Where is the HDMI port on an LG TV?

Here are a few familiar places where you might find the HDMI port on your LG TV:

To do this, you’ll need to locate the screws that hold the TV to the wall mount. These screws are usually located at the top and bottom of the TV. Once you’ve found the screws, use a screwdriver to loosen them. Once the screws are loose, gently lift the TV off the wall mount.
With the TV removed from the wall mount, you should be able to see the ports on the back of the TV. Look for a port with the HDMI logo next to it. This is the HDMI port.

Once you’ve located the HDMI port on your LG TV, you’ll need to know how to use it.
Here’s how to use the HDMI port on your LG TV:
- Locate the HDMI cable you want to connect your device to the TV. The HDMI cable should have a small, rectangular connector at each end.
- Connect one end of the HDMI cable to the HDMI port on your device (such as a Blu-ray player, cable box, or gaming console). Make sure that the connector is fully inserted into the HDMI port.
- Connect the other end of the HDMI cable to the HDMI port on your LG TV. Make sure that the connector is fully inserted into the HDMI port.
- Turn on your device (such as a Blu-ray player, cable box, or gaming console).
- On your LG TV, use the remote control to navigate to the input source that corresponds to the HDMI port that you used. For example, if you used HDMI port 1 on the back of the TV, you’ll need to navigate to “HDMI 1” on the input source menu.

Tips for using the HDMI port on your LG TV
Here are a few tips to help you get the most out of the HDMI port on your LG TV:
- Make sure that the HDMI cable you’re using is in good condition. If the cable is damaged or has frayed ends, it may not work properly.
- If you’re having trouble getting a picture on the TV screen, try unplugging the HDMI cable from both the TV and the device and then plugging it back in. This can sometimes resolve connectivity issues.
- If you’re still having trouble getting a picture on the TV screen, try using a different HDMI port on the TV. Some TVs have multiple HDMI ports, so if one isn’t working, you may have better luck with another.
- If you’re using a device that requires a lot of bandwidth (such as a 4K Blu-ray player or gaming console), you may need to use a high-speed HDMI cable to ensure you get the best picture quality.
- If you’re using a device that supports HDMI-CEC (such as a Blu-ray player or gaming console), you can use the HDMI-CEC feature to control the TV and the device with a single remote. This can be convenient if you don’t want to use multiple remote controls.
- If you’re using a device that doesn’t have an HDMI port (such as a VCR or older DVD player), you may need to use an HDMI-to-composite adapter to connect the device to the TV.
