Is it possible to set the initial screen that appears when the TV is turned on to an external input or the home menu?
- LG Electronics smart TVs released in 2023 and 2024 offer the option to set the initial screen to either [Home screen] or [Recent external input].
- TVs released before 2023 can also set the home menu as the initial screen by selecting [Auto-start home menu].
- This functionality is exclusive to remote control activation of the TV upon power-on; using the TV's power button may display a different external input screen.
- This feature may not be applied if [TV Quick Turn On] or [Q- Start] is disabled, so please ensure Quick Start is enabled.
- Note that this feature may not be applicable to certain models, as some models have their own predefined initial screen. Please refer to the user manual for more details.
