I’m sure your experience using a remote to watch various streaming services and cable tv and pirated shows is all just totally simple and just works and the average person wouldn’t have an issue using it though, right? This is the crux of the issue.
Everyone has access to a wireless keyboard, most devices give you a code to input to pair, no passwords. It’s easier than you think putting kodi on a firestick. I haven’t done it in a few years, but my Plex works great and it’s cathartic building my own library. Stremio is my backup and isnt any harder than navigating netflix.
Chill Winston.
New firesticks run a proprietary OS, no longer Android :(
Actually yes. Requested through Seerr, added automatically to Jellyfin, streamed to the Kodi box. Simpler interface than Netflix. Setting it up is though not simple, but if a toddler has learned to use the TV remote they’d be able to use it. And there’s about 30TB of content already so Seerr is rarely needed.
For context I’m spreads doing this I run Plex and jellyfin in tandem, but many times I’d rather not host the content if it’s already on my streaming services. Good luck having a good experience with those on these types of setups. That’s my gripe.
My kodi box, running librelec not debian, works with a remote and is just as easy to use as a Roku or whatever. Kids, old people, and all ages in between have used it with zero coaching.
I’ve done it, what am I missing? What remote are you using? How are you watching Netflix and Disney+ with that setup?
I’ll pm you some questions. Answer them and I can point you in the right direction.
