    The upload page is a website rather than part of the app, so a phone, tablet or computer is required for this step.

    Back in HotPlayer, choose Refresh. The saved playlist is picked up straight away.

Installing HotPlayer on LG TV: what is different

  • LG TVs run webOS. Press Home on the Magic Remote to open the LG Content Store, then search for HotPlayer.

  • webOS has no sideloading on retail sets, so the LG Content Store is the only route. If HotPlayer is missing there, use another app from the device page.

  • Installed apps land at the end of the Home launcher bar. Drag HotPlayer to the front so it is one click away on match nights.
