The perfect home theater setup with automated downloads
Posted by Roy Tomeij | Filed under Miscellaneous, Software
A friend of mine asked me to write about my (near perfect) home theater setup, including the automated downloading of new episodes of TV series. This post is a first attempt, and I will probably revise it numerous times in the future.
Please note that downloading (not distributing) TV series for personal use is legal in my jurisdiction.
My setup involves an HD-Ready TV (720p), Mac Mini, Harman/Kardon 5.1 receiver, SABnzbd+, Eweka, XBMC, MyTvNZB, TheTvDB & more. I will go over it in the following chapters:
- hardware & connection
- automated downloading
- organizing & watching
