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

      Cloudstream is awesome but buggy. Sometimes you have to fiddle with sources to get a stream going

        That’s one thing. Also adding sources manually. It won’t the the issue when someone is there to help, but websites disappear and somebody has to update those lists.
