I think I'm done with Plex, or at least I hope to be. If I wanted to make sure the movie streamed via UDP over TCP, I also have no idea how I would accomplish that. Also, what the best way to build an interface? As much as I hate PHP and web development, building a PHP driven page to list my ripped movies seems like the simplest approach. For those curious, DLNA is a technology used to share content on multiple devices through a local network. I don't want to use a keyboard/mouse connected to my servers that's simply displaying on my TV, rather, I want to be able to continue to just use a remote, preferably the Roku remote but I'm open to using a 2nd remote for the media server. The Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) servers that work with Roku include Plex, Twonky, PlayOn, Serviio, Windows Media Player, and Ready DLNA. But if I create my own media server I don't know that the best way of building, or getting my media server user interface on my TV. When using Plex I just launch the Plex app on my roku TV and it find the Plex server in my house. It can stream or transcode numerous different media formats with little or no configuration.
What I want to do is replace the Terra Master with a small frame computer running Linux rather than the Linux based Terra Master OS. Universal Media Server (UMS) is a DLNA-compliant UPnP Media Server that is cross-platform and supports all major operating systems, including Windows, Linux and Mac OS X. I've become dissatisfied with both for various reasons and I'd like to make my own, but I'm also open to Plex alternatives recommendations. Anyway, got a copy from a mirror site but after installing, I can't connect to the Kodi Repo to install any addons, which makes the RPi useless now.So I've had a media server for a while using Plex as the software with a Terra Master as the hardware. I checked if the site is down but it's not. The problem is that I can't even open their website. I got a Raspberry Pi 4 and wanted to install Kodi on it (for watching movies, tv shows, football, etc.) so I chose OSMC as it's best for the RPi. We support all major operating systems, with versions for Windows, Linux and macOS. Instead of RaspPlex you could use OSMC or LibreElec with Plex Addon. Universal Media Server is a free DLNA, UPnP and HTTP/S Media Server. You could probably configure the system to automatically start up whatever UI you prefer to make it more seamless. I would recommend the same as other commenters: to just use a normal distribution and put something like Kodi on it. Can someone suggest a Smart TV like distro?įrom what I know there aren't many options for this use case, and those that I know of (like OSMC or Plasma Bigscreen) all run on ARM devices like Raspberry Pi, but not x86/64.Also it supports hdmi-cec so you can use your normal tv remote, it's awesome. it's basically an os which boots direcly to kodi. Depending on your hardware it can be pretty solid. Just put osmc on it and use it as media center.
