HDMI mini computer - Lemmy.World

Hello, I’d like a mini pc that I can just connect to the HDMI port, where I could watch 4K movies without the need to plug anything else on it except keyboard, mouse, or remote control. [https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/1826563a-4a8f-4e07-8aef-f77b1de9d4ed.png] Any recommendation for a mini pc like this or any disadvantage of doing it this way ? Thanks !!!

I highly suggest a RPi5 running LibreElec or Recalbox if you also want to play retro games alongside streaming shows. Both operating systems would use Kodi, a media player for self-hosting or streaming mostly pirated content. They both support CEC and Arc.

Edit: Didn’t see that this was in the Kodi community already so you clearly know what it is
