OK what the hell. This is the platform I was considering jumping into. Is nothing sacred anymore? That thing costs a fortune by TV stick standards.
Yep, everything is fucked. You can put kodi on a raspberry pi though I guess
You honestly got me thinking about the viability of throwing android TV on an RP4. I have one that I was going to use for a magic mirror, but I never got around to building it. I'm guessing I could find a remote and an IR module for the RP4, then just load android TV to it? Time to go down the rabbit hole...
I wouldn't put android TV. Kodi has plex and jellyfin addon and definitely won't have ads ever, or if it does it'll quickly be forked
In case anybody sees this, you can use your normal TV remote with a pi
