So I finally decided to break down and build an htpc but i have a few questions as far as the software and storage.
I was wondering what everyone would recommend as far as the movie management software/interface? I was really hoping to find something that had an interface similar to Netflix where it would give me a thumbnail of the movie poster that I can select from. Also do not have cable service so I have no need for any dvr/tv guide service if that makes a difference. I have heard of a few such as xbmc or sage, any others i should look at?
Now as far as storage goes, I have a little over 400+ dvds and was not sure what would be the best method. I really would like an option where I can choose between having sub titles or not as well as being able to burn the movie back to a dvd if the need ever came up.
I would like to personally thank everyone who took the time to read this and reply.
