[Custom Linux] powered Smart TV breaks free from Ads and tracking, enables ultimate Customizability. :linux: đşď¸
Software engineer [Carl Riis] has announced his first hardware project, dubbed EarlGreyTV. It is a Smart TV project that differentiates itself from the usual âidiot boxâ dominating your living room by leveraging the wonders of Linux and Firefox, plus an old laptop.

In addition to the TV and remote, a CEC adaptor is useful for the seamless operation of the EarlGreyTV. In brief, this adaptor sends commands to the TV via the HDMI connection. The key benefit of adding this to the setup is that it means this TV can be controlled with one remote. Thus, the original Samsung TV remote isnât needed to turn the TV on and off.

The concept behind EarlGreyTV is easy to understand, but the project wasnât without its stumbling blocks. It took a modicum of finessing on both the hardware and software sides of the equation to get the project to a point where it works well for non-techy people.](https://nerdculture.de/system/media_attachments/files/112/779/324/912/307/475/small/a155862285881ea7.png "[ImageSource: Carl Riis]

An essential part of the work behind this project was on software. The old spare laptop used to power this Smart TV experience had Debian Linux with Sway as a desktop environment installed. Sway was set to auto-launch Firefox full screen and open up a custom EarlGreyTV HTML file, which provided easily editable and navigable shortcuts to all the content.](https://nerdculture.de/system/media_attachments/files/112/779/325/381/466/602/small/23f0ce9e31b1ef5a.png "[ImageSource: Carl Riis]
