How standardized a lcd panels? Could I replace the controller in a smart TV with one of these HDMI to LCD controllers?
It depends on the TV.
Yeah, I am definitely going to open up my $400 tv and replace the LCD controller with this sketchy piece of hardware instead of, checks notes, just not activating any of the smart features and not connecting the TV to the internet at all.
Until you get a Roku where you literally can't use the TV without accepting an arbitration clause.
What are you trying to accomplish? Just reset the TV and keep it off the internet.
Many smart TVs require you connect to create an account. More might in the future.
Probably not but you can buy digital signage. You will pay upwards of $4k potentially based on your needs.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
