Unable to connect system to LG TV

I am unable to connect my Xbox One to my sister's LG TV via HDMI, no matter which port I put it in. My sister uses AV cords for her system, but once you go HDMI, it's hard to want to go back. I believe it's a smart TV, so I might just be doing something
wrong.

Xbox disconnects TV but cannot connect it

Hi,

I have a LG M197WDP TV. I set up the system with several Remote codes provided by

I was able to get volume, mute and power off working. But Power On never works ... and my TV does not connect when Xbox starts

Any suggestions on solving this ?

 

Xbox wont display via HDMI/AV cable

No changes or updates to my system sadly. Only change was from one tv to the other tv. This first started happening a week ago. I had it linked upto the LG tv, then the screen just went blank, and hasnt worked since on the LG tv. But as stated it works
fine on the Samsung tv.

Also it will not work via the AV/Scart cable on the LG, only via the composite cable. Luckily my tv supports all of the above methods for connection.

 

LG's HDMI support is notoriously unstable, not sure if it is the way they handshake or whether their software is poor but it is a long standing complaint you can find in many places on the internet.

Xbox 360 had issues with LG TV's as well (do a web search for xbox one lg tv hdmi and you'll get pages of results including PlayStation issues connecting to LG TV's so not limited to Microsoft).

Things to try:

On your TV that it works with, set your Xbox One to a lower resolution i.e. 720p then plug it in to the LG TV and see if it works.

Check for a TV firmware update

Reset TV to factory default settings

Try other HDMI cables

Try a HDMI to AV converter for your sister's TV and use AV cables with your Xbox One when using that TV.

 

NEVER had a problem with my 360 or xbone with my HDMI. How old is your TV and what HDMI cable are you using

 

It is actually quite a common problem with LG's and their HDMI input (There was actually antoher thread only today about a similar issue with LG's).

I would reccomend trying to plug something else into the HDMI, and see what the result is. If the TV is still not recognising the HDMI input, then it may be an issue with the TV I'm sorry to say

 

If its like my lg, try have the TV on and with the input you want, selected. THEN turn the Xbox on.

 

have the same issue with my 50pg20d lg tv ,when I turn on the xbox one it says connecting on the tv then after a few seconds says no signal ,

I have tried a dvd player in the same ports and they work fine only the xbox one wont work any help would be great
