or plex
How well does Plex run on a RasPi (or other SBC), and have you found a good remote control solution for it? I'm still using Plex on Google Chromcest TVs - the li'l remote just makes it so much easier.
For my dad’s roku TV I’ve got an app on my phone. It just automatically works if my phone’s on the same network.
No idea if plex could receive something similar but if it’s got some kind of API then one could be built.
Yeah, hoping to avoid apps. My wife and kids don't all have the same aptitude or capability for that.
For the pi there's always the option of getting a Bluetooth remote and writing your own script to send the commands when they're triggered - it's easier than you think because chatgpt can do all the awkward stuff for you
Not a bad idea, and scripting doesn't worry me. But, I've just remembered I have an old Astone media player remote and USB dongle somewhere. Might have to have a play.
Flirc skip one + flirc ir usb. Great remote combo for kodi.
Hmmm - looks promising. Looks like I can get one shipped to me in Australia via Amazon at a reasonable price too. Thanks for the tip!
You need their usb irc adapter too, but with both it should do the trick.
They have really nice raspi4 metal cases too, but they will block wifi if you use it. They work great when wired in though.
Yeah, very cool. The USB adapter is available on Amazon too.
