Hello MRO!
>> Another option might be to install a conventional browser and
>> operate that as an app.
M> Have them get an androidtv box if they want to use their television for
M> more than a television.
The client is a bit of a luddite. Extra gear just confuses
him.
M> you can get one on amazon with a gaming controller with keyboard and mouse
M> built in, and a remote control for 40 bucks
One of the first things I had already done was connect a kb and
mouse. That made a world of difference for manipulating the tv
browser. The orig article mentioned how terrible the browser is
but it did not mention that the tv can also allow attaching kb
and mouse.
The client has never used a computer mouse! ..so, watching him
get acquainted with "left-click" "right-click" and controlling
scrolling is a bit strainful. I figure that maybe some kind of
computer game on the tv would help.
