Thanks, I wasn't aware of HDMI-CEC prior to your comment. It appears that my TV supports it, so it's time to build my own box. I believe my point about Plex still stands, not a lot of people can do what developers do.

Your point about Plex ignores the rich ecosystem of hardware and software that offers equivalent or better functionality to Plex.

  "Better" is relative. As I've found out from other comments, "better" requires rooting your TV, so it's actually worse from a usability perspective, in no case is rooting your TV and sideloading apps any better than simply installing an app from the TV vendor's app library.

    > As I've found out from other comments, "better" requires rooting your TV, This is not accurate. Most alternatives, in fact, do not require rooting your TV. Look, if you like Plex, you like Plex -- you don't have to justify your preference by confidently posting incorrect information about everything else.
