I have a dumb TV, and a spare computer. I want a nice easy way to interface with several services. (Jellyfin, disney+ etc)

I know of Kodi, but really dislike the interface. I know I could get a USB keyboard/mouse remote thing, but that isn't very elegent. Is there a simpler solution to this?

This is the correct answer.

Run an *arr stack somewhere on your network, install Jellyfin on the server and the Jellyfin app on the Shield and you're golden, no need for subscriptions.

@thanevim Sonarr/Radarr, to my understanding one is for "obtaining" shows/movies and the other is for users to request things for the other program to obtain.
