Which means I would have to connect another internet device to the TV where the same problem happens again. Going exclusively Jellyfin or whatever is not a solution at this time permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] scala@lemmy.ml 3 points 7 months ago (1 child) Yeah...

Is Google TV full of ads? I haven't used one. Could be an option to reset your TV, disconnect it from the Internet, and buy & use a Google TV device instead. The streaming devices seem to have far fewer ads and shit than TV manufacturers cram into their devices nowadays. The hoops we have to jump through to minimise surveillance capitalism.. I see elsewhere in the thread you've had to use a PiHole to block most of the TVs traffic. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] RedstoneValley@sh.itjust.works 2 points 7 months ago I have an old Chromecast but it's not 4k.
