Virtual Joey Update??

[jeffreymabq]

There are only a couple of threads (that I could find anyway) on the Virtual Joey app for LG Tvs. I am getting ready to replace the bedroom TV, and would like a one-stop solution. I saw a thread once that was a couple pages long and had several different models available for Joey, but now I can only one thread that refers to older TVs. There's also the question of the 5800 series (the 2014 models that are NOT webOS) being compatible floating out there.

Does anyone have a list of what TVS are compatible. I really don't want to make the big purchase for nothing. Thanks!

jeffreymabq,

The LGTV’s that are compatible for the Virtual Joey are;

LN5700; 32/42/47/50/55/60

LA6200; 42/47/50/55/60

LA6900; 47/50/55

LA7400; 47/55/60

LA8600; 55/60

LA9650; 65/55

It will only be compatible using the Sony Play Station 3.

Thanks

I really want to buy the LB5800, but I can't get any reliable information about when/if it will be supported.

Doesn't look like anytime soon, as it is not on the list.

CubsWin,

I am doing more research for you to see if the model LB5800 will be supported for you. As soon as I get more information I will message you here.

Thanks

No PS4 or Xbox?

That would be great. Thanks!

Not Xbox. I'm not sure if it's out on ps4 yet, but if not, it will be in the near future.

Anything new on this? Seeing Matt G's response at the following link, does that mean the LB5800 does in fact have Virtual Joey support?

According to that list, no. It is not on that tv yet.

 

[CubsWin]

According to that list, no. It is not on that tv yet.

But if you follow my link, it was on Matt's list.

 

[ChadT41]

I did go to your link, and the LB5800 was not on that list.

 

[ChadT41]

Nevermind. It says net cast lb5800

If that's the newer webOS, it isn't supported yet.

It is a 2014 model, but it doesn't use WebOS. It is one of the "in between" models.

I just posted a question to the Dish support thread, since I can't find any manufacturer named Netcast, and these models are the same model numbers as LG sets.

https://support.dish.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=10556&p=59470 (reproduced below)

LG TVs have NetCast software on them (http://www.lg.com/us/netcast/index.jsp), particularly the models you listed as "NetCast":

LG LB5800 http://www.lg.com/us/tvs/lg-32LB5800-led-tv (comes in the same sizes listed, 32/39/42/47)
LG LB6100 http://www.lg.com/us/support-product/lg-47LB6100 (comes in same size listed, 47/50/55/60)
LG LB6190 http://www.lg.com/us/tvs/lg-65LB6190-led-tv

Ok. This is where I recommend PMing a mod. Either here or there. It's all the same.

Thanks Chad.
