You underestimate my power, I see a Settings menu, and instantly enter a fugue state, 30 minutes pass and I suddenly come back to myself, my desktop environment looks entirely different, the windows are wobbly, and GTK window theming is broken.
I need help
Agreed, you’re probably going to run into network bottlenecks before storage read times become an issue
Most TVs these days have a USB port for exactly this purpose, you can load media files up onto a flash drive and plug it in, then you should be able to browse the files and play it from there.
However, if you want to be able to play files hosted on your PC without having to copy them to a drive, you would have to set up a media server like Jellyfin on your PC and either buy or build a compatibility for your TV. Fire TV sticks or a Chromecast would work as cheap options to buy, or you could look into hosting a Kodi instance if you have spare hardware lying around.
There are really a ton of options, my above suggestions are only scratching the surface.
That’s really neat to see, it’s awesome devs are inspired by those classics. Hopefully they’re able to capture that same magic with this game, I’m definitely interested in checking it out once it releases.
Super cool! I came across this a few days ago myself actually, and it’s really cool how easy it is to set up. Sadly I’m running Windows at the moment on my main gaming rig, so I’m still using Sunshine for now.
