What digital format
Hi Iam starting to digitise my DVD collection. Trying ti find the right format. I have ipad, playstation 3 , I phone 5 and laptop with windows. I wouldn't mind some compression for streaming and...
The 312 can stream over DLNA with either the plex server or with readydlna. Plex might be a better choice, as it will give you some on-the-fly transcoding (limited by the 312 CPU - probably not up to 1080p down-conversion).
Some clients and players can use other protocols - my media players can directly SMB/CIFS and NFS shares, and my IOS app (AVPlayer HD) can access via FTP.
As far as over-the-internet playback, the FTP approach can work (with port forwarding), or you can use something like bittorrent sync to upload to the mobile devices. You can also use ReadyNAS Remote (though its performance tends to be very uneven).
Apart from the plex transcoding and bittorrent sync, this can also be done with your duo v1.
Pretty much everything handles H264 natively at this point.
