Hey @narae0.kim, I noticed the account I provided for finally logged in yesterday, can I just confirm this was you/your team? (I didn’t get any reply to my email).

The video was downloaded in Chrome rather than played back in the LG Jellyfin app. The point of providing access to Jellyfin was so you could reproduce the issue in the LG Jellyfin app. If you have your own means of reproducing and testing the issue, note that the video and other examples can downloaded from the sources provided above.

Sorry for the late reply. Yes, our team logged into your server and downloaded the video in Chrome. However, it will take some more time to review the issue. We will keep you updated. Thank you.

Hello, any updates in this topic?

Sorry for the late reply. We are currently reviewing the fix and are checking the TV SW update schedule. It will take some time. We will keep you updated. Thank you.

Hello, sorry if I’m being impatient. But are there any updates on this?
Seems like this bug bothers a lot of people. Is there a rough estimate when this will be fixed? Thank you.

26

Sorry, but the TV SW update schedule has not been set yet. We will keep you updated. Thank you.

27

It has been month. Is there any progress? Can we get an ETA for the fix?

28

I would also like to know if there’s been any progress. It’s been quite some time now since the issue was first discovered.

Sorry for the late reply. For webOS TV 25, this issue is fixed in 33.20.65. For webOS 23/24, this will be fixed late this year or early next year. Thank you.

Does the system support bitstreaming raw uncompressed multichannel PCM 5.1/7.1 from a webOS app through eARC? In my testing is looks like it doesn’t work with the Jellyfin app, it gets downmixed to stereo instead: WebOS client does not pass through LPCM 5.1/7.1 to eARC device · Issue #7093 · jellyfin/jellyfin-web · GitHub I’m using an LG G5 with latest firmware 33.20.69.

31

Currently, that is not supported. If there are any updates, we will let you know via our website. Thank you.

I recently got the WebOS 25 update of my G4. I can confirm that the issue is fixed with firmware 33.21.85. I can now bitstream encoded audio formats like DD or DTS via an HDMI eARC connection to my AV preprocessor.

Thank you very much!

as a end user owning a LG C2, waiting nearly a year for a fix is uncceptable
european laws (norwegian laws are even more strict) clearly states within a reasonable time

Guarantees on goods bought in the EU - Your Europe

Under EU rules, if the goods you buy turn out to be faulty or do not look or work as advertised, the seller must repair or replace them at no cost. If this is impossible or the seller cannot do it within a reasonable time and without significant inconvenience to you, you are entitled to a full or partial refund. You always have the right to a minimum 2-year guarantee from the moment you received the goods. However, national rules in your country may give you extra protection.

The 2-year guarantee period starts as soon as you receive your goods.

updating the hls component thru webos app would been a much better way to fix it

The WebOS 25 update for the LG C2 fixed the issue.

Better late than never.

Thanks for the support for everyone involved.
