A plan to control all home TVs from one media dashboard
The home has several TVs with different limits, so watching something depends on which room is being used. One TV can use for Jellyfin and Amazon Prime, another is the only one that allows Netflix sign-in, and a third is barely used because it only plays Amazon Prime.
Small PCs that were going to be recycled would be connected to each TV, so the TVs can act like simple screens. The goal is one central or that manages sign-ins for Jellyfin and services.
A web page or would let someone choose a service and a movie or show, then send it to the chosen TV. Each would connect to the and play whatever it is told to show on the screen.
Key points
- Different TVs in the house support different options, which makes viewing inconsistent.
- The plan is to attach a PC to each TV and use the TVs mainly as screens.
- The desired setup has one central for choosing Jellyfin or a service.
- A web page or would send the chosen movie or show to a selected TV.
- Paid services may be hard to unify because of sign-in and playback restrictions.
