    I’ve been using a Raspberry Pi 400 with LibreELEC installed. Mostly watch 4K HDR Blu-ray Remuxes that I have on another machine with a Samba server. Works really well for me.

    Another good option would be to have Jellyfin on a media server and cast to the TV or use the TV directly if it has a Jellyfin app (I know there are official apps for Roku and WebOS (LG)). Jellyfin is similar to Plex but open-source and fully local (no need for an external account).

    Of course, this is only works for local media. For streaming, just use a Chromecast.














  • The Nvidia driver on Wayland has been decent for a couple of years and stabilized a lot over the past ~6 months. The flickering issue was specific to XWayland. Normal Wayland apps don’t have flickering problems (not quite sure why tbh), but XWayland apps would often rapidly flicker between 2 frames since it only supported implicit sync, which confused the Nvidia driver, which only supports explicit sync. Now with a Wayland protocol for explicit sync, XWayland can be updated to support it and resolve the flickering there.
