pirating for parents that lack technical literacy?

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

  • I'm in a similar situation. I use 2 plex servers and Synching. Whenever I add media to my server at home, it syncs to their server. Don't have to worry about random upload spikes.

    • Great. Now you have two servers to maintain + storage to buy. Idk how much space you'd need but a VPS would almost make more sense.
