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.
Sounds like you don’t want to do this, but I am loving my Nvidia Shield TV Pro.
I’ve installed Projectivity Launcher on it and all the apps I want. It’s such a smooth, clean experience.
Whether it’s Netflix, Tivimate, Kodi or Plex, it all runs super smoothly, no stutters, no ads. Highly recommend.
The backlit, voice capable remote is really nice too.
I’ve never liked voice activation but my wife might like that. Idk why Nvidia shield keeps coming up, it’s like the only mainstream streaming device that keeps popping up for people who like to stay away from streaming platforms.
