Reference: Using Media Share Features
When the appropriate Media Share options are enabled in the IP Environment / Media Share Menu (see
“Media Share Setup” on pages 74 to 77, 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 by 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.
• DIAL: Allows guests to play selected application media on the TV from a device with DIAL capability.
The device may be used to cast any application for which a TV-compatible application has been created/
selected for inclusion in the Pre-loaded Apps Menu (see “Pre-loaded Applications” on page 73).
• 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, DIAL, 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.
