I helped a friend hook one of these up to an old Linux machine. Super easy to do. Just uses it to watch Netflix or YouTube

What’s there to fix? Just hook up a video input and you’re golden.

Could you maybe just connect a cheap android box and use it like that?

Or anything with an HDMI plug.

my previous flatmate bought one of these digital menus used and it had a single DP input, he used a Chromecast and a box that extracted HDMI audio via TOSLINK and then a HDMI to DP converter for the panel. It worked great and it was a very cheap solution for the time.
