I never want to get a smart TV, but I found this exact TV (Toshiba FireTV) on the side of the road and decided it would be a fun project to try enhancing its privacy as much as I can. It did not come with the remote or any other accessories besides the TV, so if there is any way to pair an iPhone/Pixel as a remote that would also be good. Is there any way to replace the software with something open source, and anything else I can try?
Thank you all!
So you’re using Kodi as the OS on the TV itself? Not the Kodi App or Kodi backend?
I’m still struggling to understand how that would work, and still have Jellyfin in the mix - could you please explain exactly what you mean?
There are is that a properly open source and free that support Kodi without much configuration.
Nothing like that exists for jellyfin apps. You have to use one of the prosperity operating systems to use the jellyfin app with a tv first os.
