Software LG
forgot to ship.
Open-source apps and POSIX shell tools for rooted LG webOS TVs. Tested under busybox, safe to install, clean to remove.
Three tools. One rooted TV.
An IPTV player that feels like cable, a faster wired connection, and a real Linux toolbox. Each one checks your TV first and undoes itself cleanly.
TiviBro
The IPTV player LG TVs never got. Free, open-source and TiviMate-style for webOS 4+: guide-first, catch-up, movies and shows, sports and PPV read from channel names, a set-up tour, channel logos, a web editor for your phone or computer, and an Android remote.
LG-USB-2-ETH0
LG TVs ship with a 100 Mbit/s port. This makes a USB Ethernet adapter the TV's eth0, so settings and streaming apps use the faster wired link. Two to three times the speed, at every boot.
Entware Installer
One-line Entware for rooted webOS. Picks the right 64-bit or 32-bit build, test-runs it, survives reboots and uninstalls cleanly. Comes with ent, bash, nano and webOS helpers.

Built like it's your TV.
Because it is. Every project follows the same rules.
Look before you touch
Each tool reads your model, webOS version, kernel and free space first, and says what it will do before it does it.
Undo is a command
One file in the Homebrew Channel's boot folder, a clean uninstall, and a reboot that always starts clean.
Tested without a TV
Fake /sys, fake ip, fake opkg. CI runs every suite under busybox, dash and bash.
No accounts, no tracking
Open source and MIT licensed. Bring your own playlist. Nothing phones home except an opt-out anonymous install count in TiviBro.
Made for real people
Plain-language READMEs, doctor and report commands, and bug reports you can file from your couch.
You need a rooted TV.
Everything here runs on LG TVs with the webOS Homebrew Channel. Check whether your firmware can be rooted at cani.rootmy.tv, then turn on SSH in the Homebrew Channel's settings. TiviBro also installs in Developer Mode, no root needed.
Root the TV
Follow webosbrew.org/rooting for your firmware.
SSH in as root
