Using Kodi on an rpi5. Its not perfect, but it works.
The libreelec OS for kodi supports configuring VPN directly on the OS. Avoid the add on VPN option, it was very unstable.
However, I found the Youtube Addon just didnt work with VPN configured AND jellyfin, setup through an nginx proxy did this annoying bug where it would stop playback upon resume. Having an infant means you'll pause and resume circa 37 times during a 10 minute clip, so pretty frkn annoying.
Anyway, my wife doesnt believe me, but I love it.
Oh, and I use a full mini keyboard from Rii as a remote controller, as I'd probably off myself if I had to use the tv remote.
Dont get the one with the red buttons at the top, because then you have to be VERY CAREFUL not to accidently touch them if you want to move the damn thing, or they'll fuck up your playback 😂
Whew, lots of frustration got out with this half guide half vent..
