pirating for parents that lack technical literacy? (sh.itjust.works)

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

Have to setup port forwarding to make it available outside your network.

I tried running it off my main PC for awhile, but it's kind of a pain and impacted my gaming sessions. Moved it onto a $400 Lenovo server I got off eBay to great effect. Used unRAID to setup a simple server for it. Lots and lots of guides out there for it with a great community. Have since upgraded beyond that server, but it was a great start.
