Yes, just connect a small computer and then install Firefox with unlock origin on there.

ideally something that could be used with a remote control or easily through the phone instead of plain firefox.

Someone else in this thread mentioned TizenTube, that sounds like what you're looking for.

But personally I just grabbed an Nvidia Shield. It works great and if you swap out the default launcher you'll never see a single ad on it (with the right apps). Plus the pro is beefy enough to run some decent emulators too.

i have a couple of options i want to experiment with, but this tizentube thing sounds like a nice to have.
