The LG Magic remote trick that NOBODY knows!

[@Jaylou88]

I no longer need a Bluetooth adapter which I would previously need to hear audio from my PS5 to my AirPods when playing on my C1!!! Amazing!! Thank you for this!!!!

[@garysgreat1]

Thank you for this Video. From watching this, I can now cast my Phone to my TV. Great stuff 👍 😀 Got to say you helped me upgrade from a Sony XH90 to this LG C1 and I'm absolutely chuffed to bits. Best TV I have ever owned!

[@paulbusby2013]

As a retired electronics engineer, I do tend to explore the options more thoroughly than many. I often cast KZbin from my phone to the TV or listen over Bluetooth that reverts to the TV's speakers instead of the optical out after use which is annoying! The Think app will turn on the TV from standby but the paid-for "LG Remote" app doesn't though it does a lot more. My firmware is now on 03.21.05. Alexa works well but I have voice recognition turned off on the TV 'cos it was triggering itself!

[@BuckMcAntlerson]

I do the same and mine switches to HDMI a lot and I have to put it back to optical

[@joebiggs4387]

Do you have to pay for the Alexa? It was free for a while on my 2019 model LG but not anymore. TIA!

That first tip is life changing big fella! This will be very helpful for watching TV downstairs when the wifey is asleep. Or when I am cooking in the kitchen, and still trying to watch television. I no longer have to blast the TV to hear it because of the distance. And small critique, ThinQ is pronounced, "Think."

That is actually very useful. Let’s say you want to watch tv at night and you don’t have a wireless headset. You can use this feature to get the TVs sound to your phone and connect your wired headphones and listen from it.

[@mtbert9307]

I didn’t know this, great feature. Not sure how much I’d use it but I really like things like this. Doesn’t seem to be as simple on an iPhone, the nfc won’t trigger anything unless you select nfc from control centre, then it just opens up the ThinQ app, once you’re in the ThinQ app you can select to have the TV audio come from your phone. Looks a lot more convenient on an android.

[@videobandit]

Ditto I don’t have the option to enable NFC on my C1 as my remote does not have the “N” symbol on the magic remote. Not sure I would use this feature much so not really sad it’s missing. I use screen mirroring on my phone when I want to project audio or video to the C1 from my iPhone.

[@natesworld315]

I could see this feature useful for the hearing impaired. Not sure if this is possible, but is there a way to have audio streaming simultaneously to your phone and the TV? Is the audio streaming to your phone using WIFi? If this could work, each person could control volume independently. There might also be a way to use Bluetooth. I had a cable box once that could play audio on headphones and still broadcast through the TV speakers. Better than spending hundreds on a specialized adapter. Unsure if it will work on this TV.

[@FritzFantom]

Although the person can also simply connect headphones directly to the tv via Bluetooth and listen to both tv and headphones… 🎧

[@yogenleo]

Pls make a vdo on how to connect the tv to a speaker via bluetooth. Well it gets connected and the audio plays on the speaker but somehow it also plays on the tv as well. How cn it be played only on the speaker via bluetooth??

Well anyway the E8 was discontinued so they eventually offered me a replacement. I paid a little extra and purchased the LG GX OLED. At least contact customer services for if anything just to make them aware and if the worst comes to worst you've at least got the ball rolling!

Good afternoon brotha hope all is well and Happy New Years and love your videos bro keep them coming💪🏻 also I have a real quick question it may be a dumb question but I just bought an LG C1 tv and just installed it yesterday and when I turn off my tv with the controller pressing the red button last night the red light came on on the middle of the tv same as my LG CX but after a couple of minutes I heard a click sound and the red light went off and it never came back on like my CX that’s always on when the tv is off is that normal or is there something I have to do?? The tv turns on perfectly fine and off but the red light never came back on when I turn it off and I just want to make sure that without the red light on it’s still doing it’s job every 4hrs refreshing the pixels so there won’t be any burn ins and that’s just my concern at the moment and thank you for your time and God Bless🙏🏻

[@TheTechGiantYouTube]

Hi mate, Happy New Year to you too. It's nice to receive some positive comments,as today I've some really abuse ones. Anyway,the click after a few minutes could just be the TV powering down after the automatic pixel refresher,but that said it is odd that the red light went out and now doesn't work. What I would suggest is to see if it has been shut off in the settings. So what you need to do is go - main settings General System Additional Settings Standby Light See if that is checked on or off Let me know how you get on mate 🙂

Maybe the aggressive ASBL of I had to hazard a guess. It's such a stupid "feature" IMO being dumb enough to dim an already dark screen. If you don't know ASBL is auto static logo brightness limiter (I think) which will dim a dark scene if present for prolonged periods in certain content thinking a scene is static/ has a static logo present. Some people complain about ABL which can dim a bright screen too (auto brightness limiter I think).
