I have a tech question.

So I want to put all (or most) of my dvd and blu-rays on my Tv so that I can just play what I want when I want. What should I use to do this, an external hard drive?

 

Use a label maker

 

You need to rip them onto your PC/external into AVI , MKV, or what have you. You can find free apps or trials....just google DVD ripper/burner. Then dump onto your TV from the hard drive. Make sure you know what types of video files your TV can play.

 

I dunno

Hey mojo, have you used this? Will it upload the cover art as well? This looks pretty good, thanks.

 

Just pick up a Kaleidscape.

 

Oh you are a riot Alice, bang zoom.

 

I can look through one of those for minutes before I get bored.

 

So I rip them onto an external drive, connect that drive to my tv via HDMI, and play from there?

 

You are awesome reggae.

 

a what?

That's a kaleidoscope. They are different.

 

I have uploaded some of my movies to iTunes using a DVD ripper, and I can then play it through my AppleTV on my HDTV.

It works, but the files take up a lot of room. So you'd need a massive HD, and a method to route iTunes to it.

 

We have a winner, I think?

That is exactly what I was looking for that I never knew existed. Thank you so much.
