I’m looking for a sleek ui that’ll support firefox, jellyfin, and steam. I would prefer not to use kodi.

I found this project I might try https://github.com/dudewheresmycode/TenFootGnome

Any suggestions?

I used Kodi, then LibreELEC then now “just” VLC (booting to it via https://f-droid.org/en/packages/news.androidtv.launchonboot/ rather than home screen) as my content is on my home server relying on DLNA. So… I’m familiar with LibreELEC but isn’t it a Linux distribution? Can it be installed on the device itself (not using HDMI) and if so, how?

I assumed libelec is just enough os to load something up to be low resource. I’ve used it for kodi before. Now I just compile it on slackware. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Right, but to clarify because maybe we aren’t talking about the same thing here, the Nebulas Mars II Pro isn’t an SBC, it’s an Android device (video projector here). So it has to be rooted and install a custom ROM. Are you saying it’s available or know how to make one? Because, again, I’d be eager to try, but it’s not the same process, AFAIK, as installing Slack, LibreElec or whatever on a RPi or dekstop.

Ooh gotcha… I missed something there. It should be possible but not worth the effort. Android boxes are a weird place ngl

Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
