I don’t know if this is the correct community to post this. I have a Smart TV from a Greek manufacturer named TurboX. Not Android TV, Smart TV. This means that it has Internet access, has some pre-installed apps, but I can’t install any other apps on it. The menus thankfully don’t have any ads. However, the Youtube app has. I highly doubt there is any way to remove those, but if you guys know or found any, can you let me know?

Thanks.

    I already have a Raspberry Pi 4 with 2GB of RAM lying around. Can I somehow connect it to the TV and use it via the TV remote? If so, what OS would I need to install to it, and what software would I use?

      People around here like to pretend Netflix, Hulu and the like don’t exist. A HTPC will be neither user-friendly or remotely good quality in this fashion. Most programs will be limited to 720p if you use linux. No you cannot control it with a remote, you’ll need a keyboard and mouse.
