You can keep on getting upset at me all you wish, but I'm not going to stop trying to help those who need something to get them by until the Emby devs can get you an app published by LG you're happy with. Temporary? It's been almost 2 years since the update... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant temporary as in you could sell whatever solution you came up with in order to get some of your money back once an app is approved by LG testers. Personally, I couldn't wait 2 years and no way I'm using USB if I had a new C1 because I'm too lazy. Hopefully, they can talk some sense into the people at LG soon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darkside40 92 Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 (edited) Just had a look over there at the guys of Jellyfin. Okay they dont have a WebOS Client on the Store, but what they do is to give their users a manual method how to build an install IPK's on WebOS. https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-webos Instead of trying now for two years to get an update into the LG store, wouldnt it be a better idea to simple share the source or an precompiled IPK to the Emby community and tell them: Here you got it, this is the way to install it. Take precautions and do your best! I dont know if that would have been a problem back in the days when Emby was still Open Source and the Community was really involved.

Come on, after a year and a half, hiding things, LYING, and to know what else .... Now we ask you to pass us an IPK or better yet, the source code We can sit and wait. The IPK option would be reasonable, but I think someone asked for it around here and guess what: They replied saying there was a version already in review. waaaja Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bierskill 0 Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Here´s the answer: Quote vielen Dank für Ihre Anfrage an den CEO der LG Electronics. Ich habe Ihre Anfrage mit dem dazugehörigen Link an die Entwicklungsabteilung weitergeleitet. In der Regel ist es so, dass der Anbieter einer App, in diesem Fall Emby, selbst für die Portierung und Qualität Sicherung der App zuständig ist. Daher kann ich zum aktuellen Zeitpunkt keine weiteren Informationen über eine mögliche Anpassung der App geben. Quote Thank you for your inquiry to the CEO of LG Electronics. I have forwarded your request with the associated link to the development department. It is usually the case that the provider of an app, in this case Emby, is itself responsible for the porting and quality assurance of the app. Therefore, at the current time I can not give any further information about a possible adaptation of the app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neves000 15 Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Nothing interesting, but here is the answer I got from LG France on December 2nd: Quote Cher Monsieur, Je vous remercie d'avoir contacté le Service Client LG France. Concernant votre demande relative à votre téléviseur LG OLED65GX, vous souhaitez des précisions concernant le fonctionnement des applications via le LG Content Store. Je vous informe que le LG Content Store est dépendant des éditeurs/développeurs d'applications : LG n'est pas en charge de leur développement, de leur support ou de leur maintenance. De ce fait, je vous confirme que LG ne rentre pas en ligne de compte dans le développement et la mise à disposition d'une application. En conséquence, je vous invite à vous retourner vers les développeurs de l'application EMBY. Toutefois, j'attire votre attention sur le fait que vous avez la possibilité d'installer ces applications sur votre smartphone ou votre tablette et d'effectuer un partage d'écran pour la visualiser sur votre TV. Vous pouvez aussi utiliser un périphérique externe type Chromecast, Amazon Firestick TV, Apple TV, Xiaomi Mi Box, Nvidia Shield, pour faire de même. Il est également possible d'installer les applications soit sur votre box/décodeur TV ADSL (si celle-ci est compatible) ou une console de jeux telle que la Playstation 4, PS5, Xbox One ou Xbox Series. Quote Dear Sir, Thank you for contacting LG France Customer Service. Regarding your request relating to your LG OLED65GX television, you would like details on the operation of the applications via the LG Content Store. I inform you that the LG Content Store is dependent on the publishers / developers of applications: LG is not in charge of their development, support or maintenance. Therefore, I confirm that LG does not come into play in the development and the provision of an application. Accordingly, I invite you to turn to the developers of the EMBY application. However, I would like to draw your attention to the fact that you can install these applications on your smartphone or tablet and perform a screen share to view them on your TV. You can also use an external device such as Chromecast, Amazon Firestick TV, Apple TV, Xiaomi Mi Box, Nvidia Shield, to do the same. It is also possible to install the applications either on your ADSL TV box / decoder (if it is compatible) or a game console such as the Playstation 4, PS5, Xbox One or Xbox Series.

darkside40 92 Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 What about the idea to post an ipk on the forum so people could sideload it. Just like you do it with the Android TV beta's? Messing around with LG seems to be somewhat unpleasant and leads to dissatisfaction on all sides. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spocks_Logic 0 Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Just wanted to add that I'm also perplexed that it has taken this long to get the app approved by LG. I just got the new LG C1 series TV the other week and didn't bother to check to see if the app was available as it was on my old LG device. Admin - Are you able to shed more light into the ongoing issue and reasonable ETA on when we can expect the app to be available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I have well understood the process for creating and installing the IPK, by using the LG development kit, the created IPK can be installed only on a single TV device, because that IPK contains the TV serial number hard-coded in it.

I confirm it works, but there is a minor issue that for me is annoying: in video-play/full-screen mode there is a thin grey bar at the top of the screen, which is the reduced browser bar. To be discovered if there is a way (a possible browser option) for removing it... I looked for a similar option, but with no success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nabla79 4 Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Regarding the app publishing on the TV LG app store... I'm wondering of there if the Emby software creator are using the correct channel for requesting the app publishing. Probably there could be other channels/methods/LG-reference-persons to be contacted for making the publishing process faster.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
