Seerr TV

A native webOS app for LG Smart TVs that wraps Jellyseerr / Overseerr with key improvements over using the browser directly.

---

Features

• First-launch setup wizard to configure your Seerr server URL
• Session persistence — stays logged in between launches just like the LG browser
• Intercepts Watch Trailer links and plays them fullscreen in an inline YouTube player instead of redirecting to the broken TV YouTube app
• Back button closes the trailer and returns to the movie/series page
• Magic remote scroll wheel support for page scrolling
• D-pad left/right navigation for scrolling movie rows — hover over a row with the magic remote then use the D-pad to scroll
• No ads, no tracking, no bloat

---

Requirements

• LG Smart TV running webOS 4.x or higher
• Rooted TV with Homebrew Channel installed, or Developer Mode enabled
• A running Jellyseerr or Overseerr instance accessible from your TV's network
• Magic remote required for navigation (pointer-based UI)

Reverse proxy note

If your Seerr instance is behind a reverse proxy (e.g. Nginx Proxy Manager), add the following to your proxy host's advanced config to allow session cookies to work inside the app:

proxy_cookie_flags connect.sid samesite=none;
