I'm looking to integrate my digital movie/music library currently located on a ReadyNAS as well as on my main PC. The following is what I've learned from research here on the site. Please correct me where I am wrong and provide supplementation where needed (I am basically looking for a step-by-step Dummy's Guide)
I need a dealer-installed C4 driver that will allow recognition of network file storage for the NAS. Is there a way to allow C4 to search/scan my PC for media files?
Music can be handled natively through the C4 navigator and there is a C4 driver that will allow recognition of my iTunes library.
Movies need a media player which can be software or hardware based. I prefer a software-based solution and Plex seems to be a popular choice. Do I need to purchase a Plex media player and C4 driver separately or do they come together? There seem to be at least a couple of Plex drivers mentioned - do I need all of them? Where would I purchase the software?
After purchase, where is the Plex media player installed? Onto my PC or the NAS?
