    Say I do that.

    Streaming can be done through the browser. Which frontend would I use to access the regular TV channels?

      Sorry, streaming from a browser on a Linux PC is limited to 540x860 due to an inability to establish an HDCP chain. Have you tried using the TV’s native Netflix app instead?

          I was reinforcing your point about using a monitor and a Linux PC not being able to replace all the things a smart TV can do. You said streaming would work, but regular TV channels wouldn’t, and I pointed out that even streaming would be limited as the major streaming services don’t allow full quality via a browser, especially on Linux where HDCP can’t work.

      In france there’s an ISP,Free, that just gives you a .m3u playlist that you can use whenever you want. Maybe there such an ISP where you live…?
