Find the right install guide for your TV
Not sure which install guide to follow? Answer the three questions below and you'll land on the right one for the screen you have.
1. Is impressPlayer already on the screen?
If you or your installer set the screen up, or it's already showing a 6-digit code, the software is on it — you don't need to install anything. Go straight to Connect a new screen with its activation code.
2. No screen yet?
You don't need any hardware to start — open a test player in your browser and use that as your screen.
3. Installing on a new screen — what is it?
Match your screen, then open its guide:
LG TV — LG screens run webOS → Install impressPlayer on an LG Smart TV (webOS)
Samsung TV, newer (≈2015 and later) — these run Tizen → Install impressPlayer on a Samsung TV (Tizen)
Samsung TV, older (before ≈2015) — these run Orsay → Install impressPlayer on an older Samsung TV (Orsay)
Philips professional display (Android TV) → Install impressPlayer on a Philips Android TV
Hikvision display (Android TV) → Install impressPlayer on a Hikvision Android TV
iiyama display (Android TV) → Install impressPlayer on an iiyama Android TV
Android tablet, media box, or any other Android screen → Install impressPlayer on an Android device
Still not sure what your TV runs?
LG = webOS. Samsung = Tizen (or Orsay on older sets).
If the screen has the Google Play Store and a row of apps along the bottom, it's Android TV — use the matching brand guide above, or the Android device guide for a generic box.
When in doubt, match the brand first; if it isn't LG or Samsung and it's Android-based, the Android device guide works.
For how the install flow works on every screen (the same three moves) and all the guides in one place, see impressPlayer install guides.
Next step: once the screen shows its code, Connect a new screen with its activation code.
