Which software to buy for a NAS box?
Discussion
I’m just about to push the button on buying at RS5 NAS box thanks to recommendations on this forum.
http://www.ava-media.com/p/1166537/rs5x-media-serv...
The question is what software would you recommend to load onto it to manage the music / DVDs?
I have a Sonos that I will point at it for the music but would like an easy interface for the DVD’s.
Ideally something that you could link easily into a decent remote control?
Any ideas?
Thanks

Don't buy that! Insanely overpriced! http://www.ava-media.com/p/1166537/rs5x-media-serv...

That's an amazing line of jargon.
There's no more than £500 of hardware there.

I think you maybe misunderstanding what that box does.
The encoding off the drive is definitely ace and handy solution to ripping on a computer, and array expansion also a boon.Above and beyond that? Or was that aimed at the OP?

How much?! To put that into perspective, this guy built a 40tb NAS for around £2k

Ummm...seems like I've been a bit silly. Well not yet as I haven't ordered it.
I just want something that is easy to rip music in lossless format and DVD's / Blu Rays.
Music will be played via Sonos, DVD's via ???? hence the question about software. I assumed that I would need to buy some interface software to remotely control / browse the DVD's via a TV or Pronto remote etc
Sorry, I know I'm clueless when it comes to this stuff, just need some guidance.
