“On 11th November BBC iPlayer will no longer be available directly on this device.”
OK, so, I didn’t purchase this particular (Blaupunkt) TV, but as it’s my mother’s then, well, I’m the one that has to “fix” this.
Personally, I use TVs as a simple screen and watch everything through other devices (Roku, or a Linux PC running MythTV).
I see the BBC website has some links to review sites, but I thought this might be another place to ask for - preferably open source - devices that could be used.
Comments?
I personally use a Nvidia shield (small one) for my tv apps. It’s great and the Android version is current so it gets all the modern versions of apps.
It has Chromecast built in, and many other nice things. Such as upscaling.
My tv supports defaulting to HDMI, without showing its own home screen at all. So its easmless.
Can recommend for your mom, very user friendly.
Might be a bit pricy, got mine on sale.
