Super informative, very clear, and concise. Thanks for putting so much actually useful information in a very clear presentation.
Thanks Joe!
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.
Thank you. How did you get to the setting on fire TV. Please
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
I just purchase a LG-C1 48" and these tip are just what I needed.. Thanks so much 👍🏽✌🏾
Excellent tutorial. Thank you much. I’ve had a C1 for a few days and this info will help me finish setting it up.
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.
I'm not even half way through this and it's already gold. Thank you sir.
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 👍✌️ ❤️🌍
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.
Outstanding, I just finished a remodel and I finally had time to get my LG smart tv the way I wanted, and this helped a lot. Thanks
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.
I have two LG OLED and your tips are fantastic. I made my changes as watching this video. Thanks for the information and demonstration
I just bought a 75 inch LG TV and this video quick button press definitely helped...Thank You!
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?
Wow, thank you! We haven't bought a new TV since 2008! Thank you for the quick assist!
Very helpful tips! Bought an 42" LG C2 for $799 and I love it. My 1st OLED
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.
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?
This is great; learned a ton, re: things I had no idea about, about my new C1; thanks Steve!
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 just purchased a C1 77". Your video was extremely helpful!
Thank for this!! Some of these features will be really nice to set up and use. Good work!
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.
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.
Thank you for everything I have changed so many settings in my LG TV because of you I really appreciate.
Hello, great video! I wonder whether it would be possible to create a shortcut on a remote or on a smartphone to a function that is hidden behind some menu levels like "Screen Off"? It would be helpful i.e. when streaming music through tv. This way the screen would not have to be on for longer listening sessions when it is not really needed.
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"
Unnecessary unless the same thing is on the screen for days.
@@DefinitelyNotMyRealName Maybe unnecessary - But Safer. Better Safe than Sorry.
@@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.
@@DefinitelyNotMyRealName 1000% wrong
Thank you for taking the time to clarify!!! I'm glad I saw this comment
This made my life so much easier with my new LG tv! Thanks so much!
Hi Steve...great video, just what we all need !!
Any chance you could tell me if there's a way to enlarge the guide screen, it's too small for me to see ?
Good video. Did you mention the exact TV model that this applies to? Are the secret menus also a part of older LG TVs, like models from 2018?
Thanks for all the tips for the LG TV! Enjoying your videos! Question, is there a way to make the Roku home screen the default for the LG TV when powered on? Also can the LG remote be trained to navigate the Roku device?
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
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.
Learned so much from this. Thank you. Is there any way to change the screen saver picture to a different one
Thank you for this! Ive had this Oled lg2 and did not know most of this. Thank you again. Amazing!
Happy to hear that it helped.
Great Video! Thanks for the tips they are very useful :-)
Hi Steve great information there, do you have any information about the screen saver?
Thanks so much for this. I am trying to find out how I can record from my lg smart TV. Do you have any tips?
Great and useful video. Do you have any info on the newer LG's and the restarting to free up memory thing?
Lots of good stuff, thanks. Want to get the most out of my new C1. Big issue is getting the magic remote to control my DirecTV box. My box is a HR54-500 DTV remote is a RC73. Right now I need to use the DTV remote to change channels. Any wisdom for that one? Got a feeling DTV wants you to need to use their control so you'll spend $$ with their pay stuff.
Thanks for this video it was absolutely brilliant mate 👍🏻 have you any idea how to connect your lg magic remote to an lg sound bar so you can use the remote for volume? I can only use the remote with Bluetooth but would like to use with optical input from the sound bar many thanks again
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.
THANK YOU for this video! 2wks ago I was watching a movie from the LG movies app, and the ads were at a higher volume than the movie. I had to CONSTANTLY turn the volume up and down. Imagine doing that for 2hrs.!😡All I was thinking was, it would be nice if it could auto-volume adjust.😞 Then I come across THIS!😮(your video). You have NO idea how much this means to me!😂😂😂
Sometimes it's the little things,...ya know?😊
You just gained a new Subbie!😃
Steve you are awesome. Thank you so much for useful and helpful video.
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?
Great video Steve. I used several of your tips however I cannot get my LG 77” OLED TV to turn off the subtitles. Closed Caption is turned off on the tv settings menu
Super helpful! Thank you 🌻
I don't have a fancy expensive smart TV LG. But the shortcuts worked. Thank you.
Great video, do you know how to set a specific app to auto launch when turning on the TV?
Hello. Love your videos😊
Is there any way I can lock parental controls for the web browser from my Lg smart tv???
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?
Same question!!
Nope, their ui is garbage but youve probably learned that by now.
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.
Loved all this! Thank you so much
Got the 55 LG C1. Handy tips. Many thanks.
Is there a way to display a clock / time on the screen saver? Thank you- and I found this video SUPER helpful
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 !
Oh my GOOOOD. I had the TV for more than 3 months and I have never noticed the protective plastic on the back =/ ... Thank you so much!
Did you have a hard time peeling it off? Mine is pretty stuck and I’m afraid I might damage it
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.
Hi - thanks for this great video. I am interested in your recommendations on using the LG TV (WebOS) as "dumb" TV bypassing all "smart" features. I strongly prefer using external AVR, set-top box or streamer like Apple TV.
My goal is to only turn on (or automatically wake up) my TV and never see any smart TV or TV OS interface.
I would appreciate your opinion and recommendations - cheers!
Great video. Stumbled across if after having difficulties with my LG C1. I keep randomly getting the ThinQ AI feature recommending content in the random of whatever I'm watching.
Thanks for the tips
How did you get the clock on the wallpaper?
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 )
Steve, that is a great video with so many things I never knew. I recently bought an LG - 43UQ8000AUB which has the same exact remote control. I have the NFC Tag on my remote just like yours and my TV and IPhone 8C are both on the same wireless network. When I hold my IPhone over the NFC Tag, nothing happens. Is there anything else I should try?
Great vid. How do you set the TV to start on a specific app? I only stream with Hulu and would like the TV when turned on to begin on the Hulu app. Thanks.
Super helpful - Thank you!!
Hello Steve ,The Tips you have shared is great and thank you million times . Sam
Thanks for the great tips.
How do I operate ‘pause live TV’ using a HDD drive on the GI? I previously had this connected to a Panasonic TV via HDMI.
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?
Thanks great info . Can you tell us how you got the time to show on TV. thats one thing drives me crazy since I cut the cable cord
Great video. How is it that your LG TV is running the fire OS?
Hey Steve which security home camera do you prefer (Reolink Argus 3 or Arlo Essential spotlight cam)? Thanks again
Reolink- no subscription fees :)
Thanks for the tips they are very useful.
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?
This was a great video. I’m looking for a way to pause live tv. Hope you can help.
Hi Steve, if you've covered this elsewhere please point me in the right direction, but can I set-up my LG TV to view the picture folders on my home PC? They're both on the same Wi-Fi network, so I imagine there could be a way for them to talk to each other. Cheers.
Omg, I am so not comfortable with buying new technology.. This video has really help me set my TV up. Thank you.
Thanks for the info. Any idea how we can set up multi view between hdmi 1 and hdmi 2?
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?
Steve, awesome vid and thank you, I just bought a LG 75 in. 4K UHD Smart LED TV 75UQ7050ZUD, with The α5 Gen 5 AI Processor. Preparing for cutting the umbilical cord of cable TV. Thanks again and i will rate and view your other vids as well!
Thanks. Wish the remote had backlighting!! Would purchase one if available!!
Great video very helpful for my new 86’ LG 86UQ80
Hi Steve! I noticed that the apps fr Web0s have some image issues....weird pixelations, colors, other anomalies. But when I stream the same show through my Google Chromecast on that TV, no issues. Seems to be clearly a WebOS issue. Any tips? Stinks to have to switch over inputs!
This is such a big help thank you so much!!
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.
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?
Thank you for the video. Is there anyway I can stop the pointer from wiggling and have it like the old remotes.
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.
Outstanding! Thank you so much 👍🏾
Great tips and tricks. Do you know how to set default HDMI on startup?
Just used this help,good job mate,thanks.
Very useful tips. Thank you!
Brilliant vid! So helpful!!
Hi Steve, great job on the video. I have the 65NANO75UPA and trying to show my photographs using the media player as I have the TV connected to a NAS server. For some reason, the jpg or Tiff files I have appear tiny (thumbprints) and when I get them to show 'full screen' are poor quality. My images are high quality (some up to 35 MB) as I exported them via LightRoom. Is there a trick, setting or type of photo image that I need to use to see them at their proper quality? I noticed the sample images that appear much better than mine are jpg and only up to 7.5 MB - so I figure I must be missing something. I am trying to avoid the PC connection to HDMI as using the central server is so much more convenient. Your help would be appreciated.
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!
I think you can with Alexa
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!
Hey, you mght be able to set it up as picture in picture soo you can see when you switch back to the game. I have seen it in the settings somewhere
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.
Super cool video. Many thanks for sharing.
Hi, loved your video, very informative. When we 1st had our tv it had random screen saver pictures, but somehow, it now shows our family photos, but I don’t like that. Please can you tell me how to take those off and put back the random photos? Hope you can help. Thank you in advance. Marilyn
I would also like to know this!
Great video, thinking about buying an LG tv. I really want to see what the EPG looks like though.
Hugely helpful information which, years ago, would presumably have been in an instruction manual. Now, cheapskate manufacturers save the considerable cost of writing and printing manuals and leave their users in the dark. Disgraceful. Thank heavens for this UA-camr and his ilk who make up for the penny-pinching manufacturers, like LG in this case. Well done.
Is there anything you can do to a fix how long it takes to load when you push the "smart home" button? Mine is not as fast as it used to be and takes a decent amount of time before I can scroll through the apps. I noticed that it takes long due to the top middle "widget", basically the top middle box when you push the "smart home" button. Any help would be greatly appreciated! ive been searching for hours. thank you for the all cool tips, I like that preprogram numbers one
