I have aac mini with an infared reciever on it. I’d love to use it as a TV PC. And ideally an infared remote too.

I am looking for software recommendations for this, as I’ve done basically no research.

What’s my best option? Linux with kodi? How would a remote connect / which software is required for the remote to work??

Thanks!

    Kodi has the IR stuff built in from what I remember. At least on windows it did years ago. You just need a “media remote” at one point called windows media remote. It’s a usb or receiver with a regular IR remote.

    After a quick google here is a list I found.
