synestine,

Is there a way yet to in-place upgrade or is it still only “flash a new SD”?

synestine,

Personally, I use Kodi for that. It works very well with minimal keyboard and no mouse (though it can handle both), so much so that I’ve run it for years using only an IR remote.

synestine,

I use Jellyfin as a backend for my Kodi boxes (I have 3, and JF keeps them in sync). I used to have a YouTube plugin, but YT broke that this year.

synestine,

Slackware 1.2, because it came on a CD in the back of a fat paperback manual I got at Barnes and Noble. It was only later that I learned what a distro is.

Currently on Fedora with a Frankenstein desktop of my own concoction.

synestine,

It’s more because they provide an ONVIF interface or an RTSP stream that makes them self-hosting darlings. Them being Chinese white-labels and cheap is mainly a side-bonus.

What are your recommendations if not them?

synestine,

You mean besides Fedora?

synestine,

Really? Which ones?

synestine,

Wait, you object to their feely-distributable firmware updates? Seriously? Without those, your CPU is vulnerable to exploits and known hacks.
