Hey guys,
Here's the thing: I have been running an HTPC for ever (even got it tolerated by the wife) but in the recent months/years, our habits have changed to the point where I wonder if I could simplify things a bit and get a better experience.
We are (virtually) never using the DVB-T card in the HTPC anymore as we don't watch Free to Air TV. We mostly watch Netflix and some ...hum... local content (*.mp4, etc...)
We have an Audio Receiver, a (non smart TV) and a Harmony Remote.
Can you guys suggest a media Client that would give us a great user experience with remote friendly control (Wifi/Phone control as well would be cool)
I know of Amazon TV, Roku, etc.. but not sure if there is one device out there that would suit our needs the best.
One thing I insist on is being able to bitstream surround sound from my local content to my receiver (Dolby Digital, DTS, etc..)
Any ideas?
Thanks
