Hello chaps/ chapettes,
I am looking for some advice.
I have a pretty extensive DVD collection and I have the intention of ripping them all off and putting them on an external hardrive allowing me to chuck them up in the loft and save living room space.
I am capable of technical stuff but the final operations have to be pretty simple so that the Mrs can still watch stuff when I am not there.
Ripping them is no problem as I know fully how to do this.
I want advice regarding the best means of watching them as video files from a hard drive. I do have a PS3 which I could watch the films through, is this the best idea or does anyone have any other suggestions?
Has anyone used a media centre thingy with built in HD? Are they any good?
What about the Apple TV? can you connect a drive to that?
Wireless? I am open to suggestions.
Your advice is appreciated. Cheers.
