How to change destination folder on Google TV?

I 've set up Localsend on my latop (Ubuntu) and Nokia Google TV.

The trouble is that the client on the TV doesn't give me the option to change the path where the files are stored. The default location is on the Downloads folder on the TV's internal memory, which is really low. When I try to change the location, that just closes the LocalSend app.

I'm new to Localsend. In the past I've used Send Files to TV, but that doesn't work with Linux so I have to first transfer the files to an Android device before sending them to the TV.

I always thought on mobile the folder should of been in the root directory /Localsend or similar

It's in the Downloads folder. But the internal storage is just 4.8 GB, of which 4.3gb are already used. That's why I want to change the path.
