Compatibility
PlxNative starts on webOS platform release 4.0 and newer. Static firmware checks show that webOS 3.9.2 and older lack symbols needed to start the app. Startup compatibility does not guarantee that every codec, audio setup or server transcode will play.
The table below records what people actually observed. An old report remains evidence for that exact app, TV and media combination; it is not a blanket guarantee for the current release.
| Television | webOS / app | What was confirmed | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
LG 49SM9000PLA (m16p3) |
platform 4.10.2; current v0.6.5 package | v0.6.5 installs and starts as a release build. Playback is routinely exercised on this development TV, but playback was not rerun during the v0.6.5 release check. | v0.6.5 installation evidence |
LG 65UP7560AUD (lm21a) |
6.5.2 build 43; v0.2.1 | Six direct-play sessions: H.264 and HEVC, 1080p and 4K, AAC and AC-3, episodes and clean end-of-file. Two old transcode cases failed; their server-profile bug was fixed in v0.3.0, without a reporter retest. | Issue #22 |
| LG OLED65CX6LA | 5.6.2-21; v0.6.2 | Library browsing and movie/show playback. Sign-in worked for the current run but was not retained after restart. | Reporter comment |
| LG OLED55C8 (2018) | exact platform/app version not stated | Anime playback. ASS subtitles were unstyled during direct play; choosing a different resolution forced a server transcode and preserved the subtitle styling. | Issue #73, result |
LG 43UM7400PLB (k5lp) |
platform 4.10.0 / TV firmware 05.40.20; v0.6.3 | Browsing worked. Playback worked after the reporter manually rebuilt PlxNative's native jail so /dev/rtkmem was available. This proves the repair operation, not the v0.6.5 in-app button. |
Issue #74, repair result |
LG Cloud Test Lab k24 / K24_DVB
|
webOS TV 24, platform release 10.3.1; debug v0.4.1 lab build | Startup, QR sign-in, two servers, managed profiles and playback. A 25 GB 4K HEVC Dolby Vision Profile 8 + E-AC-3 Atmos remux and a 1920×960 HEVC/E-AC-3 item direct-played; seek and background/foreground resume worked. A temporary H.264 envelope patch also made an HLS transcode load and play. | LG Test Lab case D1323260304; session report |
The LG Test Lab row is one rented television and firmware combination, not LG certification. The case identifier comes from the maintainer's LG record and is not present in the public repository. The test used a debug v0.4.1 build. The permanent generalized H.264 allocation change that later shipped was not rerun on that set. The session and pipeline logs establish playback and accepted Dolby Vision/Atmos declarations; they do not establish visible Dolby Vision rendering or audible Atmos output across other equipment.
These reports confirm that PlxNative opened and reached account or library screens. Their wording does not support a general playback claim.
| Television | webOS / app | Confirmed result and known problem | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| LG OLED55C41LA | webOS TV 24 / 9.2.2 / firmware 33.31.68; app version not stated | PIN authorization eventually reached the app; the account display and sign-in persistence failed. | Issue #75 report |
| LG OLED77G45LW | 11.20.0; exact app versions unclear | App worked for the current sign-in session and was described as fast; sign-in was not retained. The reporter's playback wording is too broad for a codec claim. | Model/version, usage report |
| LG OLED55G3LA | webOS TV 26 / 11.2.0-3701 / firmware 43.21.71; v0.6.2 | App reached a usable session, but sign-in did not survive reboot. No explicit playback result. | Reporter comment |
| LG 50NU800B6LC | 11.2.0; v0.6.2–v0.6.4 | Current-session sign-in worked; persistence failed through v0.6.4. No explicit playback result. | v0.6.2, v0.6.3, v0.6.4 |
| Model not reported | 10.3.1; v0.6.2–v0.6.3 | App was described as smooth and v0.6.3 showed the account during the current run; sign-in persistence still failed. No explicit playback result. | v0.6.2, v0.6.3 |
- LG 43LM6300PVB, webOS 4.10: issue #63 reported playback failure without the app version or logs. The reporter planned to retry v0.6.0 but did not post a result. It is neither confirmed compatible nor confirmed broken on the current release.
- Persistent sign-in remains under investigation in issue #76. A successful playback report can coexist with this problem because the sign-in remains usable until the app closes.
- Multiple TV libraries were visible but not switchable in issue #68; no TV model, webOS version or playback result was supplied.
