Chromecast TV installing from unknown sources

[Android Central Question]

Hi, I would like to install a APP from an 'unknown source'.
Under 'security and restrictions' and then under 'install unknown apps', the 'remote' will not let me 'enable'.
OK, So how do I install unknown apps?

Re: Unable install unknown apps

Looks like it's similar to Android where it has to be done for the app that's actually doing the app install -
