The State of LG TV Media Playback

In WebOS 25, LG finally added support for Dolby Vision in MKV, but they broke other things along the way, leading many people to regret updating their firmware.

See our summary, our recommendations, and our plan at https://t.co/ftwJhOqRiz

[Universal Media Server @UMS16]

We have been applying API fixes, which should improve the chances of getting a good result, especially for newly-released content.

These fixes are available to all, no updates necessary.

Please let us know about any missing metadata or thumbnails and we will look into it.

[Universal Media Server @UMS16]

In 15.2.0 we have added Audioaddict Network support, fixed playback bugs, and added support for more LG and Samsung TVs, including the newest ones.
