I'm curious if anyone here has ever built his own TV box with Kodi or some other app. I'm considering doing that myself. I already own two used Raspberry Pi mini computers that were gifted to me by my brother because he wasn't using them anymore. I like my Roku TV box okay, but I keep getting more and more annoyed with Youtube. They've gotten more and more unreasonable with their ads. The ads used to only play before a video. Now they've set it so that the ads actually interrupt the video, sometimes even mid-sentence. Quite annoying, and they want you to sign up for the paid Youtube. I think if I build my own Kodi TV box there might be a way to block Youtube ads. I was okay with watching the ads before a video, but now that they've pulled this interrupt thing, they've gotten too big for their britches.
So it may be time to bust open these old RPs and figure out how to do it. I may also be able to have it be a retro gaming box with old games like Asteroids and Space Invaders, which would be pretty cool. Just curious if someone has done this.
