Unique Cloud
Service Synchronizes Content Across Platforms and Delivers Convenient Streaming
Functionality
Karachi, May 24, 2013: LG
Electronics (LG), which
launched its own LG Cloud service in the United States, South Korea and Russia
last year, will roll-out the TV-centric service in more than 40 countries including the Middle East, Europe, Asia, Central Asia
and Latin America regions by the end of
next month. LG Cloud enables
users to stream content directly to LG CINEMA 3D Smart TVs as well as provides a convenient location to
store entertainment content that automatically synchronizes between
PCs, smartphones and TVs.
“LG Cloud eliminates the time-consuming process of having to download or
manually transfer content between devices,” said Mr. D.Y. Kim, President of LG Electronics Gulf FZE, “Today’s consumers
are no longer loyal to only one type of screen. They move seamlessly from TVs
to PCs to smartphones and it’s up to us to help them get the content they want
whenever and wherever they want it. LG is one of very few companies that can offer
integration across so many display products.”
The LG Cloud app offers access to
videos, photos and music once it is uploaded to the user’s account.
Available on Google Play or the LG Smart World store, the
easy-to-install app is compatible with LG CINEMA 3D Smart TVs, PCs and Android
smartphones. After a quick setup process, users can begin streaming up to 5GB of content for free directly to
their CINEMA 3D Smart TV without having to first download files to a smart storage device. Multimedia
can be conveniently saved and streamed from LG Cloud, freeing up
gigabytes of space on overloaded smartphones and PCs. Content can be
uploaded to LG Cloud using the PC client, website or smart device. In the near
future, smart home appliances will also be able to connect and share via LG
Cloud for a truly integrated and convenient experience.
LG Cloud is also capable of transcoding and streaming multimedia content to mobile
devices by N-Screen. It even has a resume play function for seamless viewing or listening
across multiple products. Pause a video or song on a
smartphone and LG Cloud will continue playback from that same point on an LG Smart TV. LG Cloud also makes it possible to view
photo slideshows while simultaneously streaming music.
LG’s unique service allows members to easily store content in
their own personal LG Cloud account. Signing in to an account on an LG CINEMA
3D Smart TV is quick and easy thanks to the automatic Single Sign On (SSO)
protocol, which is able to recognize both the user’s LG Smart TV ID and LG
Cloud ID.
