Display PBI Reports, Dashboards or Apps on TV screen as slideshow

I have a frequently reoccurring question and see just bits and pieces but no holistic complete solution on this important topic. PBI should make this a top priority to solve ASAP as lots of people and business face this and it is in the interest of Microsoft / PBI that Reports, Dashboards and Apps are shared and made visible to others. I think 'sharing topic' is well-covered, but showing a slideshow on TV screen is a great miss at the moment. I see comments that you can do this with Chromcast and Intel compute stick, but would be great to have a matrix overview of what is possible/not possible with these solutions and what associated cost are. There are also solutions like PowerBI Robots, ScreenCloud, etc.... but these are more premium solutions that are expensive for smaller businesses.

Only I see that there is a Microsoft PowerBI app for Windows environment but this is limited flexibility as we should be able to run slideshows on PBI multiple dashboard and specifically Apps! on a TV screens in slideshow mode....

I personally would be enthusiastic with a solution for a slideshow mode for a published App as that gives more flexibility with combining data from different type of datasets you run into a single created slideshow.

We've waiting for this solution. As early adopters of Power Bi, since 2015, we've hoped to see this feature available sooner.
