I have been experimenting with yauiclient for the RPi4 and 5 and I am pretty happy with results and I'd like to see if any of you are interested in helping test it. My target is the current Raspberry PI OS 64 bit.
It is using the same optimized ffmpeg decoding as LibreELEC so performance is reasonable. I didn't hook up CEC or any IR remotes but RF and BT remotes seem to work as expected and mirror the functionality of NextPVR.exe and other UI clients.
This client can ran full screen with no desktop manager with the Lite install (I am considering this as a self boot fullscreen environment) or with a desktop manager, I tested with wayland and pipewire. NextPVR server can run on the same RPi too, and it isn't that impactful but my primary focus is feedback from NextPVR users, not on on syncing it with the server.
For testing best to start with a version SD card.
