Simplest possible setup for casual home karaoke: - Just a computer, HDMI cable, and TV - TV provides both display and audio - Singers sing into the room without amplification - Perfect for small rooms, kids' parties, practice sessions
The previous setup assumed HDMI audio to TV speakers, but laptop HDMI output is typically video-only. Revised to use the laptop's headphone jack with an aux cable to a powered speaker for audio, while keeping HDMI for lyrics display on the TV. Also added a "Why a Laptop?" section explaining the advantages over a Raspberry Pi for this minimal setup. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
Bluetooth is more accessible for casual users - most people already own a Bluetooth speaker and know how to pair it. Aux cable moved to a tip for those who prefer zero latency or don't have Bluetooth. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
No longer "the most accessible setup" since the laptop + Bluetooth speaker setup is simpler. Reworded to "the simplest setup that includes a microphone." Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>

Adds a Basic Setup section for the simplest possible karaoke setup - just a computer and TV, no microphones.
Status: Draft - needs verification that this actually works with decent audio quality.
Open questions:
Parking this until we can verify a working setup.
