Player Version#: LG WebOS v2.1.3
I cannot find a Live TV menu option in the LG App. Is Live TV not supported? No option to run a cable to this TV - plan to use the HD HomeRun for TV instead.
Yes it’s supported:
Smart TV (LG 4K/UHD [webOS 2.0+], Samsung 2016+ UHD)
per: https://support.plex.tv/articles/226463767-frequently-asked-questions-dvr-live-tv/
However, until you actually have the tuner installed and configured in Plex, you won’t see “Live TV & DVR” in any app.
Live TV & DVR are configured in Plex, I use them all the time in PMP and Android. Is there some trick for making Live TV appear in the LG App? I could not find any settings menu in that app and the option does not seem to appear by default.
Can your post a picture of the home screen of Plex on your TV?
The TV says it has WebOS, so maybe it does not have WebOS 2.0+. But wouldn’t Plex version v2.1.3 indicate whether or not the feature should be available?

I don’t know. I don’t have an LG, which is why I’m asking for the photo of the home screen.
Maybe someone who is familiar with Plex on LG can help, I do not want to post a photo of my personal information just to show that options are missing, but here’s the version:
That version of app was pre UNO, you must have a HD TV and not UHD TV
UNO UI is only supported by UHD TV , 4K panel TV. The LG app prior to UNO did not support DVR, you best bet is a box like Roku or Shield etc for TV DVR support.

Right the TV is a 24" HD model, in my kitchen. I’ll get a cable run to it instead. I wanted to have a guide and pause live TV, it’s not worth using a front-end device just for those features.
