client for LG TV (WebOS1 aka Netcast)

[vangeliis 8]

Hi,

 

Apologies in advance if this has been answered before, but is there a better client for Emby rather than the build-in LG media player app (smart share)?

 

TIA,

Vangeliis

for now: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/40456-screenplay-for-webos-20-and-higher-tvs/page-1

the official app has also been submitted to LG for approval.

Hi mastrmind11

 

Many thanks for your reply.

I did a search on the LG app store for Screenplay but got no hit. Does Screenplay support WebOS1 or WebOS2 and above? Will the official Emby app support WebOS1?

The Emby app will be webos 1+.

That's great news, cannot wait now.

Hi... I need a Media Player for my LG 47LA6200 with Netcast.. since the orginal app (smartshare) is unable to let me choose Audio Track and Subtittles, when I want to play via USB.

 

In the LGapptv.com  I can´t find any player for USB-drive source,  they are many players but for IPTV or Server Streaming.

 

Any help???

Is DLNA a possibility rather that USB?

No.. my wireless network is far away, because that I use a USB Hard Drive

If your TV has an ethernet port you could use a pair of powerline adapters to bring wired network to your TV? I have been used powerline adaptors for years now and had to issues with streaming.

Do you have an Emby client for Netcast LGs now or DLNA is the only option?

[Luke 42077]

Still at this time only Dlna, but we are looking into it. Thanks.

47LA6200-SA

[Luke 42077]

Ok, that is a netcast model, which we currently do not have an app for. We are investigating it though.

I think the easiest way to do what you want is to get yourself a chromecast stick or fire stick or roku ( I would recommend a shield tv but pricier) and cast directly to your TV from your PC.
