stream movies (if possible) to my media player, but i guess it won't be possible without an ethernet connection, if i want to have a stutter-free playback, isn't it? still looking for suggestion. the classic is connected to the network via a gigabit switch.ģ. presently i do so via the logitech media server installed on my PC and GFH.
stream music from my laptop to logitech squeezebox classic placed in hall. i guess i will need to have a wifi adapter connected to my PC then?! and what about router/NAS?Ģ. share small and large files from my laptop with the PC and NAS (to-and-fro). the laptop however is connected via WiFi. the desktop PC is also connected to the network via ethernet. i can stream movies from the NAS/router to my media player placed in the hall, connected via LAN (ethernet) to the network. I have a router (with optware, transmission, samba) and 2 NAS (a Seagate Goflex Home with Debian, and a Pogoplug Pro) placed centrally at home. currently i just copy the contents onto a flash-drive and move it around across various devices, but want to limit it to minimum. i wish to know what all softwares (preferably free) would i be needing for that purpose.
i wish to share the content that i download on it, with my other devices, like desktop PC, NAS (and router), a media player, a music streamer. for its config, i won't upgrade it to Win 7/8. i have been using it for browsing and downloading purposes since some time. This may take some getting used to if you're used to other home theater software, for example Plex Media Player doesn't support traditional usage of the mouse buttons.I have an old laptop (HP DV6114TX) that i 'revived' sometime back.
It will also inspect your media library and automatically download any missing metadata such as titles, release dates, and so on from TheMovieDB.Īs well as having some great features, Plex Media Player has been designed from the ground up to look great on a TV screen and is compatible with most IR controllers making it really suited to frequent use. Plex Media Player also allows you to easily organize your media into specific categories (such as 'TV Shows', 'Comedy', 'To Watch'.) making it really easy to always find what you are looking for. Additionally it will play movies and TV shows streamed from all the major providers out there. It offers built-in support for local storage (on your PC or network attached storage) as well as for content stored on Plex Media Server. Plex Media Player is designed to be installed on a dedicated computer (PC, Mac and Linux versions are available) connected to your TV, and allows you to access your entire media library and enjoy it on a big screen.
