See, that's more realistic.

I'd need a dedicated computer, because my PC doesn't live in the lounge, but I'm seriously considering doing it. My Chromecast has been pissing me off lately.

Look at some n95 NUCs on Amazon, or any mini pc really. Often less than 200$ for a full windows PC that can stream anything you throw at it.

You can get decently capable machines for under $100 if you go used

You can buy small PCs for cheap now. A lot of them don't even need active cooling
