    I have an LG smart TV and I want to use the UK apps on it. To get these I set the TV to my country "UK" and enable premium content.
    When the TV restarts NoW TV, Demand 5 etc are in the apps section but after about 20 seconds the TV switches back to IRL.
    I am using overplay on my Vodafone router for BBC iplayer and ITV and Netflix.
    Does anyone know if its possible to set the TV to stay on UK settings.

    Hi Brian,

    Strange that the TV reverted back automatically.

    Assuming you've changed the DNS value in the TV menu to the one Overplay supplied?

    I have an LG TV and use Now TV no problem. I just switched the country. What TV model is it and I can check my settings.

    I have overplay set on my router. The TV won't let me change the DNS settings. We are watching Netflix USA but we can also get iplayer on various devices so the router DNS is working correctly.

    Have an LG smart TV and from what I remember I had to set the country setting in two separate places for to to work (LG smart store and also in basic TV settings). I also put in an NI postcode.
    Not sure if that helps you much, I'll check exact details when I get home.
