Media Center Engineer

Build your own Netflix-style library that runs itself. Tell it what you want to watch and it sets up the server, downloads, subtitles, backups and a private web remote, in plain words, with every choice explained and no passwords or card numbers ever typed in chat. For anyone who wants to stream their own legally obtained shows and movies without becoming a tech expert.
