LG Smart Share is an application specially designed for TVs that allows you to share data from your computer. If you purchased a Smart TV from the appropriate manufacturer, you do not need to use a cable to connect to your PC. You just need to install the appropriate application on your TV and receive data from your computer.

About installing TV channels

You understand how to prepare and connect your device, and now you can configure programs on the model and begin to fully use the LG TV. To do this you will need a remote control, it is always included in the kit. All operations are carried out only with the help of this important element.

To set up digital or analog TV on LG, you will need to press the “Menu” button on the remote control. On the latest TVs, smart access for digital TV can be achieved through the “Home” button, after which you need to select the settings item.

Satellite dish and receiver

Each option has its pros and cons, and how to properly configure an LG TV to work with a specific network depends only on the solution you choose.

Setting up DLNA on TV (LG Smart Share)

On the TV, just go to Smart TV and select Smart Share (unfortunately, I don’t know how to do this on other TVs, or in models without Smart TV).

Go to the Connected device . We already have two DLNA servers there. The one in the form of Windows Media Player is a server created in a standard player (the first method). You can open it and view the files.

The second DLNA server is the one we created in the Smart Share program. That's what we need. Let's open it.

We see the available folders. To open our folder to which we have opened access, go to the All folders .

Open it and run the file we need. In my case, a movie.

That's all! Settings are complete!

Update

If you have any problems with setup, with the Smart Share program, or you, for example, have a different TV, then I have prepared an article on how to set up a DLNA server using the Home Media Server program (UPnP, DLNA, HTTP )". Which we have already talked about more than once in the comments. Here are the instructions - Setting up a DLNA server using the “Home Media Server (UPnP, DLNA, HTTP)” program. We view files from the computer on the TV.

Built-in dvb receiver in the device, its use and sharing

The built-in receiver, which is installed in an LG TV, can significantly facilitate the process of receiving a signal. The receiver in most of the latest models from Koreans supports the modern dvb t2 standard.

But what does dvb t2 do on LG TVs? The most important thing is the opportunity not to buy equipment from the operator and save a lot at this point. You will need to purchase a dvb antenna and then connect your own receiver to it.

Naturally, this is not all the operations and setting up TV on a model from LG will require direct contact with the operator. You need to purchase a cam module to decrypt the signal and convert it into an image, and an access card from the company.

An alternative option is also possible on models with dvb card sharing. It requires connecting your model to wifi, because all data is transmitted via the Internet. How to set up wifi on a modern LG TV - just go to settings and find your network. But what are the advantages of cardsharing using a dvb module?

Sharing on an LG TV allows you to connect to the signal through access cards of other users.
Card sharing for a TV from LG reduces the cost of paying for services.
Card sharing is easily carried out through special servers; a constant connection to wifi is required.

Playing content using LG SmartShare

After completing the settings process, it's time to launch media content. To do this you need:

Go to SmartTV and select SmartShare.
On the new model with WebOS, select SmartShare, go to the “Connected devices” tab and select the server created on the PC.
Open the required folder and start the desired movie or song.

The procedure is completed. In the tabs with media content, all materials from folders open on your computer or mobile device will be visible.

If the DLNA server is not visible on the PC, but SmartShare was configured correctly there and the TV and computer are connected to the same network, then you will need to disable the antivirus or firewall. After this, you need to check the SmartShare settings and restart the external device and TV. You also need to make sure your TV is connected to your router.

To control media playback using SmartShare from your computer, you need to:

Right-click on the SmartShare icon in the lower right corner and open it.
In a small window you will need to make a choice between video, photo and music, but such switches can be made within the program itself.
To play media files, you need to right-click on the selected file, click “Play with” and select the name of the TV.

The playback process will start on the TV, and on the computer in the window that opens it will be possible to control the playback process.

There is no need to search for content directly on the TV. The program also has other interesting functions - for example, you can create a list of media files to launch them one by one.

Iptv on LG

Setting up iptv on a modern LG TV is a welcome solution to getting rid of TV operators. Setting up iptv begins with connecting to LG wifi in order to receive digital broadcasting via the World Wide Web. To do this, go to settings and find your router.

To watch iptv, you do not need card sharing to your LG TV. You simply use network resources and receive a signal from online services via wifi.

To understand how to further configure iptv on LG, we follow a simple algorithm:

Select the country and update the software.
Register on the manufacturer’s website and log in to your account.
Download the SS IPTV application from the LG store.
We go into the program and enter the necessary parameters.

Using these tools you can watch digital TV anywhere in the country. The devices are not dependent on cable networks or the Internet.
Cable connection	Through cable you can receive both digital and analogue channels, it all depends on your operator. The advantage of this method is that it does not require lengthy installation, but only laying the cable into the apartment.
Through the Internet	In this case, the model connects via wifi to the router. It does not require purchasing a receiver or other equipment, and you can only use the World Wide Web for viewing.

Cardsharing on TV

One of the most popular satellite network channels is NTV+ with a different set of packages - a list of channels that are available at different prices for a particular package. Currently, card sharing of NTV+ and similar channels is very common.

In order to understand how to do this, it is enough to know the following sequence:

a paid card is inserted into the receiver in order to start broadcasting to one TV;
after that, via wi-fi (most modern TVs are equipped with it) we install the necessary software, which can also be operated remotely from another device;
in the software we receive similar keys to the receiver, which are entered from another TV, to which the broadcast is “linked” via an additional analog cable or bluetooth.

Of course, broadcasters count on the conscientiousness of citizens who will use one receiver per TV, but cardsharing technology allows you to save money and at the same time use the cable television that you paid for without any problems.

What is Screen Share on LG TVs and how does it work?

A little information about the function itself. If you are not interested in this, you can immediately go to the instructions and complete the setup. There are two main technologies that allow you to transfer images from one device to another over the air (roughly speaking, over Wi-Fi). These are Miracast and Intel WiDi. They work based on Wi-Fi Direct technology. So, LG TVs (which have Smart TV and Wi-Fi) have support for Miracast and Intel WiDi. And it's called Screen Share.

The TV can act as a wireless display and receive images from other devices that also support Miracast and Intel WiDi. And these are modern smartphones, tablets, laptops and desktop computers. As for Android phones, Miracast support is available on almost all devices. Miracast on laptops and PCs works on Windows 8.1 and Windows 10. You also need support from the video card and Wi-Fi adapter. As for Intel WiDi, Intel has stopped supporting this technology and recommends using Miracast.

You can mirror the screen from an iPhone to an LG TV only on those models that support AirPlay 2. LG has TVs that support AirPlay 2 (usually expensive models). This cannot be done via Miracast, since the iPhone does not support this technology. Well, or buy an Apple TV set-top box and connect it to your TV. More details in this article: how to duplicate the screen of an iPhone or iPad to a TV.

If you have a regular LG TV without Smart TV, Wi-Fi and, accordingly, without support for Miracast (Screen Share), then you can use a special Miracast adapter that connects to the TV via HDMI.

A few more words about another, similar DLNA technology, which is also supported by LG TVs. DLNA from Miracast (Screen Share) differs in that using DLNA you can stream photos, videos and music (only specific files) from devices to your TV over a local network. And with Miracast you can completely duplicate the screen and sound from your phone or computer. In the case of DLNA, devices are connected via a local network (via a router), while Miracast uses a direct connection between the phone and LG TV via Wi-Fi. You can see my instructions for setting up DLNA on LG TVs.
