I have bought my LG tv 3 years ago, and just now I have known how to use my remote. I had problems with the back button as it wasn't working, and how has the cursor appeared. I have tried so many video to show me how to fix these problems and more others and only this video has solved the whole problems I had and showed me a lot I didn't know about. Thanks you very much. Highly appreciated👍👍
A genuinely useful video for anyone who needs a clear informative guide on the functions offered by the LG remote. It always amazes me how poor the documentation is that manufacturers provide with their products.
Team AJ, you are the man!! I was on the official LG website explaining that my remote could not change channels and they replied to buy a new remote. It's a brand new 5 day old TV. Your solution in the comments on how to pair it to the set top box worked great. Here is the post in case anyone else has this problem. Team AJ 2 months ago Are you using cable tv?...if so go to settings / all settings / connection / device connector / set-top box / click on reset device....after that follow the steps to setup again
@Samsung Worldwide I'm not an expert so try this remedy that I referenced in my comment: Are you using cable tv?...if so go to settings / all settings / connection / device connector / set-top box / click on reset device....after that follow the steps to setup again See if this works.
@@CheckAG Bought a new tv yesterday with magic remote - this is a great video explaining the remote. However, what are the red/green/yellow/blue buttons?
This was a really helpful video. Thank you. Only problem is, I was really wondering what the red, green, yellow, blue buttons were for. You mention where they were, but not what they were for. I'm assuming they are some sort of programmable buttons, but can't find my instructions to figure that out. But thank you for the rest of the video,. It was helpful.
RED: EXIT (closes the menu on the TV) GREEN: INFO (displays information about the TV such as the resolution) YELLOW: BROADCAST (switches the TV broadcast type) BLUE: INPUT (switches the TV input)
Set up new TV today and struggling to find info on using the remote. Thank you for this video - all is now clear, well explained ... and I'm ready to go!
The bit of paper [4x6- 2 pages back-to-back] with mine is so small as to be unreadable. Complete lack of information on how to use the magic controller
I have been using the Magic Remote for a week or so now and I find it a bit small and the small input keys are rather close together. Until you know where the various buttons are located, I was fumbling around since they are not backlit like on my Logitech remote. I found myself tilting the surface of the remote towards the TV, hoping to catch enough light to see what the heck I was pushing. I do like the cursor, but it is annoying until you learn how to activate and hide it. It does have CEC, so I can use it for volume control with my A/V receiver. Someone asked about the colored buttons: They are activity buttons and will often be used as an option within, say, Netflix or Amazon to add/delete a show or movie to/from your Watchlist (for example).
Hey what are those coloured buttons at the end for? And a huge thank you to you for making this video. I legit had no idea that I could assign apps to the numbers. That's a very handy thing!
Great video, was surprised there was no LG explanation of its remote control amongst the paperwork! Quick access for apps is great. My 43” tv has the “old” remote & has an info button which I use often but it isn’t on the smart remote so I have to access info via the guide - any other way?
This is a very helpful video. Thank you. But I watched all the way to the end hoping to get an answer to my main question: How to use the red, green, yellow, and blue buttons. Why did you stop there?
I just got this remote today and it's a nice remote. The only thing missing for me is the button on the standard LG remote that let's you flick between the radio and TV channels. I've added the radio app to the quick access buttons, but would be nice for that button to have remained on the magic remote, was a nice feature
Could you please address the Red, Green, Yellow, and Blue buttons? I can't seem to record shows, IN PROGRESS, with my magic remote, which I really like, and wonder if the magic in doing so, is in those colored buttons perhaps?
Video was very helpful, I Kane the LG 43UN7300PUF TV. It's great, can't wait for my internet subscription coming soon. Thank you for your intuitive tutorial.
Thanks for the video. I’m choosing between 2 LG models one with this remote and one without and this helped me choose! P.s your voice reminds me a bit of Richard Ayoade!
Most comprehensive REMOTE REVIEW ever. Well done indeed. Now I wonder if anyone knows, 1) how much does a 2nd remote cost? 2) If I don't want insecure Google but DuckDuckGo as my search engine, can I preset it? And 3, more of a comment. I bet LG makes you sign-in so they can sell our info to advertisers. :) Such a pity. Overall--Just an excellent review. Even if I don't buy an LG TV with Magic Remote, I'd definitely know how to use it. THANKS SO MUCH!
Thanks a lot mate for a crisp video. I was struggling to certain channels to the buttons on remote without any luck. U covered that part right at the beginning. Thanks a ton. Wanted to know about these color buttons. What's their use and can we hard program them for channels. Pls do revert if possible. Thanks once again
Question?? I noticed you are able to controll your virgin media through you LG smart controller. I cant seem to get the LG smart controller to successfully connect with the set top box. Could you please educate us on how to link the virgin user interface with the LG remote. Virgin media claims its not possible but what I see here says it is. Nice video thanks.
Thank you for the tutorial, it easy to handle the remote after viewing your video. It was way better than reading all the instructions LOL. I have not been able to figure out how to replace the cable company's remote for the original one from LG. I only want to have one remote on hand.
great tutorial. I was looking for how to set the red, green, yellow and blue buttons at the bottom but you just mentioned them but gave no instructions. I know I saw how somewhere but can't find it now. Feedback would be appreciated.
It would be a game-changer if I could use one of the colored buttons as a shortcut to select Not Interested for videos on the RUclips app. Please implement this!
My 86 inch LG looks different with my home apps. Same remote though, just got it last night and can't figure out now to program the voice option so me and the wife can use it. It has alot of features my Samsung didn't, which it was only like a 2 years old.
Try deregistering your remote and start over. Or, try taking a battery out and place back in....that is supposed to pair your TV with your remote. To get cursor either shake remote, spin middle wheel, or I found out by clicking a directional button. If none of these work you may have a faulty remote. I hope I got all of that correct.

I could listen to your voice all day. This was a great tutorial. Thanks for taking the time to make it.
6:30 the timing was extraordinary. Thank you for the post, saves me reading the boring manual.

See if this works.
Thanks so much. This tv & the new magic remote have more going on than my wife & I realized.
This video is a great help!
I’m glad you realized you’re tv & magic remote have more going on than your wife.
It’s what this video was for. Good job Hotshot Tek
Not sure if you are aware but you can change channels with the roller wheel as well. Found that out by accident. Great video, thanks
Are you referring to DTH channels?
FINALLY! I have looked everywhere for this type of information! THANK YOU!
Glad it was helpful!

Your the only one I could find on youtube, to show the exact remote I have. Thank you for the tutorial. It was informative. :)
I'm glad it helped, I couldn't find one either when I got it so when I got used to it I thought I'd make one :-)
Team AJ so I can find the remote to watch (vanillahamham)
Missing remote is gone or glitch
You’re not your.
Ya really it's true
WOW ! I'm speechless ?? I own a Magic Remote and I did NOT !! know any of these... Thx dude !
Your help was amazing. I no longer had the letters on my controller so you helped me access the info🤩thank you immensely 🤩
I just love using this Remote! It's so convenient and probably the smartest tv remote!!
Was very useful ! Answered my question about this remote having a DVR button on this remote ! Thank you !
Nice information. Just purchased a new TV. The shop salesperson didn't know anything beyond basic operations.
Glad it was useful Himmat 👍

Bless you. I unplugged the tv and took out the batteries for 10 minutes and it worked. Stuck inside with this virus makes you my hero.
Thank you for your video. You’re voice is lovely and clear and enjoyable to listen too. Great video,
Thanks Debbie, that's very kind of you...
Wow! This guy has the voice of the Gieko lizard.
lol, love it, thanks ❤️
What I love about LGs TV is that it seems to be the only remote that acts as a cursor pointer compared to other brands
Yes, me too, it's a cool feature...
Just got the TV...this is so important!
Thank you for this tutorial! Such a nice alternative to throwing this blasted remote across the room!
Hey what are those coloured buttons at the end for?

You''re welcome Glenn, glad it was useful ❤️
So much better than the standard remote.
Really great video!
Thanks for your time in showing these tips. I learn't a few options that didn't realise existed and some not shown in manual! Stay safe and well.
Well would you know it, I’ve had this remote for years and didn’t know half what it can do.. cheers bud.
cool
Thanks! Easy instructions, wish I'd seen these sooner.
Thanks for a great instructional video on using this remote.
So very easy to understand
I just bought one the other day. Your video was helpful thank you.
Thank you for this video, as the TV does not come with a manual (aside from how to place the batteries) for the remote and this helped me a lot
Your video will change my way to use my remote
Great job, thanks for doing this
Thank you very much. I ordered it last week. It will arrive this year I hope lol. But the cursor and voice control is a great addition.
Thank you. Your video has been most helpful, the best information I've been able to find.
Just bought this TV, thank you for the video. That remote is cool.
Glad I could help
What model's your LG TV?
Lol I got a different remote it’s a magic remote but it got some different stuff on it
Did your magic remote come along with the tv or you bought the magic remote separately?
You are a lifesaver, and a very well-spoken host thank you kindly x

What's the 4 color buttons for? The ones below Netflix. Great tutorial. Very thorough.
Thankyou very much. A very good guide throught this. You explained it slowly, thoroughly and in terms that I was able to understand. Thankyou
Great walk-thru! We've purchased an LG 65UN8500 series tv, and one of these remotes comes with it. Looking forward to using it once it arrives.
Clear explanation sir ,It is useful 👌
Thanks VINITHA S N 🙌
@@CheckAG but I can't apply it on this magic remote what to do sir not working and how to record the video in LG Oled tv ,put one video sir
Great stuff man. Thank you sharing. Know your efforts and time are appreciated. Rock rock on!!!
I love all of LG tv 's remotes
They are good 👍
The scroll wheel broke down after a year of use, when I pressed it... they should probably put in an extra ''ok'' button that isn't so fragile
That's a good shout....❤️

Good video, that standard remote looks a lot like the Samsung remotes. Are LG and Samsung in some kind of business relationship?
Holding the Guide button for 5 seconds did the trick for me getting the cursor back after I lost power.
Thank you! This really helped us to understand our new remote.
Thanks. My remote was driving me nuts. Great Video Thanks Again.
You're welcome Gareth!
I wish you did a video like this with the standard remote
Thanks, very helpful. I only got the Magic Remote with mine - no standard one.
Seems dumb that the back button won’t send you back to previous channel.
Hello there
Great tutorial, I do have a question, how do I set up the TV if I don't use it to watch live programs, all I use it for is Netflix
Hi, in that case as long as the TV starts up, press the Home button, go to the app store and download Netflix 👍
Thank you for the tutorial. Is there a way to fast forward and rewind pre-recorded content?
Yes the tracker wheel click it up 1 time for 1x 2 For 2x and so forth. Do the opposite to rewind
Oh yeah, push the tracker wheel to stop fast forward and rewind
Very good of you to do this! thanks
You're welcome Jack, glad it was useful 👍
How do I register the voice recognition?
Great video, helped me a lot to use the remote properly.
What are red, green, yellow and blue buttons for?
superbly informative - thanks

LOL I sat thru this whole thing to find out what the red, green, blue, yellow buttons do. And you just skipped them
Those buttons are for when you are in the app ie. Amazon Prime - to save a shot to your Watchlist you press the green button.
Lol same

You can also get the cursor by rolling the wheel up or down instead of shaking or pressing the wheel down.
Would've been nice if you explained the functions of the color buttons.
Hi arnold, try this one, I cover them fully... ruclips.net/video/9jAtKzNNF9w/видео.html 👍
What are the colored buttons for? 🤦♀️🤷♀️
Dude that's literally all I want to know
@@kneldg well when your playing video games you can see the fps on your TV when you press the yellow button like 5 times lol or is it the green button
@@WillOnCode It's the green button. And it's 7 times. It's not just for games. It's for any HDMI input.
You can use the magic remote to also control your tv box. These boxes have coloured buttons for additional options.
those of hot keys, used in some apps, like yellow one is for search in youtube.
