Just use a mini PC and pirate everything. The amazon fire interface sucks anyways. Every streaming service is in a different app and you have to remember which app to use for each show.
Got any suggested tutorials?
After a long time trying to wrap my head around, I finally have jellyfin, are Services, with transmission running behind a vpn, all running seamlessly with a single docker compose file. It’s beautiful. I’m only sad I didn’t do it sooner. Fuck these companies.
If you want a new console + a PC at your TV, I think the new Steam Machine could be nice for that.
Running SteamOS (Linux) this should be good, or am I missing something?
NVIDIA shield is still king.
+1 Coming up on my ten year anniversary with mine.
I suggest Bazzite if you want a better expirience, it’s more mantained than the public steamOS release and has a little more features
Oh so you already own a Steam Machine and installed it? What’s the performance like? Did you install Kodi?
If you’re running a steam machine or a steam deck, SteamOS is the way to go. It’s significantly smoother, and running Bazzites Game Interface version is buggy and slow as hell in comparison to native steamos
HDMI-CEC out of the box? Does it not lose focus when you turn off/on the TV so keyboard/remote navigation becomes impossible?
I wonder where they would draw the line? Smarttube? It’s not piracy but circumvents ads. Mayby Jellyfin or Plex? They are not piracy specificly but it’s how I consume?
You don’t own your TV.
So they’re blocking Youtube? A few copyrighted things knocking around on there last I checked.
The Star Wars Holiday Special will remain there because no one wants to admit they own it
Bea Arthur’s finest role 😆
I remember buying a bootleg copy of that and the Corman Fantastic Four movie on VHS at some record show years back. Owning those was a matter of pride.
Most interesting part of this article is the mention of VegaOS, which I hadn’t heard of. Not because I approve of anything Amazon does, ever, but depending on how much of a Linux it actually is, the jailbreaking / homebrew potential is intriguing.
