Sorry if this the wrong place, I couldn’t find an HTPC, home theater, techsupport, or equivalent instance to ask.
The gist is I want to add a TV to my master bedroom for my wife to just browse the web, and for my kids to have something to watch in the mornings while my wife gets out of bed. I have a main pc in my theater room for gaming, and an HTPC on projector for movies and stuff. I don’t want to get a roku or any mainstream smart device, but I’m OK with getting something like a raspberry pi (never done this) to have an air mouse hooked up to the TV so my wife can browse the web, open YouTube, Netflix, steam books, Spotify, as well as access my pc library of content for viewing. Not for gaming. Everything I’m finding online is people connecting their pc to their TV and it’s always for gaming. I don’t need large processing, just enough to watch things, while connecting to my home computers.
Thank you.
Thanks for the information and pointing me in a direction I can work with.
I found the pi setup to be too low powered, a lot of people opt for nvidia shield instead, but it has its own problems.
Im looking at making a micro computer using MicroITX form factor in a super slim case with a GPU (nothing insane, but something I wont need to replace for a long time).
After that, Ill mount the case behind the tv and hookup a wireless keyboard+mouse controller.
