop this. Good news: I found the ' on/off ' switch underneath the LG logo/led thingy. Thanks, very helpful. TV : LG webOS TV UM7100PLB.
Thank you for all of your information on the C1. I had no clue of what my TV was capable of. I’m grateful you have shared your knowledge and paid it forward.
Brilliant video with clear info given for some of the amazing number of settings on LG TVs. Some you mention I already knew about, some are not good for me but some are excellent - eg the ability to type in the names of Sources instead of the generic "HDMI 1" etc. Also a puzzle solved: Sometimes when I mute the speaker the hidden menu annoyingly pops up and AV Reset is activated. I now know this happens on a triple press of "mute" - but why, on doing this, does the audio level drop to 10 without me wanting to change it? And what other ok functiions are reset?
Very informative. How can I get my cable box remote to open directly to HDMI1 without seeing all the apps first and is there a quick way of going to 60 minutes sleep mode without the 7 steps I do now?
I really enjoyed your tips and a lot cover what I need. I have one question. How do I access DOFU on my LG smart tv. I have a youtube subscription. But can get dofu only thru my phone.
Hi, I was watching your video, thx by the way! I noticed your screen saver popped up, it was the art from art gallery.. how can I use my art gallery as my screen saver? I can only use the clock/weather screen saver at the moment.. thank you,
Bummer... great video with lots of great tips...Thank you... but I was really hoping I could find a way to disable or at least change the webOS logo home screen. I'm amazed there's no option to choose from a selection of wallpapers... unless I missed it. Anyone aware of a way to do it?
Hi Steve, i have an older LG webos Smart TV but cannot change the size of the subtitles. I have tried the closed caption version but it does not work. Can you tell me of any other tips you might have to reduce the size of the subtitles, please?
Enjoyed that was looking for PiP ( Display Free To Air Channels one Box and Pay TV in other ) and how to delete all the requests made to Alexa ? Thanks
Every time I turn on the tv it goes to running channel and not the webOS do you know how I would just launch and it go to the webSO I just bought the tv
Thanks for checking out this video. I hope you learned something new.

Great video Steve. I learned some things like setting the Logo brightness to low when I had mine on high!!
Glad it helped!
The high settug is the one that protects the screen the most. This is available 9n LG corporate site under preventing screen damage on OLED
I confirmed in the manual, the the Low/High refers to the amount of reduction of logo brightness (not the way described in this video). So if you want the highest protection from burn in...set it to high.
Great and useful video. Do you have any info on the newer LG's and the restarting to free up memory thing?
Here's a good one: Make sure to edit the Aspect Ratio on all inputs because for SOME REASON most TVs default to "Zoomed" or "Cinema". Should either be "Original" or "16:9" to see the full image as intended.
When I select 16.9 my screen does not adjust still cannot all of the picture?
Great video! How do we change the wallpaper folder that it automatically cycles when idling at home. The images appear in a "Samples" folder.
Be aware that the logo brightness set to high is the maximum effect where low or off is lesser dimming of bright logos.
This should be set to high as per LG website in order to help avoid screen damage.
Interesting, seems very counter intuitive. Thanks for the heads up on that.

That's quite strange. I'm sorry to say that i don't know why it's doing that.
So much info on the LG thank you so much. Trying to set up my new LG when I turn the TV on I want it to go directly to UA-cam TV of which I subscribe. Instead it's directing me to HDMI's and where I get lost. Any advice?
Hi Steve, great video, my first LG TV and am impressed LG 55 Nano76. I see in the video you're supposed to peel off the protective film from the screen front. I'm certain mine has one, although there were no corner tags, or instructions to do so. I've read conflicting opinions about whether to remove or not ... interestingly mine came with bezel protection but no back of set film. Am I deffo ok to remove the front screen protective film pls? LG 55 Nano76 bought new 26/12/23. Thanks again.
LG OLED TV have screen protective film , not the LG nano75 ( there is one , but its not intended to be removed )
Any chance you could show tips and tricks on soundbar that's attached to the TV. Mine keeps turning off after a while and am trying to get the eArc option but can't. Thanks
Steve, what are the categories: B3, C3, G4 etc? Aside from the size, which is the best? Thanks.
The B series is their lower end, then C is the middle and G is their high end.
You have great info. Question: My new 4K, LG, Thin Q, AI, does not say "OLED" when I'm really trying to follow you. HELP!!!
Does the remote have a back light feature ?
Hi, this is very useful. Pls. how to use LG TV for karaoke, what format to use so we can do Karaoke, wireless microphone with mixer is already connected to TV and sound bar but we cannot seem to make it work. Thanks for your help.
Great content. Question. When I hit the guide button on the left hand side in Orange it says IP- and then numbers which I'm assuming is channels what exactly are those and can they be removed?
Thanks for this info. I have noticed that, even with energy saver off, my G1 dims throughout screenings of films. Turns out that it’s one of two under the hook settings that can’t be accessed, except through secret tech menus. Do you know about this? Apparently the TV thinks it needs to dim when a scene is playing and hasn’t changed for a while. It then brightens after a cut to a new scene. It is insanely frustrating. Again, this was not fixed by energy saving being turned off.
Totally loved this video! I have a very weird question. After spending lots of time in front of my LG TV, it appears that I have no ability to add apps. Do you think that’s the default of my model? Or do you think that there is a problem with this actual TV? ( I am specifically trying to get the PBS app to load.)
If I'm not mistaken, you must have an LG account and be connected to the TV to install applications (and have enough free memory on the TV)
Boy, am I glad I found THIS !! Great set, but I had no idea how to set up most of the things you discuss here. I was getting pretty frustrated. Now if ONLY I could get the remote to take less than 3 seconds to open menus, change inputs, etc, this would be the perfect TV. Thanks also for the info regarding the control items hidden in the on/off switch. I was wondering how I could do anything if my dog ate my remote. I ended up purchasing an aftermarket magic remote on Amazon for 5 bucks. Works great too. The regular non-magic remote works fine for all of these items BTW
How do I get rid of the black bars when watching movies? Thanks for all your help
Is there a way to change the “fireworks” screensaver (without using the art gallery app)? Or at least adjust the fireworks so they don’t kick in so fast?
Comprehensive - thank you. Does any of this apply to the LG Class 4k UHD Smart LED TV model 55UQ7570PUJ or do you you have a video on this particular LG Smart TV? We're trying to do Teams and Zoom videoconferencing at work. Teams is the more important app.
Thank you for the video, this was super helpful. Do you know if there is a way to also "reprogram" the already defined shortcut buttons for Disney+, Netflix, and\or Prime?
Steve, do you have any tricks for only 1/4 of my screen showing on my HDMI 3&4 ports?
This was a great video. I’m looking for a way to pause live tv. Hope you can help.
How i continue changing channels voice order
Great video. How is it that your LG TV is running the fire OS?
we just started moving into a new to us residence, and it has this TV. I knew I could find something on YT to show us some tips. I had to stop the video to thank you! We will be making a lot of changes now!
Happy it helped.
Great tips and tricks. Do you know how to set default HDMI on startup?
Hey Steve loved the video which helped me set some of the settings on both my LG TV's! I have a NAS drive WD My Cloud where I have multiple videos stored which are stored sequentially however when I go to my LG Smart TV the same videos are not in order is there some other trick you know of that can get these to display in the correct numbered order? Trying to find answers from LG is like pulling teeth!! Hoping you may be able to help! Thanks in advance !
HELP!!! I just bought an LG TV yesterday and many of the menu items that show on this and other UA-cam videos are not included in my LG Settings. For example, in this video, we are instructed to go to "Home Settings", then "Home Auto Launch". There is no menu item enetitled "Home Auto Launch" in the Home Settings. Only "Power On Screen", "Home Protection", and "Content Recommendation". What are the alternatives here? This is the case under many categories on my new LG TV. Things that are shown on UA-cam videos are either not included in my Settings menu, or a grayed out. Can anyone give me some guidance here?
Looking at the LG C3 OLED. Want to use the Roku for the Spectrum app. Any suggestions for minimizing having to use both remotes?
Great Video. I have a Sat Box attached to my TV. I watch TV via a Firestick. Even with the power to Sat Box turned off, I still get a pop up message every30 minutes or so, tellig me "sat Box is available". How do I turn off these pop up messages please?
Hi Steve
I keep getting this white bar at the bottom of the screen with the heading ' select menu ' and you can select : AV reset; LG remote service and close ( and a few more ) This bar disappears when I press ' close ' but it reappears at least twice a week. How do I stop this.
Good news: I found the ' on/off ' switch underneath the LG logo/led thingy. Thanks, very helpful.
TV : LG webOS TV UM7100PLB.
Thank you for all of your information on the C1. I had no clue of what my TV was capable of. I’m grateful you have shared your knowledge and paid it forward.
Brilliant video with clear info given for some of the amazing number of settings on LG TVs. Some you mention I already knew about, some are not good for me but some are excellent - eg the ability to type in the names of Sources instead of the generic "HDMI 1" etc. Also a puzzle solved: Sometimes when I mute the speaker the hidden menu annoyingly pops up and AV Reset is activated. I now know this happens on a triple press of "mute" - but why, on doing this, does the audio level drop to 10 without me wanting to change it? And what other ok functiions are reset?
Very informative. How can I get my cable box remote to open directly to HDMI1 without seeing all the apps first and is there a quick way of going to 60 minutes sleep mode without the 7 steps I do now?
I really enjoyed your tips and a lot cover what I need. I have one question. How do I access DOFU on my LG smart tv. I have a youtube subscription. But can get dofu only thru my phone.
Hi, I was watching your video, thx by the way!
I noticed your screen saver popped up, it was the art from art gallery..
how can I use my art gallery as my screen saver?
I can only use the clock/weather screen saver at the moment..
thank you,
Thank you for everything I have changed so many settings in my LG TV because of you I really appreciate.
Question....can the sleep timer input me made into a quick button? Good video..t
Bummer... great video with lots of great tips...Thank you... but I was really hoping I could find a way to disable or at least change the webOS logo home screen. I'm amazed there's no option to choose from a selection of wallpapers... unless I missed it. Anyone aware of a way to do it?
Is there a way of connecting through my Hearing Aids to hear the TV directly through them? LG Model 42LF5800-UA
Steve can you help with pairing my Bluetooth phonak hearing aids...When they are paired ..the tv should also play through the tv speakers..Thanks.
I have two LG OLED and your tips are fantastic. I made my changes as watching this video. Thanks for the information and demonstration
Hi Steve, i have an older LG webos Smart TV but cannot change the size of the subtitles. I have tried the closed caption version but it does not work. Can you tell me of any other tips you might have to reduce the size of the subtitles, please?
Enjoyed that was looking for PiP ( Display Free To Air Channels one Box and Pay TV in other ) and how to delete all the requests made to Alexa ? Thanks
Every time I turn on the tv it goes to running channel and not the webOS do you know how I would just launch and it go to the webSO I just bought the tv
