Taplist on TV through USB

[sicktght311]

Anyone using their home bar/brewing area tv as a taplist without using something like Taplist through Firestick? I've got an LED tv in my basement bar/brewing area that has Roku built in, but i see Taplist.io is only compatible with Firestick. Seems silly to purchase Firestick considering my TV has Roku built in. I thought about just building a 1920x1080 image file on my PC, designing and writing out a taplist template that i can easily edit, and then exporting it to a USB drive to plug into the Tv. Anyone else doing something similar, or have a solution that doesnt involve a peripheral device such as Raspberry Pi or Firestick?

Would Roku's photo screen saver functionality work? I think Photoview or look for Photo Apps in the Roku App Store. Have not tried it myself.

I use a Pi with taplist... works great.

Edit: Oh, sorry, you said a solution without another device... sorry, nothing comes to mind with Roku.

Roku is a very difficult platform to load custom things into. If you decide to use another device Firesticks are frequently on sale for $25 or even $15, or you could use a Raspberry Pi zero for $5.

You use a fire stick connected to a tv to put up a taplist ?

Sorry for commenting on an old thread but just in case anyone else looking now has the same question. I had the same problem so I built pubmenu.app
