LG To Upgrade WebOS Smart TVs, Demos HDR Content

LG To Upgrade WebOS Smart TVs, Demos HDR Content

Consumer Electronics Sep 2,2015 0

Owners of LG Electronics' webOS 1.0 Smart TV owners will soon receive a free Value Pack Upgrade which include four main features of the latest webOS 2.0 platform. In addition, this week at IFA 2015 LG will demonstrate High Dynamic Range (HDR)-enabled TV and broadcasting technologies. LG says that the upgraded LG webOS TVs will receive My Channels, Quick Setting, Input Picker and Live Menu, a more intuitive layout, shortcuts, quicker boot-up time and faster response when switching between applications.

My Channels allows users to place their favorite Live TV Channels or Set-top Box Channels on the Launcher Bar for more convenient access. Quick Settings lets viewers adjust their webOS TVs without interrupting the program they are watching and Input Picker allows connected devices to be recognized instantly for immediate use. The upgrade also improves the UI (User Interface) of Live Menu for easier and more intuitive searching of content.

The upgrade for webOS 1.0 will begin rolling out starting September 21. Owners of webOS 1.0 TVs who have the automatic update option enabled will receive the upgrade automatically. If automatic update is not enabled, users will receive a pop-up message on their screen to guide them through the easy upgrade process, step by step.

This week at IFA 2015 in Berlin, LG will demonstrate High Dynamic Range (HDR)-enabled TV and broadcasting technologies in cooperation with broadcasters and content providers. The highlight will be a demonstration of BBC Research & Development’s HDR content transmitted to LG 4K OLED TVs.

LG will hold the world’s first demonstration of HDR Hybrid broadcast broadband TV 2.0 (HbbTV 2.0) content on LG 4K OLED TVs. The BBC HDR content will be streamed by the EBU (European Broadcasting Union) which will employ an adaptive bitrate streaming technology, MPEG DASH, also known as Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP. This technology enables HDR content streaming over the Internet to be delivered from conventional HTTP web servers.

What’s more, LG and its partners will demonstrate the transmission of satellite HDR content, utilizing SES ASTRA’s established satellite systems.
Visitors to LG’s booth will be able to experience HDR content delivered via BROADCOM’s set-top box, which delivers HDR content via HDMI. Audiences will be able to see and compare the visual impact of HDR content against current industry standard content.
