The problem is the toolkit offered, more than anything else. Kodi needs lots of native code hooks into the OS, which Tizen, WebOSTV, etc don't support, or at least don't give access freely. Otherwise Kodi could be on every platform.. Most TV OS's that aren't Android TV or Roku require you to write web-based apps (unless you're Netflix or YouTube, but another story there) which abstract all the 'good stuff' out, so impossible to run Kodi on. Roku is an even worse mess (forcing you to use Brightscript, a digital signage language they bought forever go and still maintain)

Excited you guys made it into YC! I've been in a Termius subscriber since 2016 (please don't kill early adopter subs!) and it's been worth every penny. Also used ServerAuditor and paid for that too. :)

I have transitioned to using the desktop app almost entirely (altho it's annoying my mosh windows don't just stay connected all the time like they used too) and can't wait for React/WebGL to speed it up.

It would be awesome if there was a CLI app I could run that I could send a push notification that I could click on from my phone and it launches termius with the appropriate host. Currently I'm using pushover, but when I get something I have to flip into termius and manually connect.

I'll post more of my ideas into uservoice. :) Thanks for being prompt on responding to emails too, I can't wait until the new rendering engine (react I assume) doesn't suck!

Not exactly, 'protected' channels are only supported by Windows Media Center, TiVo and SiliconDust's DVR right now. But majority of the channels on cable networks aren't protected, as long as you're not with TWC or Cox anyways..
