Well finally got my new LG TV and very nice it is too, but how do I access Freesat broadcasts? The satellite cable is connected and the channels were recognised and tuned at set up, but all I can get is Freeview. The manuals are next to useless Cheers @Anonymous User
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi @Anonymous User
Thanks for your post and welcome to the forum. Yeah I read that too. I bought the 49UH770 as it's "super UHD" & has Dolby Vision, though u need Netflix I think for that, Mine is only 49" so to be honest, I don't think 4K would look any better thAn 1080p. NOW TV looks ok, the sound really lets it down though. tHE INSTRUCTIONS ARE AWful.
Yes, if u have a movie trial you should be able to get 14 days ent pass. It'll be an option if u go to My Account > My Passes. To be honest, I find it much better value than the movies package, which I don't bother with as there's no 5.1
Hope this helps

Hi @Anonymous User
I seem to be a bit late to this party. Sorry about that I'm a tennis fanatic, so I've been watching the tennis. TV transmission type is usually dealt with during initial setup. Or at least it was on my TV, you could choose between terrestrial or satellite.
Britain's wheelchair tennis players Hewitt and Reid won the wheelchair tennis doubles they beat the number one seeds.

Have to say I thoroughly recommend LG TVs to anyone looking. NOW TV app is great. You just don't get any instructions! I tried a Samsung & a Panasonic and this wipes the floor with them

Thanks for the recommendation @Anonymous User.
I'm on the hunt for a 65" telly and was really hoping that the OLED B6's were going more affordable. But at £4300.00 they arn't. And when it comes to LED televisions, the (back lit) Panasonic DX902B is truly excellent at £3000.00 but even with my (potential) Viera VIP Club discount it's more that I'm willing to fork out. So the (edge lit) LG 65UH770V is looking pretty attractive 😉

Well @SeeMoreDigital it's driven me to drink today with crappy instructions, but it wipes the fllor with the Samsung & Panasonic I had and sent back. I'm really pleased with it

I'm really pleased for you
Have you tried sending (casting) any video files to it from a Windows 10 computer yet? I view all my work encodes on my current 60" '2K' LG television by casting them from my laptop...
One really useful feature that the LG's have over all the Panasonic's (apart from the NOW TV app ofcourse) is they support native playback of (.m2ts or .mkv) files that contain DTS audio. Oh... and if the TV is hooked up to the internet using a 'wired' ethernet connection, the TV can be configured to offer a WiFi 'hotspot'...
