Best stick for auto boot into browser and displaying a graphic website

by localithero

Title says it all. Currently at work we have built-in Android on the TV, Android 8.0 .. and it's slow. We want to show a webpage that has images, maybe a video..

So my plan is to connect an AndroidTV stick to our TV. TV can be automatically set to start with HDMI1. Can AndroidTV be configured in such a way it automatically opens a webpage after boot?

If this is for signage, a Raspberry Pi (esp. a Ras Pi Zero W) would probably work out better for you.

Theoretically it can. Install Launcher Manager, set the browser as the launcher and your website as a homepage. Download Android TV version of Launcher Manager here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/app-firetv-noroot-launcher-manager-change-launcher-without-root.4176349/

Friend of mine runs a dry cleaner shop and he put his images in a Google photos account and just uses the screensaver feature on Chromecast for this.
