Why not buy a decent computer screen, a mini itx PC and use a TV tuner card?? They come with an IR remote.

The article actually addresses this:

Monitor displays are relatively darker than TV displays. This is because monitors are designed for people who sit up close.

It may not be a problem when you’re watching a movie in a dark room. If you watch with the windows open during the day, however, your monitor won’t be able to produce enough brightness to give you pleasant viewing experience.
