Note: this is not a request for troubleshooting help.
For the past few years my 10ish year old âsmartâ TV will maybe once a week or so completely lose the ability to play sound in the Youtube app, and only in the Youtube app. Sound works just fine everywhere else. Bizarrely this is always triggered by an ad and never a video. Restarting the app doesnât fix it, and neither does clearing the cache. Fortunately doing a full restart of the TV fixes it, itâs just irritating to have to restart because an ad somehow broke the sound.
What technological gremlins haunt you?
Small world. My 47LM8600 LG TV (which is 3D, from 2015!) occasionally fails to pop up its pop up menu when asked, the one that has the input list and so forth in it. Instead it shows a vague error about âmemory problemâ and prompts the user to factory reset the TV.
Turning it fully off and back on again fixes it, and the issue wonât reoccur for usually several months.
Wow. Nice group of people with old LG WebOS TVs! I have an 42LBsomething with 3D. Works fine. Sometimes the YouTube App crashes because itâs out of memory. But nowadays with all the ADs itâs barely usable anyways.
