Steps

Changing the Input on a LG WebOs screen temporarily

The process to temporarily override screen control on a LG WebOS screen is fairly easy.
  1. Using a standard LG remote
  2. Push BLUE button only, this will toggle between HDMI1 and the internal WebOS Media Player
    • The action is instant
    • Only the HDMI port marked on the screen as HDMI1 is supported

Note: pressing the Input/Source button will also switch the input for a few seconds, this however will be overridden by Screen control.
