I have a rooted LG WebOS TV. It's really nice. I can ssh into it. It's on a dedicated VLAN which has all LG domains and IP firewalled off. It can connect to Youtube, using a version of the Youtube app with integrated adblocker and sponsorblock. It's absolute superb.
- newscracker 7mo agoDo you have any recommended links for such a setup? I don’t connect my TV to the network and use it with an Apple TV. But I’m interested to know more on this.
- lpcvoid 7mo agoSure, first you check if your TV is rootable: https://cani.rootmy.tv/ https://cani.rootmy.tv/ If not, you can try and find one on Ebay or local classifieds that is. That's the hardest part. Then you setup a VLAN (I use OpenWRT, which has great support for this) and some firewall rules that forbid all traffic that isn't port 80 or 443. Then you create a dnsmasq blacklist for all the LG domains (good list is [1]). Then you install this: https://github.com/webosbrew/youtube-webos https://github.com/webosbrew/youtube-webos Enjoy Youtube on a large screen under your control without ads, and without annoying sponsors.
