### Installing Castmill Player

In order to install Castmill Player on an LG WebOS display, you have to configure where the app should be downloaded from in the server setting menu. The steps for doing this are slightly different, depending on which version of WebOS your device is running. Follow the instructions below, matching your device's version.

To simplify the installation process, we provide a configuration file with all the server settings. Copy this file to an empty USB flash drive, plug it into one of the free USB ports of you LG display and reboot.

You can then install Castmill Player as described below but with all the settings already made for you.&#x20;
