'''Detailed Instructions'''


'''On Linux:'''


requirements: curl

to execute: ./linux-homebrew.sh

Follow instructions of menu

You can hardcode the IP if you edit the script


'''On Windoze:'''

to execute:

Step 1) edit device-ip.txt and enter in the file '''ONLY''' your media players IP address

Step 2) win-homebrew-upload.bat

Step 3) win-homebrew-brewme.bat

Step 4) win-homebrew-status.bat


If everything works you'll see nice message, if you see a lot of HTML the theme upload failed
for whatever reason - probably wrong IP address


SO, if you see a lot of HTML edit device-ip.txt and make sure the '''ONLY''' thing the
file contains is your WDTV's IP address.
