Help Please - losing my mind. Can't find "tv input" in settings menu

New to all of this.  I have an LG smart tv, no cable or satellite connection, just Roku.  I'm attempting to attach a DVD/VCR player through Roku, and I keep being guided to go to settings on my remote, and then select TV Inputs.  NOWHERE in my settings menu is anything that says "tv inputs."  I've not spent 3 hours of my life that I'll never get back.  Can anyone please help me?  Thank you!!!

    Sounds like you have a Roku device connected to your LG TV via a HDMI cable.

    The above setup differs from a RokuTV. (a RokuTV is a TV that has an integrated Roku operating system.)

    A RokuTV has inputs.  A Roku device does not have inputs.

    As such, there are no settings to control inputs/peripherals (for cable boxes, antennas, dvrs, vcrs, etc.)

    To setup any of these peripherals on your LG TV, you will need to use the LG Remote and the LG Settings to control these inputs, not the Roku remote.
