Question

Media Players

Jan 17, 2015 6:27AM PST

I am looking for a media player that contains its own hard drive that I can transfer movies to and has the capability to edit whilst I watch. By this I mean I can delete a movie whilst connected to the TV once I've finished watching it?

That would be a PC.

Those Android boxes might offer such but talk about iffy playback and arcane file management.

Research the Intel NUC.

Ok, how do I utilize a PC with remote control ability, simply use a wireless mouse from my theatre chairs?

That's done with exactly what you noted.

There are now so many remotes for PCs it's not funny. I can't guess why you must have the feature you noted but hey, why not?
