I have been using kodi but it just so limited and clunky. Android TV is better but that is a major challenge since Android TV is very tied to Google with not much existing outside of Google.

What I am looking for is a device that can work with mostly Jellyfin. I don’t use any streaming services. It would need to work flawlessly with a remote and I am looking for something that maintains itself mostly.

    Yeah, fair enough. Did you try kodi with a different hardware? Might be a bit easier on the clunkiness. But besides AndroidTV, which I hate because it doesn’t do what I want, I have no alternative.

    I haven’t dabbed in it, what does the select keycode being higher than 255 do?

      Select

      Kodi just have a awful menu system everything is buried under menus.

      As far as Android TV goes it is pretty sure friendly and works out of the box

        Yeah, it does need a lot of getting used to, especially if you want to change some settings.

        With AndroidTV I have the same problem as with Windows: More and more of the “features” seem to be against my interests. That might be a view tainted by the SmartTVs, but it’s the only experience I have with it.
