The funny thing is, we’re saying the same thing. The only difference is that after considering doing the whole NAS thing multiple times, I have always stopped myself before diving in. For the same reasons you give, after having done it.

If I was to put my entire collection on NAS, it would cost at least a couple thousand $ in drives. There are people who seem to be doing that. Add in NAS hardware costs, and the total is far from what I consider to be “negligible”. I use the Zidoo for HD TV shows and Reg B movies, and a...

The tools to match the objective. I see people here probably spending thousands of $ on hard drives alone, in order to put everything they own on NAS. That seems completely absurd to me. If that is the goal, I suspect a solution using Apple TVs, apps, or similar devices for multiple...

That's what I figured, but wanted to be certain. Yeah, each Zidoo is an isolated destination. There also isn't a simple way to sync them, as far as I know. Though it can transfer everything from one player to another, but that seems to be intended for moving to a new player. So, multiple...

Just to add, the Zidoo allows you to configure that. I have it ignore "A" and "The" at the beginning of titles, but you can just leave that option blank. A couple little things I think are stupid in how the Zidoo works. It has a "Currently Watching" page, like a lot of players, but it times...

You'll have to dumb your question down a bit for me. In particular, what is meant by "clients".

However, I am reaching the 16TB of the one internal drive I have. So I'm venturing into adding a 4 bay external enclosure.

Honestly, I've had very little trouble with the Zidoo. I just always look at https://www.themoviedb.org/ to make certain I have file naming correct. It's even found some pretty obscure movie titles. TV shows have worked perfectly in all but one small instance. That is Battlestar Galactica...

I've talked about it a little elsewhere, but I have a similar Zidoo media player to what Craig has. Mine has an internal drive bay, and they have ones with two bays, but they all can access NAS storage and have USB ports. So, you could use exclusively NAS and have a player like the Z9 in each...

@John Dirk , the Zidoo is a media player, so yeah, it is basically its own media server. If I’m understanding your question. Use local storage and/or NAS, and just point it to them. If the file naming is done right, it indexes them automatically and creates the library.
