Hello,
I bought an LG CX 65 a few months ago and I had trouble with NOW TV pre installed. It kept freezing. Length of time varied and there was no pattern to when it happened. My connection to the internet is via wire, I have tried wireless as well. There is no problem with, Apple+ Netflix, Amazon, iPlayer etc. I thought the update the other day would solve the problem. It did not. I am watching Game of Thrones, and at the height of the Battle of the ######, I am all fired up and…..It's beyond annoying.
I contacted LG customer service and they told me to uninstall and reinstall, which I did. This improved the stopping for a few days, and then yesterday, it started stopping again. It has to be something to do with the app and NOW.TV
I have a photo of the error code. Can't see how to insert/edit image from the camera image above.
Can you tell me what to do please?
Thank you.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi @Anonymous User
This seems to be a common error code across many devices.
If unplugging the power to the television for about 2 minutes or a full factory reset on the television doesn't make any a difference.
Then somebody with an LG Smart TV with the PL-0 error message had success by doing this on their television settings.

Unfortunately i don't own an LG Smart television to offer you any further help.
Apart from type maybe something like "PL-0 error code" in the Community search box and plough through the various threads with this problem (just be aware there are a few).

Try installing the new NOW app released this week see if that helps?
As for the Samsung TV, it’s worth unplugging the router and TV for a bit to “refresh” the connection?

My Apple TV has been reset (wiped) as I had another issue with Nowtv.
as for the sammy, the network settings have been reset and hub rebooted.

Sounds like you’ll need to report it with NOW as it could be an issue at their end.
Use the links I provided to get in touch with staff.
Good luck!

No not entirely. I also have a NOW TV box, that I have had for a long time, years. I plugged that in and started to watch NOW that way. It's very slow compared to the built in app, but does work all the time. That is using wireless. For a little while I watched through the box and all was well. Yesterday, I plugged the wired connection back into the LG TV and watched one episode of Game of Thrones without a dropout. It would appear to work perfectly on the box and less dropout on the TV. Another problem started yesterday. I have been watching Oz. Great program but old, square picture. On occasions the picture lags and then catches up with itself. That may be download speed, although it's only on one program, Oz, which I would recommend by the way. Thanks for asking. Wendy
