I personally use a Nvidia shield (small one) for my tv apps. It's great and the Android version is current so it gets all the modern versions of apps.
It has Chromecast built in, and many other nice things. Such as upscaling.
My tv supports defaulting to HDMI, without showing its own home screen at all. So its seamless.
Can recommend for your mom, very user friendly.
Might be a bit pricy, got mine on sale.
Good point about the default video source. I had to use “hotel mode” on 1 TV to get that to work... I'll check what this one does
thanks
