The more i think about it, it is obvious and I knew all along from the projector: it takes at minimum the #rpi500 to have enough oomph to play even 720p AVI files, and all the codecs required, basically a minimal Linux system.

The #Chromecast and #Roku must have at least a few codecs, and obviously have net access, it's just the usual mafiabusiness that locks me out?

Perhaps there exists a #jellyfin dongle? Or must I now learn about #arduino 🤣
