Hey guys,
I have been using XBMC on my win PC as my main interface for my large Movie & TV series collection for sometime now, I used to play these via the PC to my TV.
I have recently moved and the missus doesn't want the PC in the living room anymore.
I have taken the opportunity to upgrade and try and make the user experience as easy as possible (Wife Friendly!!!)
Basically I am after a streamer or player that can access my files that I have transferred across to my new Synology NAS.
I have had a look at what is about and to be honest I have about 5 different products in mind but just cannot decide what to go for.
Here are my requirements and I would appreciate any comments that you guys may have.
XBMC a must
Very Quiet - I hate noise during films
1080p
HD DTS Audio or DTS Pass though
I would prefer a stand-alone player but if a HTPC is peoples options then I am capable of the build so no problems there.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Dean
