Hi MrTime.HI ;
I am considering
LG Nano79 43 inch 4K NanoCell TV
I need component video in for my existing DVD player
optical audio out to sound system / wired ethernet
currently using NOW tv and FIRESTICK in my hdmi ( not simultaneiusly )
I think the LG has NOW tv app;
have been trying EMBY server and PLEX server through wi-fi to FIRESTICK
i cant find any reference to these apps on the LG web os
is there a comprehensive list of available apps? i see netflix and prime ; dont see spotify
is there any reasonable alternative in the 43inch under €500 range
not too concerned with talking to TV; or bluetooth or basic sound; small speakers in flat screens cant beat hifi
Bill
Thanks for the post.
The 43Nano is not one that we have stocked unfortunately.
Its not on our stock listing so I don't think I can even get my hands on it.
At the minute for us the Nano796 starts at 50" priced at 519 Euro. Stock is very limited on this one.
LG show they have Now TV app on board.
The below link shows what is available from LG
https://gb.lgappstv.com/main
However we can not guarantee all of these apps as this is down LG and they can pull support at any time.
I no that at the moment the 2020 sets don't have any UK catch up TV apps. LG said they would add them but gave no ETA for this to take place.
It might be best to stick with your firestick for the like of PLEX and EMBY.
Component will be the kicker as most manufacturers have dropped this input on their products.
In a 43" LG have the 43UN81006 priced at 459 Euro (Has Component)
https://euro.richersounds.ie/p-204662-lg-43un81006lb-43-inch-4k-ultra-hd-hdr-smart-led-tv-freeview-hd-freesat-hd.aspx
Again we are awaiting on more of these to arrive from LG. (Hopefully arriving before the end of the week)
I've checked Samsung, Sony and Panasonic and none of their 43" sets have component within in this price range.
Let me know your thoughts.
sadly the wife was impatient and we purchased locally; slightly more expensive than you
we opted for the 50 inch model but all info seems to confirm that 43 and 50 have identical specs
generally pleased with quality but have a major disapointment with changing from terestrial to satelite channels
I can not find any way to set up a combined channel list . The store cannot demonstrate but they SAY it is possible
the literature provided is sparse ; It is possible to set favourite lists for each ( sat or Terrestrial )
apps available include Plex and Emby ; RTE player is fine ;and TG4 ; but as you say no UK catchup
with addition of external USB drive it can record and pause ;
surprised that it can control the firestick too ; firestick has ALL 4 but LG doesnt ; NOW and Disney are also on LG0 -

Sorry we could not get your business this time around.
There is no way to combine the Satellite and standard television stations on the one channel guide.
You have to use the two separate EGPs unfortunately.
Glad you are enjoying you new set and don't forget us if you require anything else in future.0 -

is that typical of other brands
I would at least have hoped for a button on the remote ; it seems that you ned to select the guide on screen and then go to filters to selece alternative guide0 -

Its across the board unfortunately.
Both are always put on separate EPG's.
You need to do the same on other manufacturers also where you need to select between the two tuners to get the EPG's for each.0 -
