It does in light grey. As long as you don't binge watch for months you're OKThats a great news. Do you see a hotstar logo on screen while playing videos from the app? I am worried if that is going to cause image retention or burn-in issues on Oled TVs
Hey I have a LG 43UH650T model and I don't see the app listed. It is from 2017. Is it only coming for latest TVs ?
has the LG B6(2016) oleds got the app too? any B6 owners can confirm? as room under renovation & the tv is packed up.
My wife may watch it whole day and also difficult to explain her about OLED. If I tell her about the burn in issue it can cause then she will never agree to buy OLED spending a fortune.It does in light grey. As long as you don't binge watch for months you're OK

TV shows and movies are fine.it doesnt seem to be high-res, very pixelated like it's low bitrate. is it any different with premium account?
Checked on a 2018 LG UHD TV too. It works fine.Hey I have a LG 43UH650T model and I don't see the app listed. It is from 2017. Is it only coming for latest TVs ?
LG is known for this behaviour. They never support older models. They even removed Youtube support from my 2014 top of the line 3D TV.So I guess, 2017 and before are left in the dark. Smart TVs are bad bet then. We should simply get the media streamers which get regular updates. Something reliable like Apple TV or Fire Stick etc
well its not an LG issue but lazy Hotstar developers. My 2016 B6 has all the video streaming's apps available in India, including Zee5 etc.LG is known for this behaviour. They never support older models. They even removed Youtube support from my 2014 top of the line 3D TV.
"Smartness" of a device, TV in this case, is dependent on the existing support/eco-system at the time of release.So I guess, 2017 and before are left in the dark. Smart TVs are bad bet then. We should simply get the media streamers which get regular updates. Something reliable like Apple TV or Fire Stick etc
This is all on HotStar. LG does not develop third party apps.LG is known for this behaviour. They never support older models. They even removed Youtube support from my 2014 top of the line 3D TV.
I am able to play GOT without any issues on my C8. Which model are you using? What is the webos version you are on?I am having really bad experience with the app. its super buggy, i reinstalled it but same result.
here is what happens
1. GOT has never worked it plays normally for first 2 3 seconds and then it starts hanging frame by frame with the sound moving ahead of the frame, its like watching a gif image. I am using a 30mbps line which has no issues playing 4k UHD titles on amazon prime, netflix or you tube.
2. Most movies also play the way GOT episodes play.
3. Tried watching a web series City of Dreams and the audio language was bengali and it kept giving bengali as output no matter what langauage i chose.
4. Changing the audio language reset the play timer to zero and it would start playing from the beginning every time the language was changed.
5. Max resolution is 720p and not 1080 its quiet pixelated.
6. Sound output is stereo or mono no surround sound support what so ever.
is this faced by others as well or is it just me?
My model number is 55UJ632T and it is on the latest version.I am able to play GOT without any issues on my C8. Which model are you using? What is the webos version you are on?
