Turn Your Regular TV into a Smart TV With KDE Plasma Bigscreen.

Do you want to turn your dumb TV into a smart one?
Or maybe you would prefer to have a more privacy respecting, open source operating system powering your TV experience?
Just take one part KDE Plasma,
one part Rasbperry Pi 4,
and one part Mycroft AI voice assistant,
and you’ve got Plasma Bigscreen.
It’s a new venture that transforms
the KDE Linux desktop into a “10 foot experience”
using the speed and flexibility of KDE Neon,
complete with voice control and Alexa-like assistant skills.

Hello guys Kuntal is back here again
today we will take a look at the
new operating system for the
Raspberry Pi 4
called plasma big screen

The Plasma Bigscreen image is easily flashed onto a microSD card like most other Pi operating systems.
Here is a quick overview what to do after you downloaded the latest beta img for your rpi4:

Download Development Preview (BETA) image from
plasma-bigscreen.org
its about 1.8 GB image.
After downloading the img, use etcher or similar program to flash the img on to a microsdcard of at least 8GB size

After flashing, you may resize the available space on the microsdcard by using kpartitionmanager or gparted if you plan to extensively install more software on it

You should see a rainbow image shortly flashing up, then loading the operating system and showing the Plasma Bigscreen Welcome screen


Plasma Bigscreen powers the interface
on a single-board computer
and uses the Mycroft AI voice assistant
to provide a smart TV platform
---------------------
Plasma Bigscreen will deliver not only media-rich applications, but also traditional desktop applications redesigned to fit the Bigscreen experience.
---------------------
Plasma Bigscreen is described as a free open-source UI experience for big-screen TVs. The Pi version is still in its beta stage, so expect a few bugs as well as improvements along the way. The UI is catered specifically to a TV experience it even supports remote control operation. To make things a little more modern, you can also use voice controls to navigate.
