      Kodi exists however it’s a client only, it is not made to host content. You are looking for jellyfin

        Eh, I’m pretty sure it is. Haven’t had Kodi running for a while, but I used it on a Raspberry Pi with an USB HDD with my content long before I had Jellyfin. Though it cannot stream the content over network, just display it on the machines video output (which is what media PCs do)

        That was what I was leaning towards. Do you (or does anyone) happen to know if it is easy to get going on Bazzite? And if so, does it play nice with a Steam controller?
