I was just going to say. I have 2 LG TVs at home, not the official SD dock, but a couple of aftermarket ones, and they both work perfectly fine.
Also, LG TVs are notoriously slow to display after a change of HDMI (1 to 2 for example), so make sure you give it a few seconds (both my TVs can take up to 10 seconds to display).
What docks do you have? Might bite the bullet and just get one, in retrospect I should've just waited to see what would definitely work.
Nevertheless, I do appreciate the suggestions from everyone! Definitely didn't think to try it with another display, oops
I got a brand called JSAUX. In my case I pickles 2 of the 6-in-1 because of all the USB-A ports, but they have different sizes.
This is the one I purchased:

Just a follow up to say thanks, that dock worked right out of the box! Almost bizarre to see it flash up on the TV immediately, guess that's the nature of sheer hardware combinations out there. Cheers again
Glad that worked for you. Enjoy.
