Try mpv then ;-)
mpv can render video everywhere, even inside a fucking text terminal! Use
--vo=tctargument to render the video into text art. Heck, if you’re using Xorg it can even render into another app window!https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/DOCS/man/vo.rst
Are you tying to watch movies on a smart Fridge? VLC runs on everything. Linux, Mac, Windows, Android, IOS and even Windows Phone had a running version!
If it doesn’t run directly on your “smart” TV just hook it to a device that does run it, its just a monitor if you use a HDMI cable.
I legitimately wouldn’t be surprised if someone has ported VLC to smart refrigerators.
What devices can’t run VLC? thought it was one of those things that even run on a toaster
Some operating systems are restrictive about what APIs they give to applications.

You can’t run vlc? What kind of devices do you have?
A VCR and 26" CRT, why?
Which device doesn’t run VLC?
