    Oh, it runs on a machine next to the tv. I thought he’d replaced the tv os.

    There are already a number of systems that can be used in that fashion. Although they’re more geared towards the media archive users.

      What is this number? I’d be interested in hearing more about other TV OS’s.

      I’m currently enjoying LibreELEC (first on x86 but just moved onto an old Chromebook) and tried plasma bigscreen (not much movement on that.) I’ve heard of OSMC but haven’t flashed it on anything to try it out.

        Sorry, systems was probably the wrong term. Bits of software is probably more accurate.

        As far as purely dedicated systems go,I’m not sure if there really is an alternative to LibreElec these days (I don’t follow things on that front very closely though).
