LG TV Upgrade

Post by vission »

My LG OLED Tv was just upgraded to webOS 24, it looks to me that the HDHomeRun app is no longer available nor can it be installed. Will SD be upgrading their app to support webOS 24+?

We have an updated version that will be (or might already be) submitted to LG for them to review. There was some confusion or complication of some sort that was causing LG to not approve updates or the app for newer TVs, but we might have a resolution for that in this new version.

Any update to the HD HomeRun app not working on WebOS 24 situation? I would like to move to WebOS 24 but need to know I will not loose my DVR playback as a result. Thanks!

No HDHomeRun Support on WebOS 24

Post by Velobliss »

I went ahead and purchased a new LG OLED55C4 this weekend after noticing the HDHomeRun app description in the LG Content Store now shows support for 2024 TV models running WebOS 24. It turns out this is not the case. HDHomeRun app does not show up in the LG Content Store when searching from the new OLED55C4. Why is it that the HDHomeRun app is not available for an OLED55C4 running WebOS 24, but is available for a 55QNED85UQA running WebOS 24?

Enabling the app for any new models requires approval from LG and such approval has not been forthcoming.
