I have an old laptop that I want to use to replace the "smart" features on my living room TV. Can anybody recommend a distro and setup which could act like a dashboard / remote control setup?
I want the PC to auto launch to a menu where I can use something like a remote to keep it convenient for lower tech people in my home. Are there remotes controls for this purpose? Distros?
I appreciate any guidance!
Any distro should do it, you just need to set your media centre software to run at startup. I've done it with Plex and Kodi, and I think Jellyfin does it too :)
