      That’s one solution… unless someone wants to use the computer while you’re watching something, it’s fine. For any shared access TV/computer set up, this falls apart quickly.

      I want my SO to be able to watch something on the TV while I’m playing a game though (and vice versa). Personally all of my stuff is independent, we each have a gaming computer, and the TV ruins separately of all of it. We have a Samsung smart TV and it has a Chromecast attached, so we have options there… but not everyone is set up like me.

        Nobody’s using this computer except me and nobody uses it for media except during group nights so it’s no problem. Technically it has a PlayStation hooked up to it that could be used for DVDs/Blu-rays but that never happens.
