I’m considering replacing my Nvidia Shield in the future and plan to build a small TV box as its replacement. I’m curious about what operating systems people typically use for these types of TV-specific devices, as well as which desktop environments are preferred. Is KDE or GNOME better optimized for use on TVs?
There’s Plasma Bigscreen if you’re into the whole KDE experience, specifically for TV usage.
I have been eyeing it for a while, does anybody know what media playback looks like with this?
I use CoreELEC on an Odroid N2+ and I’m wondering if all the media playback works like 4k60 HEVC, 4k60 VP9 and HDR playback.
