You do not need to have this media server be on the same hardware as the storage, either - you can simply point your library to an existing NAS share and provided you have a performant enough NAS or file server, they will work fine with network mounted storage, even with up to 10+ clients on a single GbE NIC (though I recommend two teamed GbE NICs if you can). For those that want a very simple and cheap server that’s easy to set up, and can easily handle saving media, then a Raspberry Pi is probably the best choice. These will allow you to stream the movie and even handle extras from a disc properly if you set them up correct - something with a 6th gen or later Intel CPU, or 4th gen with nVidia GPU, will handle both pure bit streaming as well as transcoding to lower bitrate formats. Server software can be installed on most types of hardware, but it ultimately depends on the budget of the person building the server, and what they intend to do with it. Plex may as well, but after they tried to be more than just a basic media streamer I moved off of Plex wholesale. You can use something like Chameleon MediaCenter to handle ISO mounting, but it's definitely not where I'd like it to be.īoth Jellyfin and Emby do support ISOs and will extract it properly. I've run something like this for years straight off of a file server, but for just ISO files the best option (mounting for Windows Media Center using MyMovies) is discontinued.
