Using Media Share Features - LG 32LY760H Setup Manual

Reference: Using Media Share Features
When the appropriate Media Share options are enabled in the IP Environment / Media Share Menu (see
"Accessing the IP Environment Menu" and "Media Share Setup" on pages 51 and 57, as necessary), guests
have the ability to use one or more of the following Media Share features:
• Smart Share: Allows guests to use the TV to access and view media files (photos, videos, music, etc.)
shared either by wired DLNA Certified devices (the devices must be connected to the same LAN as the
TV) or by wireless LG devices using LG's Smart Share application with Wi-Fi Direct.
• Screen Share: Allows guests to select a Miracast or WiDi capable device, whose screen can be displayed
on the TV.
• Bluetooth Sound Sync: Allows guests to listen to audio from a Bluetooth-enabled mobile device through
the TV's speakers.
• SoftAP: Allows guests to use the TV as a 2.4 GHz wireless access point for up to five devices.
This section provides an overview of the Smart Share, Screen Share, Bluetooth Sound Sync, and SoftAP
functionality.
Note: Typically, only one Media Share feature may be used at a time. If one feature is
currently in use, you may have to exit or turn it OFF in order to use/turn ON another. In some
cases, you will be prompted to confirm your action. Follow the display prompts as necessary.
Smart Share
The following steps describe how to access and use the Smart Share feature, either with wired DLNA
Certified devices on the same LAN as the TV or using wireless LG devices/Wi-Fi Direct. If you intend
to connect to an LG device using Wi-Fi Direct, remember that you must also turn ON Wi-Fi Direct and
launch the Smart Share application on the LG device.
1. Turn ON the TV, and press MENU SETTINGS on the Installer Remote to display the TV menus (either
the setup menus or the Function Menu depending on whether the TV is or is not in Pass-through Mode).
2. Use the Up/Down arrows to select/highlight the General menu icon, and then press OK.
3. In the General Menu (see example on following page), use the Up/Down arrows to select Wi-Fi Direct,
and then press OK.
Note: If Wi-Fi Direct is currently grayed out, you may need to turn OFF another Media Share feature
in order to use Wi-Fi Direct. For example, make sure that SoftAP is turned OFF. See also note above
regarding simultaneous use of Media Share features.
4. When you initially access the Wi-Fi Direct screen, the OFF/ON toggle button at the top right of the
screen is selected/highlighted by default. If Wi-Fi Direct is currently OFF, press OK on the Installer
Remote to turn Wi-Fi Direct ON. This will prompt the TV to search for all available Wi-Fi Direct enabled
wireless devices, including mobile devices, laptops, etc. Devices found will be listed in the lower half of
the screen.
Note: If the search does not initially locate any devices, you can select REFRESH LIST and press OK
to rescan.
5. Use the Up/Down arrow keys to select/highlight the device with which you wish to share, and then
press OK.
The share request will be sent to the targeted device. The user of that device may choose to allow or not
allow the share connection. Similarly, once Wi-Fi Direct is turned ON, other devices may request share
connections with this TV (pop-up share requests typically appear in the bottom right of the TV screen).
