Okay, first off I know there are topics about it on Google. But I've some questions and I thought it wouldn't hurt, if I ask them here
So, what I want to do is simple: I have a desktop computer, a laptop and an iPod.
I want to have my desktop computer to be able to stream my media files to my other devices. I Don't Want To Build Server (Hardware)!
My desktop computer runs on Windows 8 (not 8.1), updated to latest patch.
12 GB of RAM.
Enough HDD space.
8-core AMD CPU (Can't look it up atm).
And here are my questions:
1) What Software?
2) Do I have bandwidth requirements? (Wlan-wise)
3) Do I need any "special" codecs?
I'll extend the list with ongoing advice
I appreciate your time to read through this.
