Hope I'm posting in the correct area:) I did a software update on my LG TV and afterwards the TV would turn itself off and on, 4 or 5 times every now and then when changing channels, I tried all sorts of things :scratch: in settings to no avail. A few Google hits and the advice was to unplug the TV for a minute, bingo!! So why does cutting the power supply often fix equipment issues?
Probably a glitch in the ram from the update.
Unplugging for a short while will drain the charge on it and reset to normal.
It's a good fix for tvs
Modern TV's are basically computers which are built for a specialised purpose, watching TV programs received from Terrestrial radio transmission, satellites and digital transmissions. When you powered yours off and left it for a minute or so you performed a full reboot of the system, and this would have likely re-initialised all the software, including the last update(patch) and your setting presets. I suspect that the software update did not completely install or it glitched, hence the problems you had. Hopefully all will be good from now onQuote:
