    What suggestions do you have for simple media players that techy people could recommend to their families? It seems like for the most part we’re limited to Android-based devices or the Apple TV.

        Depending on how maintenance-free this is once it’s configured (because non-technical people are not going to mess with things), this actually looks like a pretty solid solution. Thank you!

          It’s been years since I’ve used Kodi but I remember after it being set up it was pretty solid. I’m sure it’s been improved since then
