Can anybody lead me down the right path on this…?
I run a jellyfin server and I’d like to utilize a raspberry pi as the equivalent of a roku box / fire stick but for my jellyfin server.
I’m setting this up for a friend as a gift. He isn’t very tech savvy so I wanted to make it user-friendly. I’m looking into buying a usb remote control as well.
I love the jellyin UI so it would be cool to stick with that.
What are my options? It would be ideal if the pi boots up right into the browser/player app and can be accessed/controlled via the remote like roku or similar.
EDIT: I wanted to specify that I already have a media server. This pi would serve as a client for viewing only. It will stream from the main server.
Worth testing out if you have one lying around… they are scarce these days. I’m not completely sure it would be a good experience performance wise. I would like to know myself.
