    Project mention: Ask HN: What are some good apps to have in Android TV | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-06-09

    VLC is good for radio streams...but you must use http not https URLs (otherwise it doesn't display tags)

    go-chromecast for watching Youtube without commercials. Also for casting video files

    Built-in Screensaver is nice...

    Spotify is great on big screen when TV is connected to decent stereo. My favourite way to listen to music recently..

    Sometimes I watch Bloomberg using its app.

    I generally keep Google TV in "Apps only" mode... Down to bare minimum.

    Project mention: What's your post-flight work flow? | /r/dji | 2023-06-14

    And solving number 3, organizing all those videos in such a way that they don't just sit on an external harddrive, was a hard one. I found the Android TV program Aerial Views and use it to randomly cycle through my raw drone videos on a TV as a screensaver, using a Chromecast (a $30 Android TV gizmo). It works really well and has really helped me keep track of all the videos I've watched. Which also helps me see the mistakes I made while flying.
