Hey LG webOS users! We've got some exciting updates landing this week that are all about making your Signagelive experience even better. Think smoother video and a clever new way for our support team to lend a hand. Let's dive into what version 1.9.96 brings to the table.

Better Video, Happier Screens!

First up, we've been tinkering under the hood to bring you improved video playback on your LG webOS devices. Expect a smoother, more reliable viewing experience for your audience.

Introducing Remote Logging: Our Support Team Just Got Super Powers!

Now, this is pretty cool. We've rolled out a new "remote logging" feature that's going to make troubleshooting a breeze. If you ever run into a snag with your LG devices, and you've got a ticket open with our support crew, we can now enable logging remotely. This means we can take a peek at what's happening on your players without needing to be on-site. Pretty neat, huh? It's something we'll only enable when you're facing an issue, but when you do, it'll help us get you back up and running much faster.

Good news: this v1.9.96 update should have already rolled out automatically as long as your devices are connected to the internet.

Quick Tip: Your LG Remote Has Secrets!

Here's a fun little tidbit: grab your LG remote and while Signagelive is running, give that yellow button a press. You'll unlock a treasure trove of info about your LG player, including the client version, your Signagelive serial number, the firmware, and a bunch more handy details. Go on, try it!

Welcome to the Family: Official Support for LG WP600 Players!

We know a lot of you have been waiting for this, and we're thrilled to announce official support for the LG WP600 external media players! These little powerhouses expand your options, allowing you to connect to any screen you like, not just LG ones. We've been putting the WP600 through its paces, and we're seriously impressed.

While LG is famous for their system-on-chip displays, these external players are a fantastic addition to the WebOS ecosystem. They also pack a punch with Ultra HD 4K video playback, seamless video and image transitions, and installing Signagelive on them is a piece of cake.
