I decided to build a custom TV dashboard that could be displayed on the TV when we weren't watching anything.
Raspberry Pi 5 Brand Raspberry Pi Storage 8GB It's only recommended for tech-savvy users, but the Raspberry Pi 5 is a tinkerer's dream.
The Raspberry Pi 4 and Raspberry Pi 5 have micro-HDMI ports, and while I have plenty of standard HDMI cables in my boxes of tech junk, finding a micro-HDMI cable would have been far more of a challenge.
My custom TV dashboard was visible on my smart TV.
