It would be great if the LG Webos app would be able to change the audio output option. This would make my flow start movie mode complete.

I don’t know if this is possible but one of the following options would work:

- Make a card so that you can change the audio output mode directly to the desired mode (Prefered option)

- Make a card which mimics the press settings button and a card for the up, down, left and right arrow buttons as well as the ok button. In this way you would be able to select the correct option by making a sequence of buttons which need to be pressed (the IR option from Homey is not working for this becaue it sends multiple commands to the TV and not all of them arrive at the TV)

@Emile (or somebody else who knows the code of this app) I hope you are able to have a quick look at it and check if it is possible.

Thanks a lot

You could try this question in this topic:

> Hi There is already a LG WebOS app available but it hasn’t been updated in a long time and it doesn’t work reliable. LG WebOS offers a lot more features like directly selecting the channel, showing you what is being played, the state of the current TV like “off” or “playing”. All of this can be done directly through WebOS without the IR remote feature. Would be great if we could get a better integration with the LG Tvs as it would allow us a lot of more automations. slight_smile Here is the…
