Questions & Answers

Q: QuestionDo I need a LG account or sign in with LG to stream programs (i.e.,YouTube, Discovery+, etc.) from the web on this TV? Or can I go directly to the streaming provider with the TV myself and do so? If not, can I watch Comcast Cable without LG acct/sign up?

• A:Answer Hello there, Bucky. Thank you for your question about your LG OLED42C5PUA. We understand your inquiry regarding streaming and account sign-in. With your 42" Class C5 Series OLED evo AI 4K UHD Smart webOS TV, you can launch apps like YouTube, Discovery+, Netflix, and more directly from the webOS home screen—no LG Sign-In required. Just connect your TV to your home Wi-Fi network, press the HOME button on your Magic Remote, select your desired app, and sign in with your streaming provider credentials. If you don’t see a particular app, open the LG Content Store, search for it, and download it free of charge. For Comcast Cable via a cable connection (without a set-top box), simply connect the coaxial cable to the RF Antenna Input, switch your TV’s source to “Live TV,” and tune to your channels—no LG account needed. Troubleshooting tip: If an app won’t launch or you can’t tune channels, please check for a webOS update by going to Settings > General > About This TV > Check for Updates, then reboot your TV. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/lg-42-class-c5-series-oled-evo-ai-4k-uhd-smart-webos-tv-2025/6621833.p?skuId=6621833 We’d love to explore further solutions with you. Please send us a private message on Social Media @LGUSSupport and our team will be more than happy to assist you. We appreciate your patience and thank you for choosing LG! —Renzo
