Hi all, I have a Proxmox server hidden away where it annoys nobody, and a small PC I'm the TV cabinet that I need to turn On/OFF every time I use it and when a movie needs to be transcoded, the fan spins like crazy.

Have anybody tried to use a Windows VM and share the desktop with NDI? In this way I just need an NDI decoder behind the TV and all the job will be done by the server.

Any thoughts about this?

Edit: NDI: Network Device Interface: basically it's an audio/video (and intercom) transmission over IP with low latency. The sender could be an hardware encoder or a software.

The Netflix part makes it a little tougher.

Maybe an android box?

Those are all chinese non branded products and none of them support 4K (maybe not even 2K) ☹️

What about a NVidia Shield?
