Hooking Up your Stream TV Media Center and Tips for the tech Savvy.
Once you have your Stream TV Media Center to hook it up to your TV you can simply run an HDMI Cable from the Video Card at the back to the TV. To hook up your audio you have a couple of options. You could run the audio out from your TV with an optical cable if you have a newer TV. However, if you have an older TV you may have to use RCA jacks to run from the TV out ports on your TV to the surround sound system or tuner. (Please do your research make sure your TV and surround sound system or tuner is capable of this prior to purchasing your Stream TV Media Center)
Now if you are a technically savvy person you can convert your whole DVD/Blue Ray library to a hard drive. This will allow you to search for a movie without having to get off the couch. The Plex Server software included with your Stream Tv Media center will be fully capable of reading converted video files in whatever quality you convert them to. Two of the more common pieces of software used to transfer movies from DVD or Blue-ray to a single file is DVDFab and Handbrake. There are many pieces of software that are capable of doing this. These are just the two we are most familiar with.
Don’t Forget the Music!
Last but not least Plex will import all of your music from your I-tunes folder so you can play them over the Plex server to your surround sound system or your tuner.
What about Gaming?
Our Stream TV Media Centers are so powerful you can use it for a gaming machine. You can serf the internet from your living room arm chair or you can just spend all of your time on Amazon.com Shopping.
