Hello everynyan,
So this is less so a pirating question and more a setup question. Hope that’s okay?
I’m recently getting back into pirating with streaming going down the shitter. I can catch up on best practices w stuff like the mega thread but I basically want to setup a media device for my parents to stream stuff I pirate.
Any of you have recommendations? Only real catch is I don’t want them to have to do much besides turn something on and off. My mom has gotten a lot more computer literate these last years but fiddling w stuff will definitely put her off.
Things I’ve considered:
- Plex server, not really thrilled about streaming stuff straight from my house
- SBC w/ whatever media app is easiest these days and just delivering a new drive w stuff now and then
Thanks, -shitass
Like others have said, use Plex! I use it to share my library with my tech illiterate parent, they just have to install the Plex app on their Roku (or any other streaming device) and then I logged into my account on the app. The connection is secure end to end and it’s really not much different than the Netflix experience that most users are used to.
Setup proper port forwarding in your router and keep your Plex server up to date and you should be good to not worry about streaming media out from your house.
