Physical button mappings for LG webOS TVs
Button	What it does
`D-pad and OK`	Navigate the TV interface and confirm the selected item.
`Back`	Send Back to the TV without leaving its Couch screen.

`Hold Back`	Hold for about 0.6 seconds to return to Couch’s previous device list.

Pair and add the TV

Add an LG webOS connection in the web UI, enter its address and approve the pairing request on the TV. Then add its device to a room. Each TV keeps a separate connection and pairing.

Choose a source or app

Touch Input to choose a TV input, or Apps to choose from the TV’s app list. Open a tray by touch and use its close button or tap outside to dismiss it. Physical Back continues to control the TV.

Picture and sound controls

Picture can open the TV settings app when the TV exposes it; Couch does not promise direct picture-mode switching. Sound output offers TV speakers and HDMI ARC/eARC where supported by the television.

Playback limits

Play, pause, rewind and fast-forward depend on the active TV app. The source label is not a full now-playing feed.

Power over IR

In Rooms & devices, add IR commands directly to your TV and assign its power toggle. The keypad power button sends that code; the side power button sleeps or wakes Couch. Discrete on/off need separate codes. Existing connection-level power settings remain supported; select Network there if you prefer webOS power-off and Wake-on-LAN. Assigned per-device IR functions take precedence, and failed IR sends never fall back to network commands.

Customize an activity

Activity mappings can route volume to your receiver while navigation stays with the TV. Long Back remains reserved for returning to Couch.
