Hey all,

I am looking into hacking TVs. Its well known they run linux most of the time, so we should be able to do some fun stuff with them.

I've found some guides, clips and other reference material online, but it isn't much. Do any of you guys have some reference material to help me on my learning journey?

Open it up, try to read the firmware, the flash storage etc. For sure it will run some weird old unfixed OS that has a permissive license.

Get a flash programmer or similar I guess.

If you find the hardware parts you could try to run real Linux on it. Maybe there are drivers missing though.
