Earlier, I had figured out a few tricks and techniques to run top-selling Android games on the existing China TV boxes. The rest of the folks from this new company are good at operations, supply chain management, marketing, branding, and hiring. I am the last piece of the puzzle to handle the tech. We have already approached a couple of investors, and the future looks promising.
There are a lot of things to be figured out. How to run games on the stock TV ROM. If it is possible to extract the drivers and other modules, can I build my own OS by compiling it from the AOSP source? How do I keymap touch events to joystick gamepad events? How do I push the updates? How do we ensure these keymappings work by default for all screen sizes and resolutions?
The final question is: should I even be working on this problem statement full-time. I am going to get decent equity, but I feel the problem statement is overly simplified. I might have less time to learn or figure things out after the funding happens, and I might not have so much mental freedom to seek out and make mistakes.
