Very interesting piece of work, however unfortunely not targeting my LG TV from 2013. By any change, is anybody aware of a project to install alternative firmware on such an ancient box? -- Cheers, Jürgen

I'm not sure which WebOS (if at all) version you are running, but https://www.google.com/search?q=getmein+lg+tv might work for you.

It could also be running Netcast instead of WebOS? In which case there are other ways to get in, but you'll be asking yourself "why did I do this" pretty quickly.

Join the OpenLGTV Discord and you'll have a wealth of information.

Thx for the information! I think my TV predates WebOS. Well, I'm using Kodi on a Raspberry Pi mostly anyway, but would be nice to use the TV itself aswell...

Is this information archived in a more reasonable location than Discord?
