I have a raspberry Pi 4B that is connected to a CRT TV via Composite and controlled with a PS4 controller. I’d like to use the Pi for Netflix, Plex client, and playing DVDs from an ext drive. What distro would be best for this?

I tossed Retro Pi onto it and the controls work great but I can’t figure out how to install the media apps.

    Its absolutely possible I fear. Instead of plex I use composite which does work well imo but some apps work badly and the feedback/update cycle seems very dysfunctional. That part imo is even worse than mobile linux since it is even more niche and fractured.

      Hmm. Maybe I should just toss Ubuntu onto it and use a Bluetooth mouse instead of a controller.
