My nearest way is using my steam controller but isn’t comfy to navigate Netflix or other streaming websites.

    I’ve been using mine for 10+ years, maybe changing batteries once.

    I currently use it with a NUC loaded with linux mint, and have the UI HD scaled (it’s an out-of-the box option).

    The only native functionality of the actual smart tv that I use, is the power button.

      Question: How do you watch content encoded in HDR-10 or Dolby Vision on a Linux box? I’m pretty sure *Nix supports neither. Do you simply not watch that kind of content?

        You can decode and view HDR files in SDR just fine but the Linux ecosystem just does not support HDR yet. It’s being worked on though and Valve’s Gamescope compositor has started getting HDR working in games.

          What I meant about “simply not watch that content” was actually “simply not watch that content in HDR”.

          Thanks for the reply. I hope you’re right and that support comes soon. I’d love to ditch windows ASAP
