Which again, works under my current setup so, should work under Linux, just no idea how. no logitech, no Rii, no anything other than my Sony universal TV remote. Rather use it as an external backup drive for the 250GB SSD on my main PC. Plus 250GB for an OS and Kodi is overkill in size. more because my old 250GB drive (although works great) is loud, and because of the case setup, the back of the HDD faces the front bezel so the sound really echoes through.

for what it is, I'm not blowing a tonne of money on a good drive like my PC has, I'm just looking for a $25 SSD on eBay. So, a 32GB SSD drive should do the trick then. just looking to switch the OS because I heard that Linux based systems take fewer resources and maybe runs a bit better. My setup has worked great for years, I know the setup can work because it does work.

Half the the time I get 0 response, or when I do, people kinda ignore the OP and immediately jump at throwing money at the problem (upgrade this, buy a different remote, switch to an android box). Sadly, their forums use to be great and helpful, not so much anymore. Running an OS from USB as a pre-test, not really an option, lot of work to make it work and kinda "iffy" when it does.
just want to gather as much info as I can now before pulling my hair out later.Īlso, older motherboard.

it's just a formatted drive full of files.ġ - What would work best? Linux Mint? Ubuntu? OpenElec? LibreElec?Ģ - Can I have the same drive share setup I have now cross platforms? Because my PC is Win7圆4, other HTPCs are Win7圆4.ģ - How much drive space is needed? 16GB? 32GB? 64GB? some cheap and used SSDs on eBay, I don't need anything special, since only running an OS and KODI.Ĥ - Anyone have experience with FLIRC and knows it works?

the TV drive is full of folders/subfolders for each series/season, the Movie drive has no folders at all, not even a main folder. The 2x3TB drives in my HTPC1 are fully shared. That way on my HTPC1 I can check/test files before I copy them over and overwrite anything. My PC has a Download folder, which is shared only to HTPC1. Making files, renaming, sorting, deleting. My PC has full read/write/delete access to the files on HTPC1 because I do all organization on my PC. Otherwise, the family would mess stuff up fast. I have the 2x3TB drives shared out to all the other HTPCs as read only. I have a couple HTPC's in the house connected via ethernet, and a tablet on WiFi.
I also need to figure out share/permissions. I am replacing my HP iR receiver, with a FLIRC Streacom internal iR receiver that says will work on Linux. since I have essentially no Linux experience at all. When I tried Ubuntu, I got stumped getting the remote to work, Kodi forum said it was simple but offered no help/advise so gave up and switched to Win7 again.īefore I try again, I was hoping for some advice/help. I had an HP iR receiver, and EventGhost on the system, and Kodi which it booted right into. The 2x3TB drives are fine, not near as loud.įigured when I switch drives, I can play around with the SSD to get it working, and when had enough frustration, plug the HDD in and watch a movie at least. Well, decided to get a small 16/32GB SSD drive as my boot drive for my HTPC, which was recently transferred to a new case that looks great, but my old boot drive really chatters and makes noise so, looking to make it a bit more quiet. I tried Ubuntu just over a year ago, and liked it, but when it came to getting help getting my network shares and iR remote working with Kodi, I got nothing from the Kodi forums and since my HTPC is my only source for entertainment, I quickly changed back to Win7圆4.
