After over 25 years of building various HTPCs (with various assortments of timeshiftimg PVRs like Windows Media, XBMC, Kodi, SageTV, SnapStream, MythTV, TVheadend etc, and futzing with MPEG video-in cards on Windows, RSS feeds, etc), various other TV boxes like Popcorn Hour, and nasty Android TV boxes, I finally settled on the AppleTV 4K paired with Plex server running on Debian on an old HP EliteBook laptop.
Life is too short for messing around with these sort of sub-optimal workarounds in 2024, when there are now finally great affordable fuss-free tech out there.
- mrbigbob 2y agoim in the same boat as you. i have a roku currently talking to my jellyfin server running on my pi and a few months ago roku decided there needed to be more adds and it really has killed what little speed the roku had to begin with definitely eyeing an apple 4k tv and getting a lifetime subscription to the infuse player
