I don’t want to use Osmc or LibreELEC. What I’m going for is something like Android TV (tried using LineageOS but that didn’t work out for me).
I was interested in something like Plasma Bigscreen but most of the tutorial is about 4 years old and point to using an old image.
I installed the Debian package. After that, I logged in and set Automatic login, and switch the session to Plasma Bigscreen (x11). After applying and a reboot, it launched Plasma Bigscreen but some widgets (like the audio, KDE Connect) froze when clicking on them.
What do you recommend? I prefer to use a Raspberry Pi.
Also recommendations for a good remote to go with these?
I was so desperate I was thinking of reprogramming a wireless number pad cherry MX low profile or something.
It should have volume buttons, arrow keys, previous, next, pause, etc… Something a old person could understand.
Numbers and alphabet not required.
Bit old, but I used a Windows Media Center remote, still see new ones for cheap. Then use lirc with an IR receiver.
Pepper Jobs Media Remote. Changed my living room media center for good.
