lazy web: I got a free chromebook, a 2016 model (specifically an HP Chromebook 11 G5 EE (TPN-Q151)).

I have never touched a chromebook before now, and I'd like to use this thing to play videos out the HDMI port.

Any suggestions for how I should do that? Like, upgrade the OS version as much as it goes and keep it mostly stock? install a linux on it? Some combination?

Ideally I'd like to just be running VLC on it

EDIT: Corrected above to HP Chromebook 11 G5 EE
