Hello,
After an update on my LG television of the Facebook Watch app, the screen remains black and no video is being played. There were no issues before.
Update completed on 03/12/2021.
Has anyone else experienced the same problem?
Thank you for your help.

Configuration: iPhone / Safari 14.0.3

    Hello,
    Here’s what I usually reply on this subject:
    Regarding applications, manufacturers and distributors do whatever they want. Personally, I have an LG TV, and at first, I had an Orange app that provided access to lots of radio stations, but it was suddenly removed during an update without warning. For replay, I had Pluzz (public service replay) and Arte +7, which have also disappeared. As for MyTF1, I only have paid VOD available, and on the M6 replay site, I’m asked to download a “player” but “download impossible.” It’s all about agreements with the app owners and the TV brand—it's a money issue, so these TVs aren't so smart, are they?...;-(
    And Arte came back a little while ago... go figure...
    And:
    "Smart TVs connected to the internet generally also allow access to applications (sometimes also called "Widgets"). Currently, the applications offered vary depending on the brand and TV, and within the same brand, some applications may only be accessible on certain models."
