[PLUG] Linux music/video server
|
Is anyone using Linux as a music and/or video server? I had been looking
at the Onkyo series of "net tune" receivers but I am also considering
doing it as a standalone box in conjunction with a "better" pre-amp, like
a B&K.
I would envision a Linux cd or USB memory card bootable system with a good
audio card like a SB audigy that has optical or coax output to the preamp.
It would have ethernet to connect to the server.
I would store my music, ripped from my CD's on a server probably in a near
lossless MP3 or WMA format.
I haven't thought much about video since that take a lot of space. Maybe I
will wait for the terabyte perpendicular recording drives coming out next
year.
