I’m just about to push the button on buying at RS5 NAS box thanks to recommendations on this forum.

The question is what software would you recommend to load onto it to manage the music / DVDs?

I have a Sonos that I will point at it for the music but would like an easy interface for the DVD’s.

Ideally something that you could link easily into a decent remote control?

Any ideas?

Thanks

Ummm...seems like I've been a bit silly. Well not yet as I haven't ordered it.

I just want something that is easy to rip music in lossless format and DVD's / Blu Rays.

Music will be played via Sonos, DVD's via ???? hence the question about software. I assumed that I would need to buy some interface software to remotely control / browse the DVD's via a TV or Pronto remote etc

Sorry, I know I'm clueless when it comes to this stuff, just need some guidance.
