After having two identical LG TVs for a while, I started to use the function for recording to HDD.
Turns out, a recording will only play back on the actual TV it was recorded on. I therefore cannot use the other TV to play a recording if I need to for various reasons. I got two identical TVs for consistency, still this kind of nonsense happens. It also of course means that in future, if a new TV is purchased, recordings will not work on that either. LG explained that this is for copyright reasons. Even if this is correct it should be down to me to decide on that. Other devices, admittedly self contained recording devices such as DVRs can be played back on different TVs. DVD recorders, of course would when I used them create a recording on a disc which will play in another player. Unbelievable. Thanks LG, up yours.
My current Samsung TV plays my WD Passport Hard Drive with no issues at all. It's formatted at ntfs.
I recently went looking at a new TV and was tempted by an LG C7 OLED as I've been told they're a lot better than the qled. The first store I went in my Hard Drive worked, the salesman then showed me the same model but a bigger TV. He could not get the hard drive to show up no matter which usb input he tried. I then went to another store and had the same problem, however it then just randomly appeared after a while, no one knew why. He kept removing it and putting it back in. I then went to another store as I was not sure about It, surprise surprise it didn't work. Does anyone know why or have had similar issues with an LG? I may stick with a Samsung if it's a bit hit and miss each time i use it. I could test a fat32 usb pen but I won't be using that format as I need large files on it.

Floris mod pack installer. & i have already tried tried the solution which was proposed for another topic in this forum on which it was to Uninstall the driver using Device Manager and unplug the HDD and attach again and let the computer detect and install it again, my computer does detect it but fails to install the drivers.
My Computer has a 2GB of RAM & 2.40GHZ (32bit) with an Intel Core 2 Duo Processor and had come with Windows Vista Home Premium 32bit installed, & i upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate 32 Bit which is completely updated to all the Updates that Microsoft had offered (using the built in Windows Update in Control Panel)
