I understand. But that should make you automatically realise that you should give that old fat/broken laptop a chance to be plugged into your TV. Put a 10 $ remote mini keyboard there and no one will touch the TV interface again.
And how does that help with any of the questions I asked? It may be a possibility but it is neither easy, nor comfortable, and it takes way more time to keep that up to date then it is worth.
It may be great for you, maybe you are young or alone or have for whatever reason else time to waste on that.
I pay and have it work on every device without any further work or time investment. It just works!
