Video AVI not playing on LG webOS Smart TV

Question

Good evening, I acquired a new LG webOS smart TV. To my surprise, the TV doesn’t support AVI videos. I tried connecting an Amazon Fire Stick and Google Chromecast to install the VLC app, but the app doesn’t display the videos.  Do you have a solution?  Thank you very much.

Hello, no way to read the .avi even with the VLC player?  -- “Take your chances, seize your happiness and go towards your risk. By looking at you, they will get used to it.” René Char

The problem is that I can't get the VLC app on the LG WebOS television.

I think it's still the kind of smart TV that doesn't allow much except what is already provided by the manufacturer. And since it's not an ANDROID TV OS but rather a LG thing, the apps are probably also limited to the LG store, which often has not much to offer.  -- "We swallow in large gulps the lie that flatters us and we drink drop by drop a truth that is bitter to us."

Sorry for the T9  The TV I mentioned above for the TCL is at this price at Electro Dépôt.

There's no connection. You say that to find an Android TV it's a higher range and at a more expensive price, that's all.

Hello.  Look at this: https://webostv.developer.lge.com/discover/specifications/supported-media-formats/webos-50/  I don't know if this can solve your problem (I don’t have that TV, but I have an Android TV)  But maybe your AVI file has a video codec (or audio, or both) that is not supported.   If I were you, I would convert your AVI file to AVI (or MP4 or MKV) using a compatible video codec, and a compatible audio codec.  On the given link: - the video codec H.264 should work. - the audio codec mp3 should work.  These are the two most common codecs.   Just a side note: You say this: I was very surprised that the TV does not support AVI videos.  Look at this: https://www.lg.com/africa_fr/support/aide-produit/CT40007971-AF_1437298085149  I quote: icon I receive a message stating that this file is not supported, or the sound works normally but not the image. - Check that you can play the file without problems with a video player on a computer.  (Check that the file is not damaged)  - Check that the resolution is compatible.  - Check that the video/audio codec is supported.  - Check that the video format is compatible.   There you go.   If after all this, you still can't play your video, I'm not able to help you further. Sorry.  Hoping that it works. ++   -- As a wise man once told me: "In France, you can do anything....
