Could you build this?

Partial The UI and streaming aggregation AI can be vibe-coded, but implementing local network discovery and control protocols for diverse smart TV platforms (Samsung Tizen, LG webOS, Roku, Android/Google TV) involves messy, non-standardized hardware integration.

What it would actually take: The mobile app (React Native/Flutter) requires integrating proprietary SSDP/mDNS network discovery and WebSocket/REST APIs specific to each TV OS (e.g., Samsung SmartView WebSocket protocol with handshake auth, LG WebOS pairing tokens, Roku ECP REST API). Maintaining these connections across disparate local network environments and keeping up with firmware protocol changes requires specialized multi-platform IoT integration knowledge.
