I have 16TB NAS dedicated to storing TV shows. It is just a cabinet with ryzen 2600 and no graphics card. I have installed openmediavault in it to access it via smb to other devices. I am an absolute noob in setting up a server. Please tell me how I should go on about turning it into a media consumption machine.
P. S: I usually use VLC on android and MPV on linux to consume the media.
Yep it’s not simple, but also not too difficult. Get a domain name and set up DNS. Open 80/443 on your router, use linuxserver.io’s SWAG container for easy automatic cert generation/renewal and nginx reverse proxy to access your hosted services. Have a decent upload speed. That’s about it
